“…The average amounts of triglyceride and total cholesterol in the yolk were reduced in the treatment group compared with the control. These results were similar to those of previous experiments utilizing l ‐carnitine or GABA in feed. Adabi et al and Kazemi‐Fard et al reported that l ‐carnitine reduced egg yolk cholesterol ( P < 0.05).…”

“…Adabi et al and Kazemi‐Fard et al reported that l ‐carnitine reduced egg yolk cholesterol ( P < 0.05). Oso et al demonstrated how l ‐carnitine reduced plasma lipid, total egg yolk cholesterol and triglyceride ( P < 0.05). It is possible that l ‐carnitine is associated with increased systemic breakdown of cholesteryl esters, increase in reverse cholesterol transport and excretion, and stabilization of a phospholipid‐based structure for very‐low‐density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) particles .…”

“…On the other side, Al-Daraji and Tahir (2014) reported that dietary supplementation with L-carnitine (50, 100 and 150 mg kgG 1 diet) caused significant increases in egg fertility and hatchability and significantly decreased the embryonic mortality during incubation. Also, Oso et al (2014) found that dietary L-carnitine supplementation for turkey breeder hens produced the highest egg fertility and significantly reduced the late embryonic mortality. Such positive effects of dietary L-carnitine on hatchability of eggs might have been related to the increased egg fertility, the decreased late embryonic mortality and/or the prolonged incubation period.…”

“…However, Salmanzadeh et al (2013) found that injection of L-carnitine into eggs of turkey breeder hens on day 5 of incubation caused significant reductions in hatchability of fertilized eggs. On the other hand, dietary supplementation with L-carnitine has been reported to positively affect the hatchability of eggs (Oso et al, 2014;Al-Daraji and Tahir, 2014) while some investigators found no effect (Salmanzadeh, 2011).…”

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of in ovo L-carnitine injection at three incubational ages on hatchability of broiler breeders and post-hatch performance. Four doses of L-carnitine (0.0, 4, 8 and 12 mg/100 μL) were injected into fertile eggs at days 14, 16 and 18 of incubation. Hatched chicks were individually weighed and fertile hatchability was calculated. Birds were kept in batteries and fed common starter and grower diets. Means of weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion were estimated. Mortality was also monitored. A slaughter test was made to evaluate the relative weights of carcass yield, front and hind parts and the edible organs. No deaths occurred during a 7-week feeding trial. Hatchability was unaffected by the injected dose of L-carnitine but it significantly improved when eggs were injected on day 14 of incubation compared with those injected on days 16 or 18. Although, total feed intake of chicks was not affected by in ovo L-carnitine injection, cumulative weight gain was positively affected. Birds hatched from eggs that were injected with L-carnitine at 8.0 or 12.0 mg/100 μL achieved significantly better feed conversion compared with the control group. Injection with 12.0 mg/100 μL positively affected the percentages of front parts but decreased those of liver and gizzard and had no effect on other traits examined. It is concluded that in ovo L-carnitine injection is beneficial for hatchability on day 14 while its injection at 8.0 mg/100 μL on day 16 of incubation is advantageous to subsequent performance.

“…In avian species, it is special that the hen‐egg nutrient transfer is happened before the embryonic development. Actually, maternal dietary strategies can easily been used in birds to increase the performance and warfare of post‐hatch progeny (Zhao et al., ; Oso et al., ; Sun et al., ), as the nutrients composition of eggs is changeable with the hens' diet regimens (Botsoglou et al., ). Of particular interest is the application of maternal nutritional strategies to increase the antioxidant status and bone quality of progeny, which shows a potential to decrease the economic loss caused by oxidative stress and skeletal disorder.…”

This study investigated the effects of maternal canthaxanthin (CX, 6 mg/kg) and 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-D , 0.069 mg/kg) supplementation on the performance of Cherry Valley ducklings under two different vitamin regimens. A total of 780 duck breeder females and 156 males were randomly allotted to two diets with or without the addition of the mixture of CX and 25-OH-D (CX+25-OH-D ) for 32 weeks. Ducklings (males and females separately) hatched from eggs laid at 24 weeks of the duck breeder trial were fed with a NRC vitamin regimen, and ducklings (males and females separately) hatched from eggs laid at 32 weeks of the duck breeder trial were fed with a HIGH vitamin regimen (had higher levels of all vitamins except biotin than NRC vitamin regimen), for 14 days. The results showed that, maternal CX+25-OH-D supplementation increased the shank pigmentation for 7-days post hatch in ducklings under a NRC vitamin regimen, and for 14-days post hatch in ducklings under a HIGH vitamin regimen. Growth performance, antioxidant status and serum phosphorus of ducklings under a NRC vitamin regimen were increased by maternal CX+25-OH-D supplementation; however, these positive effects were not observed in ducklings under a HIGH vitamin regimen. Males revealed increased growth performance in ducklings under both NRC and HIGH vitamin regimens. Sexual differences in shank pigmentation, antioxidant status, tibia strength and serum phosphorus were not consistent as they were dependent on maternal CX+25-OH-D status or dietary vitamin regimens. Data suggest that maternal CX+25-OH-D supplementation is important for starter ducklings under a NRC vitamin regimen, but not HIGH vitamin regimen.
