喂食不含类胡萝卜素的饲料的金丝雀长出了无色的羽毛；随后加入各种类胡萝卜素后，仅叶黄素和玉米蛋白薄就恢复了黄色。叶黄素喂养的鸟类羽毛的着色物质表现出正常金丝雀羽毛提取物的特征；对鸡蛋脂肪和粪便脂肪的分析表明，叶黄素是唯一存在的着色物质。玉米黄质喂养的鸟类的羽毛含有玉米黄质，可能是一种分解产物。鹅、鸭和母鸡的肉含有叶黄素；鹅喙的表皮含有胡萝卜素。信鸽的红垂含有大量的玉米黄质，很少的叶黄素。以鸡鸡冠为原料制备了一种与星黄素相同的色素。饲喂不含类胡萝卜素的来角白母鸡日粮，在各组日粮中分别添加叶黄素、玉米黄质、胡萝卜素、番茄红素和紫黄质。饲喂叶黄素后，蛋黄中的叶黄素显著增加。蛋黄中含有约18%的玉米黄质，而在日粮中添加胡萝卜素时，其含量仅为0.54%。番茄红素和紫黄素对鸡蛋色素无明显影响。摘要作者：F.

Canary birds fed carotenoid-free rations developed colorless feathers; subsequent addition of various carotenoids produced a return of yellow coloring only with lutein and zeaxan-thin. The coloring matter of feathers from lutein-fed birds showed properties characteristic of extracts of normal canary feathers; analysis of egg-fat and feces-fat showed lutein to be the only coloring matter present. Feathers from zeaxanthin-fed birds contained zeaxanthin, with possibly a decomposition product. Wattles of the goose, duck and hen contain lutein; epidermis of goose-beaks contains carotene. The red wattles of the homing-pigeon contain much zeaxanthin, little lutein. A pigment identical with astacin was prepared from pheasant combs. A carotenoid-free ration was fed to white leghorn hens and subsequently lutein, zeaxanthin, carotene, lycopin and violaxanthin were added to the rations of different groups. Marked increases in the lutein of egg-yolks followed lutein feeding. About 18% of zeaxanthin fed, appeared in the egg-yolks, as compared with but 0.54% for carotene when this was added to the ration. Lycopin and violaxanthin were without appreciable effect on the egg-pigments. || ABSTRACT AUTHORS: F. J. McClure
