Abstract
As a complete nutrient product, the egg of Alabio duck contains high cholesterol,
therefore it needs some attention. This research was conducted to reduce this
cholesterol level and at the same time to improve its deposit of omega -3 and omega6 in the egg, by providing fiber ration containing fish oil, corn oil, and zinc (Zn).
The experimental design being used was factorial of 2x5x2 with 100 ducks. The
first factor was fiber (F) and the second one was oil and Zn (O). Results showed
that the treatments were effective enough in reducing cholesterol and improving the
omega -3 and omega- 6 of the egg. The best product was shown by treatment of
F1O4 containing 6 % fiber (F1) with 2% fish oil + 4% corn oil + Zinc (O4), either
in single or interaction, in decreasing cholesterol and LDL cholesterol at the same
time improving HDL cholesterol in plasma, omega -3 (linolenate), and omega -6 (
linoleate)

Introducton
The egg of Alabo ((Anas plathyryncho, Borneo) duck has been a bg choce
of consumers as t has hgh nutrent contents, such as 13.1% proten, 14.5% fat,
0.5 % carbohydrate, 1 % ash, and 19.9 g/100 g calory (Byatmoko
Byatmoko (2007a).. Ths
duck egg contrbutes as much as 54.14% out ot total egg producton wth 67.32 %
productvty n South Kalmantan (Byatmoko, 2007b). However, snce egg contans
hgh cholesterol, t becomes a health concern (Fronng et al., 1990). Cholesterol
s part of egg yolk (5.2%), 65.5 % trglycerde, and 28.3 % phospholpde (Srat,
1986). Amrullah (2004) reported that cholesterol n an egg ranged from 198 to 208
mg/egg, even rched 270 mg/egg (Cotterl et. al.1977).

One of the efforts of reducng cholesterol s thru gastrointestinal system, by

bndng pancreatc ble mechansm. Supplementaton of fsh ol and plant ol could
lessen egg cholesterol as a result of hpolpdmc effect, and mprove omega-3 and6 (Supryatna, 1999). Raton rch of omega-3 comes from fsh ol, whle, omega6 rom corn ol. Taneja et al.,(1995) descrbed that addton of fsh ol and corn
ol wthout buffer supplementaton could gve negatve mpact on other nutrent
absorpton. Znc as a buffer, has several roles, such as n cellular actvty, synthess
and metabolsm of proten (Lloyd, 1978). The absence of buffer would cause lost of
appette leadng to anorexa, slow growth and producton, as well as msabsorbson
of nutrent, ncludng lpd.
The objectve of ths research was to decrease cholesterol and mprove omega3 and omega-6 n Alabo duck egg thru the ncluson of fber raton contanng fsh
ol, corn ol, and znc.

Materals and Methods
Ths research was carred out for three months utlsng 100 Alabo ducks.
Expermental desgn beng used was randomsed block n factoral of 2 x 5 and 2
replcaton wth fve ducks for each replcaton. Dets were formulated as so calory-proten based on producton stage, contanng 18% CP (crude proten) and EM
(energy metabolc) of 2750 kcal/kg. Factors mplemented were:
Frst Factor, levels of fber (F), were F1= 6% and F2=
2= 8%.
Second Factor, levels of ol (O), were
O1 = 6% fsh ol + Zn
O2 = 4% fsh ol + 2 % corn ol + Zn

O3 = 3% fsh ol + 3 % corn ol + Zn
O4 = 2% fsh ol + 4 % corn ol + Zn
O5 = 6% corn ol + Zn
Varables evaluated were cholesterol, HDL-plasma cholesterol, LDL-plasma
cholesterol, omega-3, and omega-6. Data were analysed as Anova, f there s found
a sgnfcant dfference, followed by DMRT.

Results and Dscusson
Cholesterol contents (Table 1) of the egg were not affected (p>0.05) by nteracton of fber and ol levels. However, fber level or ol det treatment sgnfcantly
