Abstract:
      Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is effective in promoting brain development, improving vision and preventing cardiovascular system diseases, but its production in the human body does not meet the demand and needs to be obtained from food. The development of DHA fortified eggs can provide an effective way for people to obtain sufficient, cheap and high-quality DHA. To strengthen the research and promote further development, the advantages of DHA fortified eggs and the regulation mechanism of feed fatty acids to DHA were analyzed from the perspective of physiological function of DHA. In addition, the lipid composition of DHA fortified eggs, sources of DHA in feed, and the stability of DHA in eggs were described. DHA-enriched diets can produce DHA-enriched eggs, and the DHA in the yolk has high stability. DHA fortified eggs provide convenience for consumption, storage and saving costs, so DHA fortified eggs have a wide range of development prospects.
