The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1096/2009 is replaced by the following:
‘ANNEX
1 TXU is the amount of enzyme which liberates 5 micromole of reducing sugars (xylose equivalents) from wheat arabinoxylan per minute at pH 3,5 and 55 °C.
Details of the analytical methods are available at the following address of the Reference Laboratory: http://irmm.jrc.ec.europa.eu/EURLs/EURL_feed_additives/Pages/index.aspx’
Identification number of the additive Name of the holder of authorisation Additive Composition, chemical formula, description, analytical method Species or category of animal Maximum age Minimum content Maximum content Other provisions End of period of authorisation Units of activity/kg of complete feedingstuff with a moisture content of 12 % Category of zootechnical additives. Functional group: digestibility enhancers. 4a62 BASF SE Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase
EC 3.2.1.8
Additive composition
Preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 109.713) having a minimum activity of:
solid form: 5 600 TXUf1/g
liquid form: 5 600 TXU/ml
Characterisation of the active substance
Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 109.713)
Analytical method f2
Viscosimetric method based on decrease of viscosity produced by action of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase on the xylan-containing substrate (wheat arabinoxylan) at pH 3,5 and 55 °C
Chickens for fattening — 280 TXU — 1.
In the directions for use of the additive and premixture, indicate the storage temperature, storage life and stability to pelleting.
2.
Recommended maximum dose per kilogram of complete feedingstuff for chickens for fattening and ducks: 800 TXU.
3.
For use in feed rich in starch and non-starch polysaccharides (mainly beta-glucans and arabinoxylans).
