Effect of dietary lipid saturation on the production performance of layers

Abstract: This study investigated the effects of dietary lipid saturation on production parameters of laying hens during the peak-of-lay period. Five isoenergetic (12.6 MJ AME/kg DM) and isonitrogenous (170 g CP/kg DM) diets were formulated, using a control diet (50 : 50 blend of fish-and linseed oil), fish oil (polyunsaturated n-3), sunflower oil (poly-unsaturated n-6), high oleic acid sunflower oil (mono-unsaturated n-9 ) and tallow (saturated) at a 30 g/kg inclusion level. Two hundred individually caged HyLine Silver… Show more

“…The elevated content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in enriched egg samples can be directly responsible for increase in peroxide value. King et al evaluated the peroxide value of eggs as affected by dietary lipid source and reported that fish oil supplementation resulted in the highest PV, at the level of 3.96 meq kg −1 , while in control it was 3.07 meq kg −1 . Moreover, Botsoglou et al showed that fresh shell eggs from hens supplemented with 3% fish oil, was characterized by higher peroxide values.…”
