“…A variety of drugs including sulfonamides and chloramine (Dalgaard-Mikkelsen et al, 1952), furazolidone (Dean and Stephenson, 1958), nicarbazin (Baker et al, 1957;Mc-Loughlin et al, 1957;Polin et al, 1957), sulfamerazine (Riedel, 1950), buquinolate (Stephens et al, 1967), and amprolium (Polin et al, 1962;Stephens and Barnett, 1970) can affect production and egg quality in hens. Published reports on the effects of monensin in laying hens are lacking.…”

White Leghorn hens were fed a diet containing 0, 50, 100, or 200 p.p.m. of the anticoccidial drug monensin. A level of 200 p.p.m. reduced feed consumption, egg production, and egg weight, compared with birds receiving unmedicated feed. Weight loss was seen in hens receiving 100 and 200 p.p.m. monensin. Feed consumption decreased during the first week while the decrease in egg production was delayed until one week later. Levels of 50 and 100 p.p.m. monensin had no effect on egg production or feed consumption compared with unmedicated controls. No detectable effect was seen with any level of medication on Haugh units, egg shell thickness, or visible quality of eggs. A level of 100 p.p.m. monensin did not affect fertility and hatchability of eggs.

“…Thiamin (vitamin B1), a normal constituent of the chicken egg, participates in a number of biochemical reactions vital to embryonic development and survival (Coates, 1971). Deprival of this vitamin results in the accumulation of lactate and pyruvate in embryonic tissues (Polin et al, 1962). The importance of the adequate deposition of this vitamin in the egg is further demonstrated by the high rate of embryonic mortality on administration of anti-thiamin drugs either directly into hatching eggs or by dietary supplementation to the laying hens (Naber et al, 1954).…”

Isolation and characterization of thiamin-binding protein from chicken egg white

A thiamin-binding protein was isolated and characterized from chicken egg white by affinity chromatography on thiamin pyrophosphate coupled to aminoethyl-Sepharose. The high specificity of interaction between the thiamin-binding protein and the riboflavin-binding protein of the egg white, with a protein/protein molar ratio of 1.0, led to the development of an alternative procedure that used the riboflavin-binding protein immobilized on CNBr-activated Sepharose as the affinity matrix. The thiamin-binding protein thus isolated was homogeneous by the criteria of polyacrylamide-gel disc electrophoresis, double immunodiffusion and sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, had a mol.wt. of 38,000 +/- 2000 and was not a glycoprotein. The protein bound [14C]thiamin was a molar ratio of 1.0, with dissociation constant (Kd) 0.3 micrometer.
