Xanthophyll Bioavailability in Dehydrated Turf Grass
Poultry Science, 1981 In a 16-day experiment involving 270 32-week-old laying hens, dehydrated turf grass (DTG) and corn gluten meal (CGM) were compared as xanthophyll sources for egg yolk pigmentation. Experimental diets were formulated to contain, 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mg total xanthophyll/kg diet, provided as either DTG or CGM.
