Dietary canthaxanthin improves egg production rate through regulating hepatic lipid metabolism and redox status in indigenous chickens

Oxidative stress during egg production disrupts hepatic lipid metabolism and impairs laying performance in hens. This study investigated the effects of dietary canthaxanthin (CX) supplementation (0, 4, 6, 8, 10 mg/kg) on hepatic histomorphology, lipid metabolism, antioxidant capacity, and egg produc...
