The effects of canthaxanthin microencapsulation on yolk color and canthaxanthin deposition in egg yolk of laying hens

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2022
Canthaxanthin is widely used as a feed additive to improve skin and yolk color in poultry. It is insoluble in water and sensitive to oxidation, so commercial canthaxanthin is often microencapsulated with wall materials to improve its solubility and stability. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of canthaxanthin microencapsulation on
