Carotenoids for poultry diet ✓Carotenoids are natural compounds present in animals and plants ✓Carotenoids were first discovered in carrots, from which in 1831 a compound that was to be named ‘beta-carotene’ was isolated. Since then, we have identified in the carotenoids family more than 600 molecules. The differences in carotenoid profiles in the various tissues are determined by the processes of absorption and transportation, and by the metabolic capacity to modify dietary carotenoids ✓ It is well known that birds are not able to synthesise carotenoids, and thus these essential compounds must come from their diet. ✓Carotenoids are mainly found in the egg yolk, the skin and fat, the liver,shank, and the feathers.

Carotenoids for poultry diet ✓They are essential not only for pigmentation, but also for immunomodulation as antioxidants, evidenced by the high disappearance rate of carotenoids from the blood stream during immune stress periods, and reduced pigmentation throughout the body. ✓Colour is one of the most important factors affecting consumer choices through sensory evaluation of foods. In most countries, golden yolks are preferred because good colour has been traditionally associated with high health. Also, eggs used in recipes can influence the colour of pasta, bakery products and sauces. In addition, although consumer preference for broiler skin colour varies according to culture and region, here also, good health is generally associated with golden skin colour.
