Abstract

Nutritional content of egg can be manipulated by altering hen feed. Developing an economical fowl feed supplement to produce omega-3 enriched egg from purified fish oil, produced using a proprietary method, leads to a value-added product. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of feeding an omega-3 enriched fowl feed supplement on the concentration and/or levels of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and omega-3 content in eggs obtained thereafter. Thirty BV-380 strain hens were divided into 5 groups and fed varying doses of the omega-3 supplement along with their regular feed. Eggs collected over 180 days were analyzed for EPA, DHA, and omega-3 content. Results showed that as the supplement dose increased, so did the EPA, DHA, and omega-3 concentrations in the eggs, with significant differences compared to the control group. Specifically, after 180 days, the EPA, DHA, and omega-3 content in eggs ranged from 11.4 to 28.71 mg/100 g, 116.41 to 206.62 mg/100 g, and 172.03 to 327.78 mg/100 g, respectively, depending on the supplement dose. This research demonstrates the feasibility of enhancing the nutritional value of eggs through dietary manipulation, offering a practical method for producing omega-3 enriched eggs.

使用鱼油为基础的禽类补充剂开发富含欧米加-3 的鸡蛋

鸡蛋的营养成分可通过改变母鸡饲料来调节。开发一种经济型鸡饲料补充剂，利用提纯过程中残留的鱼油生产富含欧米伽-3 的鸡蛋，可实现产品增值。本研究的目的是评估饲喂富含欧米伽-3的经济型饲料添加剂对鸡蛋中二十碳五烯酸（EPA）、二十二碳六烯酸（DHA）的浓度和/或含量以及欧米伽-3含量的影响。30 只 BV-380 品系的母鸡被分成 5 组，在喂食常规饲料的同时喂食不同剂量的欧米伽-3 补充剂。对 180 天内收集的鸡蛋进行二十碳五烯酸（EPA）、二十二碳六烯酸（DHA）和欧米伽-3 含量分析。结果显示，随着补充剂剂量的增加，鸡蛋中的 EPA、DHA 和 omega-3 浓度也在增加，与对照组相比差异显著。具体来说，180 天后，鸡蛋中的 EPA、DHA 和 omega-3 含量分别为 11.4 至 28.71 毫克/100 克、116.41 至 206.62 毫克/100 克和 172.03 至 327.78 毫克/100 克，具体取决于补充剂的剂量。这项研究证明了通过饮食调节提高鸡蛋营养价值的可行性，为利用剩余鱼油生产富含欧米加-3 的鸡蛋提供了一种实用方法。
