Abstract

The importance of trace minerals supplementation of animal feeds is irrefutable, with various forms of both organic and inorganic products commercially available. With advances in research techniques, and data obtained from both in-vitro and in-vivo studies in recent years, differences between inorganic and organic trace minerals have become more apparent. This review manganese (Mn) impact from environmental, and nutritional perspectives are discussed, along with the biological availability of various Mn forms in laying hens. Mn is a required element in nutrition, which mainly acts in enzyme systems effective in the metabolism of lipids and carbohydrates. In laying hens, Mn plays an important role in growth, bone growth, prevention of ptosis, optimal quality of eggshell and maintaining performance. Mn deficiency reduces the production and quality of egg shells. The National Research Council (NRC) (1994) recommends 20 and 60 mg/kg Mn of feed for laying hens and broilers, respectively. But in practical poultry diets, the need for Mn is considered higher than these values. Traditionally, Mn in the form of sulfate was used as a standard source in poultry feed, but recently, organic sources of Mn are also used. It seems that the requirement of dietary Mn in laying hens is 90 mg/kg of feed, and the bioavailability of Mn-sulfate is higher than other mineral sources of Mn, but less than its organic sources. More studies should be done to determine the optimal requirement of Mn in different forms for laying hens.
