Impact of curcumin supplementation in monochromatic light on lipid serum profile of sexually mature female Magelang ducks
Abstract: An experiment was
conducted to study the effect of curcumin supplementation inexpose
monochromatic light on serum lipid concentrations of sexually mature female
magelang duck. One hundred and ninety two female magelang ducks were assigned
into a completely randomized design with a 4×4 factorial arrangement and each
experimental unit was repeated 3 times, each with 4 female magelang ducks. The
first factor was dose of curcumin supplementation consisted of 4 levels i.e.,
0, 9, 18, and 36 mg/duck/day. The second factor was the color of monochromatic
light consisted of 4 levels i.e., white, red, green, and blue colors. The data
were analyzed by two-way ANOVA. The result showed that serum concentrations of
triglyceride, cholesterol, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), and low density
lipoprotein (LDL) were lower (P<0.05) while high density lipoprotein (HDL)
were higher (P<0.05) in experimental ducks supplemented with a curcumin dose
of 36 mg/duck/day in variety of monochromatic light colors compared to control
experimental ducks without curcumin supplementation. The curcumin doses of 18
or 36 mg/duck/day within red, green, or blue light had the potential to modulate
lipid metabolism, as indicated by the increased serum concentration of HDL and
the decreased serum concentrations of triglyceride, cholesterol, VLDL, and LDL
of the experimental female magelang ducks.
