Utilization of guava extract as additive antioxidant in diets of Japanese quail breeders (Coturnix japonica)

Utilização de extrato de goiaba como aditivo antioxidante na ração de codornas (Coturnix japonica)

SUMMARY

The aim of this study was to evaluate the guava extract as an antioxidant additive in diets of Japanese quail breeders on the performance and egg’s quality. The experiment was conducted at University Federal of Goias. A total of 384 Japanese quail breeders were used, distributed in four treatments, with six replicates, with a total of 12 females and four males in each replicate. The treatments were performed with four levels of guava extract in the diets (0.0%, 0.3%, 0.6% and 0.9%). The guava extract contained the ellagic acid, considered the guava antioxidant active principle. The diets were isonutritive. Feed and water were offered ad libitum. The experimental period was 84 days. Egg production, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, egg mass, body weight variation and egg quality were evaluated. The results were submitted to analysis of variance and regression analysis. The adopted probability was 5%. Egg production, feed intake, feed conversion ratio and egg mass were not influenced by the use of guava extract. The yolk and albumen height, the Haugh Unit and the yolk and albumen index decreased linearly as the levels of guava extract in the diet increased. The diameter of the albumen was higher with the use of 0.48% of guava extract in the diet. The yolk color was affected by the guava extract, presenting a darker color with 0.50% of guava extract in the diet. It was concluded that the guava extract used as an antioxidant additive does not improve the performance and egg quality of Japanese quails.

RESUMO

Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito do extrato de goiaba em dietas de matrizes de codornas japonesas (Coturnix japonica) sobre o desempenho produtivo e a qualidade dos ovos férteis. O experimento foi realizado na Universidade Federal de Goiás. Foram utilizadas 384 matrizes de codornas Japonesas, distribuídas em 4 tratamentos, com 6 repetições, total de 12 fêmeas e 4 machos em cada repetição. Os tratamentos foram quatro níveis de extrato de goiaba nas rações (0,0%, 0,3%, 0,6% e 0,9%). O extrato de goiaba continha 2,13% de ácido elágico, considerado um princípio antioxidante da goiaba. As rações foram isonutritivas. O período experimental foi de 84 dias. Foi avaliada a produção de ovos, consumo de ração, conversão alimentar, massa de ovos, ganho de peso e qualidade interna e externa dos ovos. Os resultados foram submetidos à análise de variância e de regressão com 5% de probabilidade. A utilização do extrato de goiaba não influenciou a produção de ovos, o consumo de ração, a conversão alimentar e a massa de ovos. A altura de gema e albúmen, a unidade Haugh e o índice de gema e de albúmen diminuíram linearmente à medida em que os níveis de extrato de goiaba na ração aumentaram. O diâmetro do albúmen foi maior com 0,48% de extrato de goiaba na ração. A coloração da gema foi influenciada pela utilização do extrato, apresentando coloração mais escura com 0,498% de extrato de goiaba na ração. Conclui-se que o extrato de goiaba não melhora o desempenho e qualidade dos ovos de codornas japonesas.

INTRODUCTION

The quail’s production has steadily increased in Brazil. The improvement on the quality of the newborn quails might enhance the productivity and rentability of this activity. Fertile eggs in better qualities having a good membrane structure can result in better newborn quails. Due to its composition, eggs are susceptible to lipid peroxidation (Du e Ahn, 2000). Therefore, using antioxidants compounds can be an alternative to slow the lipid oxidation and improve the quality of the incubated eggs and the newborn quails.

The birds’ eggs have a high lipid concentration, which are essential to the embryo development, due to its source of energy, fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins (Ferreira et al., 2010). In the embryo development, the lipids in the egg yolk undergo additional saturation in the liver and produce long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) (Ferreira et al., 2010). PUFAs are very susceptible to oxidation and are in high concentration in the embryo’s tissues, as well as in the sperm’s membranes (Pappas et al., 2008). According to Barreiros et al. (2006), an important fact that influences the antioxidant activity of flavonoids is their interaction with biomembranes and that the lipophilicity of the flavonoid indicates the incorporation of the membrane, which is the target of most reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. For that matter, it is possible that the use of an antioxidant additive in the quail breeders’ diet might impact the ova’s quality through the cellular membrane protection and the yolk lipid content, enhancing the eggs production and quality.

