“…The reduction in egg shell thickness in the group fed 20% of dried baker's yeast supports the results of Oguntona et al (1983) who reported that high levels of yeast in diets reduced the availability of phosphorus. A similar explanation was given by Yoshida et al (1974) who indicated that egg shells of hens receiving 15% yeast were 0.01 mm thinner ( p<0.05) than those of the control hens and attributed the thinner shells to the high phosphorus content of the yeast diet. The values of egg shell thickness and egg albumen height of groups fed diets containing 4, 8, 12 and 16% of dried baker's yeast were similar to those of control group in the present study.…”

“…No data were obtained suggesting that the yeast feeding was unfavorable to produce the meat and eggs of good quality7, 8). No evidence was obtained indicating that the yeast contained a large quantity of heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic compounds to be injurious to human health through the meat and eggs produced by the yeast feeding.…”
