“…Brazilian law is based on FAO/OMS Committee to determine the use of synthetic pigments. This law prohibits a significant number of synthetic pigments on animal's feed because of toxic effects in products consumed by humans (Carvalho, Cipolli, Ormenese, Carvalho, & Silva, 2009).…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate productive performance and egg quality of Japanese quails (Cortunix japonica) fed with synthetic and natural pigments. The treatments used were: 0.8% paprika extract (Capsicum annuum), 0.8% marigold flower extract, 4% paprika extract and 4% marigold flower extract and 0.045% synthetic pigment (Canthaxanthin) in feed. A total of 240 Japanese quails at 20 weeks of age were distributed in a completely randomized experimental design with five treatments and six replicates, with eight quails per experimental unit (30 experimental units). There was no difference (p > 0.05) for the evaluated parameters, except for yolk color which showed significant difference (p < 0.05) between the treatments used. The inclusion of 0.8% natural pigments in diet of Japanese quails can be used to substitute canthaxathin because it is effective on improving yolk color without affect performance and the quails egg quality.

“…Birds consumed carotenoid supplemented diet as a part of nutrient improves performance and product quality (Langi et al., 2018; Zhu et al., 2018). Dietary addition of pigments to poultry diet improves the colour of skin, flesh and egg yolk (De Carvalho, Cipolli, Ormenese, Carvalho, & da Silva, 2009; Hamelin, Martinez‐Aleson, & Martínez, 2013). Furthermore, it is reported that carotenoid pigments improve the antibody production against Newcastle disease virus (Saino, Stradi, Ninni, Pini, & Moller, 1999), on the other hand Cheng, Shen, Pang, and Chen (2001) documented that dietary carotenoids produce non‐significant effect on antibody titre against fowl cholera disease.…”

Carotenoids are one of the widespread and ubiquitous lipid-soluble pigments that produce a wide range of colours which are universally found in various plants, microalgae, bacteria and fungi. Recently, interest in using carotenoids as feed ingredients has increased markedly owing to their bioactive and health-promoting properties. In terms of applications, carotenoid-rich products are widely available in the form of food and feed additive, supplements and natural colourants. Carotenoids play a versatile biological role that contributes to therapeutic effects, including anticancer, immunomodulators, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antidiabetic and neuroprotective. Dietary supplementation of carotenoids not only improves the production performance and health of poultry birds, but also enhances the quality of egg and meat. Several studies have suggested that the supplementation of plant derived carotenoids revealed numerous health-promoting activities in poultry birds. Carotenoids reduce the oxidative stress in pre-hatched and post-hatched birds through different mechanisms, including quench free radicals, activating antioxidant enzymes and inhibiting the signalling pathways. Use of carotenoids in poultry feed as a part of nutrient that confers bird health and improve product quality. Carotenoids play a critical role for the pigmentation of egg yolk, skin, legs, beak, comb, feather and fat. Birds consumed carotenoid deficient diet resulting hues of their egg yolk or pale coloured skin. Therefore, uniform pigmentation generally indicates the health status and quality of the poultry products. This review aims to gather recent information regarding bioactive properties of carotenoids and highlight pharmaceutical and health beneficial effects of carotenoids for the poultry industry. Additionally, it explores the importance of carotenoids as alternative feed ingredients for poultry to boost the production performance and replace synthetic medicine and nutrients.

“…A característica pigmentação da gema foi afetada pela adição do extrato oleoso de urucum e a oleoresina de páprica na ração, expresso pela equação de regressão (y = 4,1108 + 17,0349x; R 2 = 0,34). Em conformidade estimada com isso, Carvalho et al (2009) encontraram resultados semelhantes, quando avaliaram a utilização de sementes de urucum em níveis de 1%, 1,25%, 1,50% e 1,75%, mostrando coloração da gema entre T1 (grupo controle) -12,09 a T5 (1,75%) -36,42, verificaram aumento significativo entre os tratamentos e o grupo controle.…”
