Effects of flaxseed supplementation on omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acid ratio, lipid mediator profile, proinflammatory cytokines and stress indices in laying hens

Although polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have gained attention because of their physiological effects on inflammation and stress, their derivatives, termed lipid mediators, have been rarely examined, especially in laying hens. In this study, we aimed to investigate PUFA and lipid mediator profil...
