“…Payne et al found that average hen-day production is not affected by Se-source, but Seyeast increased the Se egg concentration more effectively than selenite [6]. Canogullari et al reported that the Se levels in egg yolk and egg albumin were higher in Se-supplemented groups compared to unsupplemented controls (p<0.05) and established that organic Se forms were more effective than inorganic Se as supplements [7]. Yaroshenko et al pointed out that supplementation of 0.4 ppm Se to hens resulted in production of Se-enriched eggs with a prolonged period of freshness [8].…”

We report the effects of time of storage, temperature, and supplementation with sodium selenite- and selenium-enriched yeast on the quality of quail eggs. For this study, 90 10-week-old female Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) with similar body size were caged individually and randomly divided into five groups of 18 quails each. One group was fed a normal diet and served as control. A second group was supplemented with 0.2 mg/kg sodium selenite (In-Se) and three groups supplemented with 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 mg/kg of a commercially available selenium-enriched yeast (O-Se1, O-Se2, and O-Se3, respectively). The eggs were collected at third and fourth weeks of the experiment and were stored at 4°C and 20°C for 0, 15, 30, and 45 days. Extension of the storage time to 45 days at 20°C resulted in significant deterioration of egg quality. The albumen Haugh unit (HU), pH, albumen index, yolk index, and egg weight loss were the most important parameters influenced by the nature of the selenium sources, storage time, and temperature. Storage time and temperature were also significant for egg weight loss, HU, and albumen and yolk indexes. The results show that supplementation with selenium yeast significantly affected shell weight, shell thickness, HU, albumen index, yolk index, and pH. The HU decreased with increased storage time and temperature. Higher levels of Se-yeast administration resulted in greater HU compared to the selenite and control groups.

“…The use of Se-enriched yeast in laying hen diets increases selenium content of egg (Utterback et al 2005;Gajcevic et al 2009;Attia et al 2010). It is further reported that selenium sources help increasing egg production traits as well as fertility and hatchability (Attia et al 2010;Cano gullari et al 2010;Waseem et al 2016). In particular, expansions and commercialisation of organic sources of selenium have originated a new era in the availability of Se-enriched products (Fisinin et al 2009).…”

A study to examine the impact of selenium forms on productive traits and egg selenium deposition in Aseel was conducted. A total of 96 selenium-treated 21-week-aged Aseel birds were used, 84 females (1726.25 ± 121.65 g) and 12 males (1973.17 ± 182.84 g) from Lakha, Mushki, Peshaweri and Mianwali varieties. Birds were distributed into four experimental groups (21 females and 3 males/variety), further subdivided into three treatment groups A, B and C with 8 birds each, 7 females and 1 male (4 varieties Â3 Se treatments Â8 birds/treatment). Group A and B were the experimental while, C was a control group. Ration for the birds of group A included 0.3 ppm Se-enriched yeast, group B with 0.3 ppm sodium selenite, while, group C received a basal ration containing no selenium. Experimental birds were maintained separately in battery cages from 22 to 42 weeks. The pullets received Se-enriched yeast (organic source of selenium) supplemented ration gained the sexual maturity earlier (168.61 ± 0.64 d) and represented increased (p .05) body weight (1973.56 ± 3.43 g); egg production (38.17 ± 1.27%); egg mass (112.52 ± 2.63 g); FCR/dozen eggs (3.26 ± 0.06); FCR/kg egg mass (6.77 ± 0.23) and the selenium contents in the whole egg (11.70 ± 0.01 lg), in egg yolk (8.31 ± 0.01 lg) and in egg albumen (3.33 ± 0.01 lg). It is concluded that Se-enriched yeast is more potent than sodium selenite and is a key supplement used to improve production performance and egg-selenium status of Aseel. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…Biological antioxidants, R. Bras. Zootec., 46(2):123-129, 2017 such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and selenium, react with free radicals or precursor metabolites and convert them into less reactive molecules, leading to the delay or prevention of oxidation of biological molecules (Surai, 2007;Baylan et al, 2010). It is increasingly appreciated that diet plays a pivotal role in maintaining animal health, productivity, and reproductive performance of farm animals and poultry.…”

“…The need for selenium may change in stress conditions, such as low-protein intake. It is well-documented that dietary selenium supplementation improves feed efficiency, minimizes changes of blood biochemical parameters, elevates antioxidant activities, and decreases lipid peroxidation products in stressed birds (Fan et al, 2009;Canogullari et al, 2010).…”

The present study sought to examine the effects of low-protein diets supplemented with natural and synthetic antioxidants on reproductive traits and performance of male Japanese quail. A total of 144 one-day-old quail chicks were randomly assigned to receive four different treatments, including a control diet (a basal diet) without antioxidant supplementation, low-protein diet without antioxidant supplementation, low-protein diet supplemented with the E-selenium antioxidant (a combination of vitamin E and selenium), and low-protein diet supplemented with the antioxidant Loxidan (a combination of propyl galat, ethoxyquin, and citric acid). Throughout the study, feed and water were provided ad libitum from one to 45 days of age. Performance values were calculated at the end of the experimental period. Blood samples were collected from the wing vein of six male birds randomly selected from each treatment group. Subsequently, blood samples were used to measure serum testosterone levels by ELISA. A total of 36 slides were prepared from testes of 12 adult quail for histological studies. Results from this study showed that there was a significant increase in blood testosterone levels of quail fed the antioxidant Loxidan. An increased number of spermatogonia was found in quail fed both antioxidants. In addition, a significant increase was found in the number of spermatid cells in quail fed a low-protein diet with antioxidants. Surprisingly, spermatozoa cells showed a significant elevation in quail fed antioxidants as compared with those fed low-protein diets. Interestingly, a significant increase was observed in the final body weight of the quail fed antioxidants. Therefore, it can be deduced that antioxidant intake not only can improve reproductive indices, such as testosterone levels and testicular tissue in Japanese quail, but is also useful for performance of quail fed low-protein diets.
