Phosphorus Partition in the Blood Serum of Laying Hens*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Much work has been done during recent years in investigating the calcium partition in the blood of laying hens. From this work an attempt has been made to determine the nature of the non-diffusible calcium. Although Laskowski (1) and Benjamin and Hess (2) investigated the partition of inorganic phosphorus in connection with the study of calcium in the serum of the laying hen, little has been done concerning the partition of total phosphorus. Since it has been shown by Hughes (3) that the total phosphorus as well as the calcium increases during the laying season, it was deemed advisable to investigate more thoroughly the partition of phosphorus in the serum of the laying hen.

Effect of dietary available phosphorus and phytase on production performance of old laying hens and tibia bone quality
Background: Old laying hens are more prone to dietary calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) deficiencies as they absorb Ca and P less efficiently than younger hens. OBJECTIVES: In a 2×2 factorial design, the influence of diets with two levels of available phosphorus (AP) and phytase enzyme on the laying performance, egg quality and tibia bone characteristics of laying hens at their late 2nd producti...

The primary aim of this study was to assay the influence of dietary Ca sources and levels on performance, egg quality indices, and selected blood variables of laying hens. A total of 192 Bovanz commercial layers were distributed to 6 dietary treatment groups with 4 replicates and 8 birds in each replicate. The experimental diets were iso-caloric and iso-nitrogenous, but they were different in t...

The present study was carried out to determine the effects of fenugreek powder (FP) and extract (FE) on performance, egg quality, blood parameters and immune responses of laying hens. One-hundred and fifty Leghorn laying hens were used in a completely randomized design with five treatments and five replicates for eight weeks. Treatments were various levels of FP and FE including zero (control; ...
