This study was designed to determine the amount of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) incorporated into egg lipids after dietary CLA supplementation. Single Comb White Leghorn laying hens (n = 40; 28 wk old) were randomly assigned to four treatments of varying CLA levels (0, 0.01, 0.5 and 1 g CLA/kg diet). Eggs were collected daily for 36 d. Feed consumption and body weight were monitored. CLA content of egg yolk lipid was analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. Birds fed 0.5 and 1.0 g CLA/kg feed had significantly more CLA in the egg yolk lipid vs. control and 0.01 g CLA/kg diet groups after 7 d (P < 0.0004). Incorporation of CLA into egg lipid was highest on d 24 and 36. CLA enrichment in egg lipid in the 1.0 g CLA/kg diet group was similar to that in ruminant animal food products, approximately 3 mg CLA/g fat.
