Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of feeding organic acid mixture and yeast culture on the Performance and e99 quality of laying hens fur sixteen weeks. Four hundred and fifty 19-wk-old ISA Brown layers were alloted to five treatments with five replications of each. The supplemental levels of organic acid mixture(OAM) and yeast culture(YC) in the experimental diets were 0(control), OAM 0.1, 0.2%, and YC 0.1, 0.2%, respectively. Corn -Soy basal diet containing 16.0% CP and ME 2,770 kca1/kg ME. Eggs were collected and weighed every day. Eg3 Production, fred intake and fled conversion were recorded in every four weeks. Fatty acid composition of e99 Yolk, e99she11 breaking strength, thickness and Haugh unit were measured a(her every eight weeks. Egg Production and daily egg mass of birds fed 0.2% OAM and 0.1% YC tended to be higher than those of the other treatment groups. Egg weight was the highest in hens fed with 0.2% OAM treatment, but was not significantly different. Feed conversion of hens in all OAM and YC treatments was lower than those of control, but was not statistically different. Eggshell breaking strength of hens on OAM treatments tended to be higher than those of YC treatment and control. Haugh units of the birds fed OAM was significantly higher than controls (P<0.05). 599 yolk color score of OAM treatment was higher than those of YC treatments and control, but the difference was not significant. At 27-wk-old, arachidonnic acid content in eggs from the birds fed 0.1% OAM diet was significantly higher(P<0.05) than controls. The results of this experiment indicated that dietary organic acid mixture and yeast culture tended to improve the egg Production and internal egg quality.
유기산제와 효모 배양물의 급여가 산란계의 생산성 및 계란 품질에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 19주령 이사브라운 갈색계를 이용하여 16주간 사양실험을 시행하였다. 처리구는 무침가구인 대조구, 유기산제와 효모 배양물을 각각 0.1, 0.2% 수준으로 하였고 처리구당 5반복으로 반복당 18수씩 총 450수를 체중이 비슷하게 하여 완전 임의배치하였다. 산란율과 난중, 사료섭취 량은 4주 단위로 측정하였으며, 계란의 난각 강도. 난각 두게, Haugh unit, 난황색을 처리구별로 측정하였다. 난황의 지방산 조성은 실험 개시 후 8주 간격으로 측정하였다. 본 실험의 결과, 효모 배양물 0.1%급여시 31∼34주령의 산란율은 97.1%로 대조구에 비하여 증가하였다(P<0.05). 23∼26주령에서 1일 산란량은 유기산제 0.2% 급여구가 증가하였고(P<0.05), 31∼34주령에서는 효모 배양물 0.1% 급여구가 대조구에 비하여 현저하게 증가하였다(P<0.05). 사료섭취량은 유기산제와 효모 배양물이 대조구와는 타이가 없었지만 27∼30주령에서 효모 배양물 0.1% 급여구는 유기산제 0.1% 급여구 보다 증가하였다(P<0.05). 난각 강도는 34주령에서 유기산제 0.1% 급여구가 효모배양물 0.1% 급여구에 비해서 증가하였으나(P<0.05), 대조구와 차이는 없었다. 34주령에 측정한 Haugh unit은 유기산제 급여구가 대조구보단 현저하게 높았으며(P<0.05), 난황색은 처리구간에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 유기산제 0.1%급여구는 난황내 C20:4의 함량을 대조구에 비하여 증가시켰고(27주령)(P<0.05), 유기산제 0.1%, 0.2%급여구는 Cl6:0의 함량을 현저하게 감소시켰다 (34주령)(P<0.05).