The guava processing (Psidium guajava L.) produces residue that can be used in the animal’s diet, containing high concentration of vitamins and total phenolic compounds (Oliveira et al., 2011). The phenolic compounds present in the guava are antioxidants that have oxydo-reduction properties, which can play an important role in the free radical’s absorption and neutralization, chelating the oxygen or decomposing the peroxides (Degáspari, 2004). The use of guava derivatives as feed ingredients for poultry has been reported (Silva et al., 2009; Lira et al., 2009; Mahmoud et al., 2013; Camelo et al., 2015). However, the effect of using a standardized extract produced from the guava with the antioxidant purpose, has still to be enlightened. The ellagic acid is a phenolic compound with antioxidant activity (Cruz-Antonio et al., 2010). These phenolic compounds found in fruits have been studied as antioxidants additive (Seeram et al., 2005; Ahmed, 2015; Oliveira et al., 2018a). The use of the guava residue extract as antioxidant in quail’s diet might lower the costs and present positive effects, being an alternative to the synthetic antioxidants.

In this regard, it was aimed to evaluate the guava extract effect (Pisidium guajava L.) as an antioxidant additive in the diet of Japanese quail breeders (Coturnix japonica) in the production phase on the breeders performance and the fertile eggs’ quality.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

The experiment was conducted at the School of Veterinary and Animal Science of the Federal University of Goias. The Ethics Committee in the Use of Animals approved all procedures, under the protocol 052/15.

384 Japanese quail’s breeders of 133 days old were used and distributed in a completely randomized design, with four treatments and six repetitions. 12 females and four males were used per repetition, totalizing 288 females and 96 males. The treatments were composed by one diet without the guava extract and three others with increasing levels of guava extract inclusion (Treatments: 0.0%; 0.3%; 0.6%; and 0.9%). The experimental diets were isonutritives and formulated according to Rostagno et al. (2011) (Table 1). The maize starch was used as an inert ingredient to be replaced by the guava extract. The animals had free access to water and feed during the entire experiment.

The guava extract had 2.13% of ellagic acid and it was obtained in the Laboratory for Research, Development and Innovation of Bioproducts, Faculty of Pharmacy, Federal University of Goias. To obtain the guava extract, the residue from the industrial processing of the guava fruits was used (pulp waste, peel and seeds). It was provided by the Predilecta Alimentos Industry LTDA, which were stored in 20ºC in a cold storage. Subsequently, they were defrosted for 48 hours, dehydrated in a forced air circulation oven in 40ºC until the attainment of a constant mass, they were also grinded in a knife and hammer mill and the obtained powder was stored free of light and humidity. The powder resulted from the milling underwent the percolating extraction process, using ethylic alcohol as a solvent and the alcoholic scale was determined by the optimization of the extraction method by Box Behnken. The obtained extract was concentrated with the cooler, until the complete evaporation of the ethylic alcohol. The extract used in its liquid form was pulverized on the milled corn at the moment of the macro ingredients preparation to the diet production. The extract was incorporated in each feed replacing the starch.

The poultry were housed in galvanized wire cages equipped with nipple-type drinkers, trough type feeders and eggs collection fence, in a masonry poultry housing and lateral closing curtains. The maximum and minimum temperatures during the experiment were 34ºC and 22ºC, respectively. The handling of opening and closing the curtains, to a better control of the aviary temperature, were done at 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., every day. The experiment was composed by four production cycles of 21 days, meaning 84 days of experimental period.

The poultry’s mortality and eggs production were measured. In the end of each production cycle, the mean feed intake and the mean feed conversion ratio were evaluated. The body weight gain was measured in the end of the experimental period.

In the end of each production cycle, 72 eggs per treatment were evaluated regarding to the egg weight, specific gravity, the yolk and albumen height, the yolk and albumen diameter, the yolk color and weight and the yolk and albumen pH.

