Carophyll Yellow

What is Carophyll Yellow?

Carophyll Yellow is a highly effective colorant containing apocarotene esters. Due to the unique bioavailability of apocarotene esters in poultry and low cost, it is the best choice for coloring egg yolks and broiler chickens.
Apocarotene aldehyde and apocarotene acetyl ester (apocarotene ester) are natural colorants found in fruits, grains, and leaves. Both colorants are currently produced by Roche. Apocarotene aldehyde is mainly used for food coloring and has passed the US FDA test. Apocarotene esters are used in the production of this product because they are stable in feed and are more easily absorbed by chickens. Roche Acetolide is registered as a feed additive and food additive in many institutions.

The difference between this product and Carophyll red:

Both are colorants used in animal feed, mainly used to improve the color of animal products (such as egg yolk, skin, etc.) to make them look more vivid and attractive. They are both carotenoid pigments, but the ingredients and occasions of use are slightly different.
The main component of Carophyll red is canthaxanthin, which is widely used in feed, mainly for poultry feed, especially for coloring egg yolk, edible poultry, salmon and crustaceans. It can increase the color and brightness of animal skin, feet, ketone bodies and eggs. It is characterized by bright color, but excessive intake may be harmful to the retina.
The main component of Carophyll Yellow is carotene acetolide. Due to its low cost and high bioavailability of poultry, it is the best choice to improve the color of egg yolk and broiler skin.

The effect of both in feed

Carophyll red has a higher trans isomer ratio (77%), which helps better pigment deposition and coloring, and its uniformity index is low, which makes it better mixed in feed. In addition, it has excellent antioxidant function, can improve the toughness of egg yolk membrane, reduce the occurrence of loose yolk during storage, and extend the shelf life of eggs.
Carophyll Yellow‌ also has a high trans isomer ratio (91%), which also helps the pigment to deposit and color better, and its uniformity index is low, making it better miscible in feed. It performs well in premixes and feeds, but because carotenoids are sensitive to factors such as light, oxygen, temperature and humidity, attention should be paid to stability issues when using it. ‌

Function:

1. Stability in premixes and feeds
Carotenoids are very sensitive to factors such as light, oxygen, temperature and humidity. Therefore, in the process of feed production, it is crucial whether the product can withstand the test of strict new production processes and whether it can resist and tolerate contact with some possible destructive components in mineral multi-dimensional premixes.
In addition, the stability of the product during storage must be guaranteed. The high quality of this product enhances the ability of abu ester to resist adverse external factors and provides double protection to achieve optimal stability: using antioxidants to stabilize carotenoids and encapsulating them in gelatin in starch coating.
2. Coloring effect
It can significantly improve the color of egg yolk and chicken skin. This is because the color of egg yolk and chicken skin is mainly determined by the quality and quantity of pigments ingested and stored by chickens, and these pigments are mainly lutein or carotenoids. However, the content of naturally occurring carotenoids and lutein in animals and plants is usually low, and the quality varies greatly, which is not enough to make the egg yolk or chicken skin achieve a satisfactory color. Therefore, by adding carotene yellow to poultry feed, the deficiency of carotenoids can be effectively supplemented, thereby improving the color of egg yolk and chicken skin.
3. High bioavailability
Poultry has a high bioavailability of abu ester in this product, which means that this ingredient is more easily absorbed and utilized by poultry, thereby achieving a more effective coloring effect
4. Economic benefits
Because of its relatively low cost and the small amount of addition in feed to achieve the ideal coloring effect, it has high economic benefits in the poultry farming industry.
