Effects of Linseed Meal and Carotenoids from Different Sources on Egg Characteristics, Yolk Fatty Acid and Carotenoid Profile and Lipid Peroxidation

Abstract: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of supplementing the diet of laying hens with linseed meal and carotenoids from different sources on egg characteristics, yolk fatty acid and carotenoid profile, and lipid peroxidation. A 4-week experiment was conducted on 168 Lohmann Brown layers (43 weeks of age), assigned to four dietary treatments (42 hens/group; 21 replicate/groups with 2 birds/pen) consisting of a control diet (C) and three diets simultaneously supplemented with 6% linseed meal and 2% dried … Show more

“…Some phytochemicals such as phenolics, flavonoids and carotenoids can decrease fat absorption, which might reduce cholesterol content in eggs (Srinivasan 2005;Sikora et al, 2008) and increase the elimination of cholesterol through feces (Benakmoum et al, 2013). A recent study stated that carotenoid supplementation to hens feed in 43 weeks of age reduced cholesterol content in egg yolk and improved the shell thickness and yolk oxidative stability (Panaite et al, 2021).…”

“…Improving poultry hens’ productivity and egg quality by using natural botanical by-products is a very critical subject nowadays in light of the scarcity and the rising cost of conventional diet ingredients (El-Sabrout et al, 2022 , 2023 ; El-Saadany et al, 2022 ). The sensory and nutritional quality of eggs are increasingly a concern to consumers, and attributes such as yolk color are important to purchase criteria (Panaite et al, 2021 ). In this manner, nutrition can play an important role to modify poultry diet composition (Gül et al, 2022 ; El-Sabrout et al, 2023 ) and, in particular, the use of carotenoids in the diet has been a popular practice to modify that (Díaz-Gómez et al, 2017 ; Kljak et al, 2021a , b ; Panaite et al, 2021 ; Maia et al 2022 ; Meléndez-Martínez et al, 2022 ).…”
