The impact of metal amino acid complexes on cuticle quality and Salmonella Enteritidis contamination in laying hens’ eggs
Supplementation with 40% AACM resulted in 91.7% of samples being free of yolk contamination, while LGCM supplementation at all levels completely prevented bacterial penetration into egg yolks, achieving 100% safety despite eggshell contamination.
