TLDR
The influence on the productive value of diets for broiler chickens based on barley harvested at two stages of ripeness, when including β-glucanase in increasing amounts, was evaluated in a production experiment over three weeks.About:

The effect of β-glucanase on the utilization of starch and nitrogen by broiler chickens fed on barley of low- or high-viscosity
Klas Hesselman,Per Åman +1 more
TL;DR: Starch and nitrogen digestibility in the small intestine, calculated relative to 14C-polyethylene glycol content, was improved by β-glucanase supplementation, and the β- glucans were better degraded in the diets supplemented with β- GLUCanase.

Effect of enzyme supplementation on the performance and digestive tract size of broiler chickens fed wheat- and barley-based diets
TL;DR: Three experiments were conducted to study the effects of crude enzyme preparations on the performance and gastrointestinal tract size of chicks fed wheat and barley diets and the relative length of the duodenum and jejunum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Barley: chemistry and value-added processing.
TL;DR: Barley Chemistry and Value-Added Processing is concerned with the physical properties of barley and its use in value-added processing, as well as its applications in food and beverage formulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response of chickens fed on hull-less barley to dietary β-glucanase at different ages
TL;DR: Despite the slower growth and reduced nutrient requirements of SCWL chicks, they responded in a parallel fashion to broiler stock, and older chickens were apparently better able to cope with higher viscosity induced by feeding barley.

Studies of viscosity as the probable factor involved in the improvement of certain barleys for chickens by enzyme supplementation
TL;DR: The viscosities of extracts from chickens that were fed on barley alone were lowered by enzyme preparations that were effective in increasing the performance of chickens.

Improvement in the Nutritional Value of Barley for Chicks by Enzyme Supplementation
TL;DR: Fry et al. (1957a) have recently shown that a simple water treatment of ground pearled barley markedly improved its nutritional value and supported chick growth equal to that given by a diet containing corn.

Influence of Enzyme Supplementation and Water Treatment on the Nutritional Value of Different Grains for Poults
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of different periods of water soaking and autoclaving on the improvement of pearled barley was investigated with poults from dams maintained on a practical breeder diet.

The Effect of β-Glucanase Supplementation, Stage of Ripeness, and Storage Treatment of Barley in Diets Fed to Broiler Chickens
TL;DR: In this article, β-glucan content was reduced by anaerobic storage of the combine ripeness, EYR, and CR barley, while sucrose and raffinose were found in higher concentrations in CR barley.
