Qualidade de ovos e desempenho produtivo de poedeiras em segundo ciclo de postura alimentadas com microminerais quelatados a aminoácidos / Egg quality and productive performance of laying hens in second cycle of posture fed with aminoacid chelated trace minerals

The goal of this research was to evaluate egg quality and performance of laying hens at the second laying cycle, fed with minerals from an organic source. The control treatment consisted of basal diet with inorganic trace minerals, whereas the other treatments consisted of organic copper, iron, manganese, and zinc at levels of 100%, 90%, 80%, and 70%. Physical and chemical analyses were performed to evaluate egg quality. The average egg weight reduced in the test diet; however, egg mass, as well as the other performance variables evaluated, did not suffer influence of treatments. The percentage of egg protein decreased; however, mineral matter content and egg shell increased with the use of organic minerals, as well as an improvement in the egg quality parameters occurred. The supplementation with organic trace mineral source of the diet of laying hens did not compromise internal egg quality. The total replacement of inorganic sources for levels of organic minerals in the diet of birds provided maintenance on the performance and improved shell quality.

Objetivou-se com esta pesquisa avaliar o desempenho produtivo e a qualidade de ovos de poedeiras em segundo ciclo de postura alimentadas com microminerais de fonte orgânica. O tratamento controle foi composto por dieta basal e microminerais inorgânicos e os demais tratamentos consistiram da inclusão dos microminerais cobre, ferro, manganês e zinco orgânicos, em substituição total à fonte inorgânica, em níveis de 100%, 90%, 80% e 70%. Análises físicas e bromatológicas foram realizadas para avaliar a qualidade dos ovos. O peso médio dos ovos diminuiu nas dietas teste; no entanto, a massa de ovos bem como as demais variáveis de desempenho avaliadas não sofreram influencia dos tratamentos. O percentual de proteína do ovo diminuiu; entretanto, a matéria mineral do conteúdo interno e casca aumentaram com o uso de minerais orgânicos, assim como houve melhora nos parâmetros de qualidade da casca. A suplementação de microminerais de fonte orgânica a dieta das poedeiras não comprometeu a qualidade interna dos ovos. A total substituição da fonte inorgânica por níveis de minerais orgânicos nas dietas das aves proporcionou manutenção no desempenho zootécnico e melhorias na qualidade de casca.

Effect of the Inclusion of Organic Copper, Manganese, And Zinc in The Diet of Layers on Mineral Excretion, Egg Production, and Eggshell Quality

This study aimed at evaluating the replacement of inorganic copper, manganese, and zinc sources by organic sources in the diet of laying hens during the second laying cycle in trace mineral excretion, egg production, and eggshell quality. Two hundred and fifty 100-week-old Dekalb hens were distributed according to a completely randomized design into five treatments with five replicates of ten birds each. The control treatment consisted of a basal diet with all trace minerals in the inorganic form. The other treatments consisted of a basal diet with a mixture of the minerals copper, manganese, and zinc in the organic form with concentrations of 100%, 90%, 80%, and 70% of the levels of inclusion of inorganic mineral sources in the control treatment. Trace mineral excretion was determined in five layers per treatment by the method of total excreta collection. Excreta trace mineral contents were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Egg production and eggshell quality were determined by the mass of the eggs and the egg specific gravity, respectively. For all trace minerals examined, the dietary supplementation with organic sources reduced trace mineral excretion compared with the control group, even at 70% inclusion level, without compromising egg production or eggshell quality. The replacement of the inorganic trace mineral sources by organics source effectively reduced the excretion of copper, manganese, and zinc by laying hens in the second laying cycle.(AU)
