“…It is suggested, however, that fermentation processes of plant materials are able to elevate the efficacy of their antioxidant and antiinflammatory properties to a level greater than that in the raw materials (Lee et al, 2008;Wang et al, 2011;Kim et al, 2012). In addition, fermented products were more palatable compared to the original materials as fermentation could produce preferred water soluble vitamin such as B 1 , B 2 and B 12 , and minerals (Kubad et al, 1997). This maybe also the reason why inclusion of relatively small amounts (10 g/kg) of FRB or FBR indiets showed significant positive effects on laying performance of birds in this experiment.…”

This experiment was aimed at investigating the effects of dietary supplementation with fermented rice bran (FRB) or fermented broken rice (FBR) on egg-laying performance, egg quality, blood parameters, and cholesterol level in egg yolk of Hy-Line Brown egg-laying hens. Altogether, 144 Hy-Line Brown egg-laying hens (32-week-old) were randomly allocated to one of 4 dietary treatment groups, with 4 replicates per treatment. Of them, 3 treatments diets were prepared by supplementing the basal diet with 0.1% probiotics (PRO), 1% fermented rice bran (FRB), or 1% fermented broken rice (FBR) at the expense of corn. Hen-day egg production was higher (P<0.05) in PRO and FRB treatment groups than in the basal treatment groups. However, feed intake, egg weight, egg mass, and feed conversion ratio did not differ among the treatment groups. Additionally, supplementation with FRB or FBR did not affect eggshell strength, eggshell thickness, egg yolk color, and Haugh unit during the feeding trial. There was no significant difference in leukocyte count. Total cholesterol level was lower (P<0.05) in the FRB treatment group than in the basal treatment groups. Asparate aminotransferase, alanine transferase, glucose, and albumin levels were unaffected by dietary supplementation with FRB or FBR. Egg yolk cholesterol level was lower (P<0.05) in the FRB and FBR treatment groups than in the basal treatment groups. In conclusion, dietary supplementation with FRB or FBR improved egg-laying performance, and reduced the levels of total serum cholesterol and cholesterol in egg yolk of Hy-Line Brown egg-laying hens.(Key words: Hy-Line Brown laying hens, laying performance, fermented rice bran, fermented broken rice, total cholesterol) † To whom correspondence should be addressed : magic100@korea.kr

The increase in human population, death from starvation, civil unrest, malnutrition and related diseases in countries of the world call for serious remedy. Agriculture alone cannot meet with the high demands of protein required worldwide. Single cell protein production, therefore, can be seen as a promising technology in combating this global challenge of food protein shortage. Microorganisms like bacteria, yeast, fungi and algae have been used as sources of single cell protein. Single cell protein not only produces protein, but can also employ the technology of waste management in converting agricultural wastes to food and feed for man and animal consumption.
