- Abstract
This positive effect of colocynth seed supplementation on egg production performance may be due to its antioxidant properties that alleviate the internal (egg production) and external (PQ injection) oxidative stress impacts on laying hens' productivity and physiological fitness [[30]]. By alleviating the oxidative stress imposed by PQ injection, colocynth seed supplementation significantly reduced lipid peroxidation levels as well as improved endogenous antioxidant enzyme activity and increased the total antioxidant capacity.
