Abstract
This research was conducted to study the effect of adding different levels of Lycopene powder to the ration on
some lipid profile traits of laying hens ISA-Brown. Used in this experiment 345 layer hens ISA Brown and were
23 week old were randomly allotted in 5 groups , 3 replicates ( 23 hens per replicate) For the period from
7/1/2013 to 23/6/2013 . Experiment included five treatments and by the following :First treatment : a negative
control group without of any addition , treatment second group control positive was added 200 mg / kg feed
(vitamin E) to the ration , and treatments, third, fourth and fifth represents add lycopene powder into the ration
at rates 100, 150 and 200 mg / kg feed respectively . Included experiment estimate some lipid profile traits
(cholesterol , cholesterol egg yolk , triglycerides , high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein
(LDL) The results of the experiment get decline of improvement (p <0.05) to the level of cholesterol, cholesterol
egg yolk , triglycerides and low density lipoprotein (LDL) when compared with first treatment (control) , and
increased to the level of high density lipoprotein (HDL) in the blood serum laying hens for treatments lycopene
powder and vitamin E treatment during the periods experiment .
