AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current alkaline phosphatases, such as Calf Intestinal Alkaline Phosphatase (CIAP), lack gastric or pepsin stability, making them unsuitable for use as animal feed additives.

Method used

Development of polypeptides with alkaline phosphatase activity that are stable in gastric conditions, derived from bacterial or fungal origins, or variants thereof, specifically designed for use in animal feed.

Benefits of technology

The stable alkaline phosphatase polypeptides effectively maintain their activity in the gastrointestinal tract, enhancing animal health and performance by improving intestinal health and reducing pathogens.
