Abstract:Effect of dietary tea polyphenol (TP) on the content of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), catechin (C) in egg yolk, and impact on egg quality and production was investigated. For this purpose, 315 healthy Gallus domestiaus aged 42 weeks were selected and randomly divided into 7 groups. The experimental group added 0.02, 0.05, 0.09, 0.14, 0.19 and 0.24% TP to the basic diet. The control group (CK) was fed basal diet. After 10, 20 and 30 days, 15 eggs were randomly selected from each group for egg quality testing… Show more
