TOTAL of 300 hens and 60 males of (the Bandarah strain at 30 weeks old) were chosen at random allocated to 3 groups, with 5 replicates of 20 hens and 4 cocks/each housed in individual cages in a semi-closed house. Birds received one of three dietary treatments content zinc sulfate or organic zinc as zinc methionine in two levels of 40 or 60 mg/kg, the experiment lasted for 20 weeks from 30-50 weeks of age. Results showed that a dietary Zn-Met 40 or 60 mg/kg diet boosted egg production and improved feed conversion ratio, egg weight, and egg mass. Zinc methionine showed distinctions between external and internal egg quality, Zn content of the egg, and carbonic anhydrase activity compared with zinc sulfate. A high level of Zn-Met had increased estrogen, progesterone, and T 3 . Also, Humoral, and cellular immunity were increased, and improved semen quality. It could be concluded that dietary Zn-Met at 60 mg/kg improved egg generation, egg value, semen quality, and immune status of laying Bandarah strain.

“…In mammals, Zn enters the fetus through metallothionein, which is necessary for fetal growth and development ( 41 ). Zn also plays an important role in embryo development and egg hatchability, because the content of Zn in eggs is positively correlated with egg hatchability ( 3 ). It has been reported that “Zn sparks,” consisting of thousands of zinc vesicles, are triggered after the fertilization of a mammalian egg and are required to induce the development of the fertilized egg toward the embryo ( 42 ).…”

“…Zinc (Zn) is an essential trace element that participates in the composition of numerous enzymatic systems and has various functions, involving energy, carbohydrate, nucleic acid and protein metabolism ( 1 ). In the poultry industry, Zn plays a critical role in laying performance, egg quality ( 2 ), reproductive performance ( 3 ), and antioxidant activity ( 4 ). In the plant-feeding ingredients, Zn is often complexed with phytic acid, thereby hindering its absorption ( 5 ).…”

Effects of Zinc Methionine Hydroxy Analog Chelate on Laying Performance, Serum Hormone Levels, and Expression of Reproductive Axis Related Genes in Aged Broiler Breeders

et al. 2022

Inorganic zinc (Zn) supplements are commonly used in poultry feeds, but their low utilization results in the increase of Zn excretion. Thus, to provide a new perspective for the substitution of inorganic Zn, a novel Zn methionine hydroxy analog chelate (Zn-MHA) was studied in the present study to evaluate its effects on laying performance, serum hormone indexes and reproductive axis-related genes in broilers breeders. A total of 480 Hubbard breeders (56-week-old) were fed a basal diet (containing 27.81 mg Zn/kg) without Zn addition for 2 weeks, and then allocated to 4 groups with 6 replicates (each replicate consisting of 10 cages and 2 breeders per cage) for 10 weeks. Four treatment diets given to broiler breeders included the basal diet added with 25, 50, and 75 mg/kg of Zn-MHA and 100 mg/kg of Zn sulfate (ZnSO4). The laying rate, egg weight and feed conversation ratio increased in the 75 mg/kg Zn-MHA group compared to the ZnSO4 group. The eggshell thickness was not decreased with the addition of 50 mg/kg and 75 mg/kg Zn-MHA in the diet compared to the 100 mg/kg ZnSO4 group. There was a significant improvement in the reproductive performance of breeders in the 75 mg/kg Zn-MHA group, including the fertility and 1-day-old offspring weight. Besides, serum sex hormone levels including FSH and P4 increased significantly in 75 mg/kg Zn-MHA group. No significant effect on the ovarian weight or the number of follicles in broiler breeders was observed by supplementing Zn-MHA. Compared to the 100 mg/kg ZnSO4 group, dietary supplementation with 75 mg/kg of Zn-MHA showed an up-regulation of the FSHR mRNA in the granular layer of follicles. However, dietary supplementation of Zn-MHA had no effects on mRNA expressions of the ovarian LHR and PRLR genes. These findings reinforce the suggestion that Zn-MHA (75 mg/kg) could replace ZnSO4 (100 mg/kg) as a Zn supplement in diet of broiler breeders, which resulted in better laying and reproduction performances by regulating the expression levels of reproductive axis related genes and serum hormone levels.
