Abstract
Starch is one of the major nutrients in animal feeds and plays an important role in animal growth.Amylase,as a bio-catalyzer to depredate starch,can improve utilization efficiency of grain starch and increase animal production.The research on applications of amylase in grain processing has great significance,but there was a lack of information in feed processing and animal nutrition.In this paper,the classification and current application of amylase were reviewed,and the development of amylase on animal production was also discussed.
