“…Poultry cannot synthesize these compounds and must obtain carotenoids from their diets [4]. The absorption and accumulation of carotenoids are affected by diets, diseases, and parasitic infestations [6,7]. The levels of plasma carotenoids were markedly reduced after chickens were infected with Eimeria acervulina and Eimeria tenella [6,41].…”

“…Several synthetic colorants and natural source pigments, which have the disadvantage of being more expensive, have been used in feeds in China to give the finished poultry a desirable yellow color. The absorption and accumulation of pigment in broiler tissue have been shown to be altered by many factors, such as diet composition, disease, and parasitic infestations [6,7]. Carcass color traits are also known to be affected by diets treated with probiotics [8,9].…”

“…One of the most abundant natural sources of lutein is the Marigold flower (Tagetes erecta), which upon extraction with organic solvents yields a mixture of trans-lutein diesters (Tyczkowski and Hamilton, 1991) (Fig. 1), esterified with C 12 -C 16 fatty acids.…”

“…The crude carotenoid fraction was also further separated in a preparative flash column chromatography equipped with silica gel in a bench scale starting from 5 kg of alga and achieving 6 g lutein with its yield of 50% [7]. From the practical point of view, it has been stated that chromatographic separation is economically more feasible than recrystallization of lutein due to a lower yield achieved by recrystallization and its more time consuming procedure [16]. In addition Phaeodactylum tricornutum species was saponified with KOH/ethanol followed by extraction of the unsaponified fraction with hexane and hydrolyzing fatty acids with HCl and extraction of fatty acids with hexane [19].…”
