“…These results are consistent with previous observations that have indicated that lycopene is much less efficient than other carotenoids in terms of egg yolk deposition (Karadas et al, 2006). Sikder et al (1998) has attributed these differences to the different characteristics of the various types of carotenoids. A previously published lycopene doseresponse study has demonstrated the saturation of lycopene absorption at increasing doses (DiwadkarNavsariwala et al, 2004).…”

This study investigated the effects of the addition of different antioxidants to broiler diets on their live performance, liver antioxidant composition and concentrations, immune response, and meat and skin color. A total of 945 three-day-old Ross 308 broiler chicks of both genders were randomly allocated to one of nine dietary treatments (n=105), with three replicates 35 chicks per pen, as follows: T1: control (commercially available corn-and soybean-based broiler diet); T2: selenium (control+0.5 mg/kg Sel-Plex TM Se yeast); T3: vitamin E (control+200 mg/ kg Kavimix-E-50 α-tocopherol acetate); T4: lutein (control+100 mg/kg 5% Lutein Beads XB); T5: lycopene (control+100 mg/kg 5% Lyco Beads XB);T6: canthaxanthin (control+25 mg/kg 10% Carophyll . Feed (starter, grower, developer and finisher phases) and water were provided ad libitum for 42 days. Body weights, feed intake, feed conversion values and plasma carotene concentrations were recorded weekly, and liver antioxidant concentrations were recorded at the end of the experiment. Newcastle disease (LaSota) vaccination was performed on day 22. HI titers were measured on days 14, 21, 35 and 42 to determine the effects of the antioxidants on the immune system.The addition of selenium, vitamin E, and carotenoid supplements to the commercial broiler diet significantly increased antioxidant accumulation in the liver and the plasma. All antioxidants assessed significantly improved the immune response. Selenium and vitamin E supplementation also significantly improved total carotenoid concentrations in the plasma. The carotenoids enhanced skin and meat color. None of the supplements tested influenced growth (p>0.05).

“…Nevertheless, in our study, the presence of yellow lupin seeds in laying hen diets improved some egg quality parameters. Sikder et al (1998) and Dvořák et al (2007), and also many other authors, have underlined the fact that dietary composition significantly influences yolk colour -an important egg quality index for consumers. In our experiment, significant improvement of yolk colour (La Roche scale) was obtained as an effect of the rise in yellow lupin seeds content in the diets and increased levels from 1.59 (in group with 10% yellow lupin seeds addition) to 3.97 (in group with 25% yellow lupin seeds addition) in 1 kg of feed mixture.…”

“…The effect of raw materials on yolk colour is a well-known phenomenon: maize contains lutein and zeaxanthin at concentrations of 20 to 25 mg of xanthophyll · kg −1 , carrot meal contains 54 to 65 mg of xanthophyll · kg −1 (Sikder et al, 1998;Dvořák et al, 2007). Maize silage (grains and cobs) exert a positive effect on yolk colour when included in diets for laying hens.…”

BACKGROUND: Supplying egg-laying hens with different forage materials may influence egg production and quality. The aim of this study was to examine the short-term effects of standard feed plus 70 g day −1 per hen of three coloured carrot varieties (orange, yellow and purple) as forage material in comparison with a standard feed control on egg production, egg yolk colour and deposition of carotenoids in the yolk.
