The nutritive value of wheat, barley and triticale can be very variable. Viscosity is one of the main factors contributing to this variability.

Enzymes break down the cell wall components in these ingredients that increase viscosity in the digestive tract. VEBA provides a measurement of viscosity in the digestive tract. The lower the level of viscosity the more effective the enzyme.

The VEBA service enables the following:

• To identify opportunities where feed enzymes can be used to improve performance
• To help identify reasons behind reduced bird performance or poor litter quality
• To help determine/demonstrate feed enzyme efficacy
• To help evaluate process stability of a feed enzyme
• To help differentiate the viscosity reducing capabilities of different feed enzymes
• To help determine the homogeneity of the feed enzyme product added to the feed
• To help predict potential performance improvements attributable to feed enzymes
