This study was carried out to determine the influence of canola oil and vitamin C included into ration on performance, egg quality and TBARS value of egg yolk in layers. A total of 72 Lohmann white laying hens, 40 wks of age, reared at the Research and Application Farm of Agricultural Faculty of Atatürk University, were randomly allocated to four dietary treatments. Each treatment group (n= 18) was replicated six times as subgroups, comprising of 3 birds each. Experimental groups were composed by adding 0% canola oil and vitamin C (I: control), 4% canola oil (II), 200 mg vitamin C/kg (III) and 4% canola oil+200 mg vitamin C /kg (IV) to basal rations. Then, the hens were fed with these diets for 12 weeks. Diets and water were submitted as ad libitum. At the end of the trial, it was observed that vitamin C (III) increased egg production (P<0.05) and improved feed efficiency (P<0.01); canola oil (II) increased egg weight (P<0.01); and the combination of vitamin C and canola oil (IV) significantly decreased the daily feed consumption. Also the cracked egg ratios of treatment groups (II, III and IV) were lower than that of control group (P<0.01). There is no difference in egg quality parameters such as egg weight, shell stiffness (kg/cm2), shape index (%), shell thickness (mm), albumen index (%) and ve Haugh value amongst groups except for yolk color and yolk index. Vitamin C significantly increased yolk color (P<0.01). However, yolk index was affected (P<0.05) by canola oil (II) and combined (IV) diets. On the other hand, vitamin C added ration (III) decreased TBARS value for 21 days storage, and for 42 days storage as compered with canola oil (II) added group. As a result, it was determined that canola oil and vitamin C included rations had positive effects on some performance and egg quality parameters. Inclusion of vitamin C to ration decreased lipid oxidation and prolonged the shelf life of egg, in case of canola oil having unsaturated fatty acid composition consumed by layers
Bu çalışma Atatürk Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi Araştırma ve Uygulama Çiftliği’nde yumurta tavuğu rasyonlarına kanola
yağı ve vitamin C ilavesinin performans, yumurta kalitesi ve yumurta sarısı TBARS değerleri üzerine etkilerini belirlemek
amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Araştırmada, 40 haftalık yaşta toplam 72 adet Lohmann ırkı beyaz yumurtacı tavuk, her grupta 18 adet
olacak şekilde biri kontrol, üçü deneme grubu olmak üzere toplam 4 gruba şansa bağlı olarak dağıtılmıştır. Gruplar, her birinde 3
hayvanın bulunduğu 6 alt gruptan oluşturulmuştur. Kontrol grubu (I) bazal yemle, diğer gruplar ise bazal yeme %4 düzeyinde
kanola yağı (II), 200 mg\kg vitamin C (III) ve %4 kanola yağı+200 mg\kg vitamin C (IV) ilave edilen rasyonlarla 12 hafta boyunca
beslenmişlerdir. Deneme süresince yem ve su ad-libitum olarak verilmiştir. Rasyona vitamin C (III) ilavesinin yumurta verimini
