“…The most frequently investigated was the essential oil which showed antioxidant, antimicrobial and hepatoprotective activity (Ruberto et al, 2000;Ozbek et al, 2003). The chemical composition of the volatile oil fraction has been well described in the literature (Piccaglia and Marotti, 2001;Badoc et al, 1994;Damianova et al, 2004). Earlier investigation of F. vulgare fruit led to the isolation of phenolic components with antihypertensive activity (Ono et al, 1996;Nyemba et al, 1995).…”

Phytochemical study of the aerial parts of Foeniculum vulgare led to the isolation of seven compounds isolated for the first time from this species. After isolation and purification, these metabolites were characterized on the basis of spectroscopic analyses using 1D and 2D NMR as well as mass spectrometry. Furthermore, antimicrobial activity of the crude extract was evaluated using agar diffusion method. The antimicrobial test results showed that the crude extract had a great potential as antimicrobial activity against all 9 microorganisms especially fungal strains.

“…The effect of medicinal plants on egg cholesterol and triglyceride level is ascribed to their active components. The main active component in fennel fruit is anethole, which is a phytosterol itself (Badoc et al, 1994;Piccaglia and Marotti, 2001;. Anethole, like other plant sterols, alters metabolic pathways in the body of laying hens, leading to cholesterol and triglyceride reduction.…”

Keywords Fennel, heat stress, laying hens, antioxidant, feed.Submitted: March/2014 Approved: November/2014 ABSTRACT In this study, one hundred and twenty 40-wk-old White Leghorn laying hens were submitted to two different thermal conditions (24° C vs. 34° C) and were fed three levels (0, 10, or and 20 g/kg of diet) of fennel fruits (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) as a feed additive in. This study was carried out according to a factorial design consisting of two temperatures and three fennel levels with five 5 replicates each (n = 2 × 3 × 5). Performance, egg production, egg quality, and oxidative product levels (malondialdehyde, MDA, and carbonyl) in the eggs were measured before and after heat exposure. The results showed that the tested temperatures did not affect egg production (p>0.05), but the production of eggs with broken shell and feed intake were affected by heat stress (p<0.05). The different temperatures also affected egg quality (p<0.05), reducing egg weight (EW), eggshell thickness (EST), eggshell strength (ESS), Haugh units (HU), albumen height (AH), and albumen weight (AW). At the high environmental temperature, MDA and carbonyl egg contents increased (p<0.05), while fennel consumption reduced the values of both parameters. Heat stress had no effect on yolk cholesterol levels (p>0.05), but increased yolk triglyceride levels. Hens that consumed fennel presented lower yolk cholesterol and triglyceride levels (p<0.05). In general, fennel fruit influenced egg yolk cholesterol and triglyceride contents, and because of its antioxidant properties, it may alleviate the adverse effects of heat stress on laying hens.
