Digestive Enzyme Activity and Temperature: Evolutionary Constraint or Physiological Flexibility? [PDF]
AnimalsTemperature strongly influences physiological processes in ectotherms, including digestion, yet its effects on digestive enzyme activity remain poorly understood. We examined the temperature dependence of digestive performance in eight Mediterranean wall

Ineffective degradation of immunogenic gluten epitopes by currently available digestive enzyme supplements. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Due to the high proline content of gluten molecules, gastrointestinal proteases are unable to fully degrade them leaving large proline-rich gluten fragments intact, including an immunogenic 33-mer from α-gliadin and a 26-mer from γ-gliadin.

Effects of protease and non-starch polysaccharide enzyme on performance, digestive function, activity and gene expression of endogenous enzyme of broilers. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Three hundred one-day-old male broiler chickens (Ross-308) were fed corn-soybean basal diets containing non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzyme and different levels of acid protease from 1 to 42 days of age to investigate the effects of exogenous enzymes ...
