Buyer intent coverage
Beta-glucanase (feed enzyme) — what it is, where it is used, how it is chosen
Beta-glucanase addresses the soluble beta-glucans in barley and oats, which raise digesta viscosity and are a familiar cause of wet litter in poultry. That makes it a distinctly Prairie enzyme in Canada, where Alberta and Saskatchewan barley is a core energy source, with additional demand from Ontario poultry operations running barley in part of the ration. It is usually specified alongside xylanase in a combined NSP programme.
Primary uses
- Degrading beta-glucans in barley and oat based diets
- Reducing digesta viscosity and associated litter problems in poultry
- Supporting energy matrix credits on Prairie cereal diets
Applications
- Broiler and layer feeds on barley diets
- Swine feeds using barley and oats
- Enzyme package and premix manufacture
Advantages
- Directly matched to the cereals used across Western Canada
- Available in coated grades for pelleted feed
- Commonly combined with xylanase for mixed cereal diets
Limitations to consider
- Activity units are not standardised across suppliers, so nominal figures cannot be compared directly
- Little benefit in corn-based diets with low beta-glucan
- Activity losses during conditioning must be accounted for
How to choose the right grade
- State barley and oat inclusion in the target diet
- Ask for the activity unit basis and assay method
- Confirm whether a combined xylanase and glucanase product suits better
- Buyers searching for an alternative or second-source supplier should state the incumbent specification they are matching, because a like-for-like comparison depends on declared content, physical form and documentation rather than on the material name alone.
Typical grades
- Coated granulate
- Powder for mash feeds
- Liquid for post-pellet application
Comparable materials — how Beta-glucanase (feed enzyme) sits against alternatives
- Combined NSP enzyme blends
- Xylanase alone where wheat rather than barley dominates
Comparable-material reference. Grade selection is confirmed at RFQ against your process.
Procurement coverage
How to specify, order and receive Beta-glucanase (feed enzyme)
Written for procurement, quality and technical buyers in Canada and the United States. No numeric price, MOQ, stock or lead-time value is published — those are confirmed per shipment in the quotation and against the confirmed batch.
How buyers specify at RFQ
- Declared activity units per gram and the assay method used to measure them
- Thermostability rating and the pelleting or conditioning window it covers
- Presentation — coated granulate, uncoated powder or liquid for post-pellet application
- Carrier identity, particle size and dust level for premix blending
- Recovery data after conditioning and after the intended storage period
- Barley and oat inclusion in the diet
Packaging options (industry-standard)
- 25 kg bag or fibre drum — the usual micro-ingredient format
- Foil-lined or moisture-barrier packaging for hygroscopic and oxidation-sensitive actives
- Carton or pail for very low-inclusion actives handled by hand
- Packaging options and available pack sizes are confirmed with each quotation.
Storage & handling
- Store cool, dry and sealed; potency loss accelerates with heat and humidity
- Keep original moisture-barrier packaging closed until the blend is made
- Use first-in, first-out rotation and respect the declared retest or shelf-life date
- Keep away from heat sources and steam lines; activity loss is cumulative and irreversible
Documentation available
- Technical data sheet (TDS) stating the declared activity or potency and the assay method
- Safety data sheet (SDS) in the format required for Canadian import
- Certificate of analysis (COA) with the batch activity or potency result
- Stability and overage guidance for the intended pelleting or blending process
- Documentation is confirmed per batch at quotation; availability depends on the grade and supplier offered.

Technical & procurement detail
Functional role of beta-glucanase in feed+
Beta-glucanase hydrolyses the beta-glucans that make barley and oat diets viscous. In practice it addresses the sticky droppings and wet litter that follow high barley inclusion, while releasing nutrients trapped behind the cell wall.
Specifying the grade+
Beta-glucanase is often supplied in combination with xylanase because most diets carry a mixed non-starch polysaccharide load. State your cereal base and whether a single or combined activity is required.
Documentation and specification+
Feed grade material is quoted against the specification your mill or premix formulation requires. Allzone confirms grade, declared content, physical form and any carrier or coating with the supplier before quoting, and shares the technical data sheet and safety data sheet for the exact material offered.
Frequently asked questions
Is a combined xylanase and glucanase product available?+
Combination enzymes are traded and are quoted as a separate specification with their own declared activities.
Is this quoted as feed grade material?+
Yes. Feed grade is quoted as a separate specification from food or technical grade, with its own documentation for the exact material offered.
What packaging is available?+
Packaging is confirmed with the supplier at quotation for the grade and quantity discussed.
Can you deliver to feed mills across Canada?+
Yes. LTL and FTL freight is arranged across Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada, with container-direct supply for repeat volumes.
