2. Description of the Related Art Phosphorus is an essential element for the growth of all living organisms, but most of the phosphorus contained in plant seeds such as cereals and legumes exists in a phytin form. Domestic animals such as humans, pigs and chickens, which are monogastric animals, cannot decompose phytin,
Phytic phosphorus cannot be used at all even when foods and feeds (cereals and beans) derived from plant seeds are consumed. Therefore, in order to favorably grow monogastric livestock, it is common practice to add inorganic phosphoric acid such as calcium phosphate to the feed as an insufficient phosphate content. In addition, phytin phosphorus in foods and feeds is not only used as a nutrient source, but is also discharged directly into excretions, causing environmental pollution (phosphorus pollution), which is a problem. In addition, phytic acid binds to proteins and inhibits the action of digestive enzymes, chelates minerals such as calcium, zinc, magnesium, and iron, and interferes with the absorption of nutritionally important minerals. Therefore, a method for removing phytic acid has been desired.

According to the present invention, a large amount of phytase can be easily and inexpensively obtained by using a fungus of the genus Penicillium. In addition, the phytase of the present invention acts stably and satisfactorily in a neutral to acidic region. Therefore, by directly adding phytase to feed or food, phytin is decomposed in the digestive tract, and the effective use of released phosphoric acid It has the effect of preventing the inhibition of mineral absorption and the prevention of environmental pollution by reducing phosphorus in excrement.
