Popis:	The study was carried out to investigate the effect of Maxigrain ® enzyme supplementation of sugarcane scrapping meal-based diets on the nutrient digestibility and serum biochemical variables of laying Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) in ant 8 week experiment. Six experimental diets tagged T100, T10100, T10200, T150, T15100 and T15200 were formulated to be isonitrogenous (20%CP) and isocaloric (2786.72 Kcal/kg ME). Diets T100, T10100 and T10200 contained 10% crude fibre and 0, 100 and 200 ppm enzyme while T150, T15100 and T10200 contained 15% crude fibre and 0, 100 and 200 ppm enzyme, such that T100 and T150 function as the control for T10100 and T10200, and T15100 and T15200, respectively. Three hundred and sixty 6 weeks old laying quails were randomly allocated to the dietary treatments at the rate of 60 birds per diet. Each treatment was replicated 4 times in a 3 x 2 factorial arrangement having 15 birds per replicate. The results showed that enzyme supplementation improved (P
