The Effect of Diet on the Pantothenic Acid Content of Eggs1

Esmond E. Snell, Esther Aline, J. Russell Couch and Paul B. Pearson

Department of Chemistry, University of Texas, Austin, and the Agricultural Experiment Station, Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, College Station

Eggs from hens maintained since hatching on a diet low in pantothenic acid showed a markedly lowered pantothenic acid content. This increased rapidly when the diet was supplemented with synthetic pantothenic acid. From quantitative data secured, it is concluded that within the limits tested the pantothenic acid content of the egg is directly proportional to that of the diet.
