PurePhytase

Feed enzyme · thermostable phytase

Effective enzyme solutions for a new generation of farming

  • 20,000U/g (13,333FTU/g) activity
  • Strain NTU-PHY-085
  • Poultry · swine

Unlock maximum phosphorus utilization in your feed

PurePhytase™ represents a breakthrough in feed enzyme technology, developed through collaborative research between New Hope Group China and National Taiwan University. This ultra-high-activity, thermostable phytase is exclusively licensed and manufactured by Range Pharma to liberate phytate-bound phosphorus and boost overall nutrient digestibility in poultry and swine diets.

Why PurePhytase™ outperforms

  • Ultra-high activity

    20,000U/g (13,333FTU/g) specific activity — 2.5× improvement over parental strains.

  • Exceptional thermostability

    >95% activity retained after 3 min at 85°C.

  • Broad pH tolerance

    >90% activity across pH 3.0–6.5 (retains >70% at pH 2.5 and pH 7.0).

  • Pelleting resilience

    ≈95% activity recovery after standard feed-conditioning (82°C, 45s, 16% moisture).

  • Precision nutrition

    Established matrix values for P, Ca, ME, Cys/Thr release.

Differentiators

  • Balance of activity and stability

    Industry-leading combination of high U/g and heat resistance.

  • Lower inclusion rates

    60g/MT delivers performance equivalent to 100–200g/MT of conventional products.

  • Multi-species validation

    Proven efficacy in broilers, layers and grower pigs.

  • Robust manufacturing

    Aspergillus niger system optimized for consistency (CV < 5%) and purity (≈85% enzyme protein).