The yolk color was evaluated in the end of each 21 days cycle by the same evaluator using the Roche® color fan. The yolk and albumen pH were measured by a bench pH meter.

To the eggshell analysis, the eggs were washed, sun dried during 72 hours and then, weighted. Two thickness points of the eggs shell were measured in the cross-sectional area of the eggs shell, which was possible to obtain a mean in millimeters (mm). The thickness was analyzed by the digital pachymeter. The albumen weight was calculated by the subtraction: egg weight - (yolk weight + eggshell weight).

The Haugh Unit (HU), yolk index (YI) and albumen index (AI) were evaluated according to Seibel and Soares (2003):

• - HU= 100 x log (albumen height (mm) + 7.57 - 1.7 x egg weight (g)^0.37);

• - Albumen index= albumen height (mm) / albumen diameter (mm);

• - Yolk index= yolk height (mm) / yolk diameter (mm).

The results were presented as the mean of all the studied production cycles, submitted to the analysis of variance and regression analysis, at 5% probability, using the R software.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The use of guava extract in the diet as an antioxidant additive did not improve the breeders’ performance (Table 2). According to Bastos (2017), powdered cinnamon supplementation in the quails’ diet in the laying phase improves the egg production because it can provide a balance in the organism through the antioxidant activity and the modulation of the gene’s expression related to the antioxidant defense and the lipid metabolism. The guava extract had 2.13% of ellagic acid, which could have been not enough to result in lipid modulation and poultry production.

The feed intake and the body weight gain were not affected by the guava extract in the diet, possibly because the diet was isonutritive. The feed intake monitoring is an important factor to take into consideration to use an additive ingredient in the diet. The use of an additive that results in a decrease of feed intake can impair its use in a commercial scale.

The eggs intern quality was influenced by the use of guava extract in the diet (Table 3). The yolk and albumen height, the Haugh Unit and the yolk and albumen index linearly decreased as the guava extract levels in the diet increased. It was expected that the antioxidant improved the eggs biological membrane integrity, resulting in eggs with higher yolk and albumen. The guava extract ellagic acid was ineffective to improve the egg quality. Freitas et al. (2013) confirmed that the use of synthetic antioxidant or ethanolic mango extracts do not affect the breeder’s performance, but it improves the albumen quality and the lipid eggs stability. Oliveira et al. (2018) verified that the use of copaiba and sucupira oils in the breeder’s diet have a positive impact in the albumen quality and the yolk’s pH. Both oils have antioxidants properties.

Although the Haugh Unit was higher without the guava extract inclusion in the diet, all the Haugh Unit numbers were consistent with the AA norm, considered an optimal quality standard according to USDA (2000).

The yolk, albumen, eggshell and specific gravity percentage did not differ when the guava extract was used. According to Araújo et al. (2017), the eggshell quality affects the gas conductance and the eggs humidity, affecting the eggs humidity loss in the egg incubator. The specific gravity is a parameter that evaluates the eggshell quality and it did not differ with the treatments, indicating that there was no antioxidant action on the eggshell proteins in this study.

The albumen diameter increased quadratically as the guava extract levels were enhanced in the diet, reaching 0.475% of guava extractor maximum diameter. The highest albumen diameter is indicative of the egg quality loss and it is used to calculate the albumen index. Thus, the confirmed albumen index reduction resulted from the lower height and the biggest albumen index as the guava extract inclusion in the feed increased.

The yolk color was affected by adding the guava extract in the breeder’s diet, which the darkest color was with 0.498% of guava extract in the diet.

The use of guava extract in the quail diet with ellagic acid could be a viable and sustainable alternative in place of synthetic antibiotics. However, besides there was no improvement in the breeder’s performance, there was a worsening in the eggs internal quality, which could result in poorer newborn quail quality.

It was concluded that the use of guava extract as a zootechnic antioxidant in the Japanese quail breeders’ diet did not affect their performance and did not improve the egg quality.
