In this essay, the hypothesis that biliverdin pigment plays an antioxidant role in the avian eggshell is proposed. Due to its ability to scavenge free radical species and to reduce mutation, biliverdin potentially counteracts the oxidative action of pathogens that penetrate the eggshell and/or protects the shell membrane from oxidation, thus promoting the proven antioxidant and antimicrobial capacities of the shell membrane itself. Additionally, biliverdin may be able to inhibit viral replication in the eggshell due to its ascribed antiviral properties. Moreover, previous results in other taxa leave open the question of whether biliverdin can be absorbed by the embryo from the eggshell and play a role in embryogenesis. These mechanisms of antioxidant action of eggshell biliverdin remain totally unexplored in birds and in other oviparous animals. The main assumptions and predictions of the antioxidant hypothesis are developed, and directions for future research are proposed.

蛋壳胆绿素作为抗氧化母体效应：胆绿素作为卵生动物的抗氧化资源。
本文提出了胆绿素色素在禽蛋壳中具有抗氧化作用的假说。由于其清除自由基种类和减少突变的能力，胆绿素可能会抵消穿透蛋壳的病原体的氧化作用和/或保护壳膜免受氧化，从而促进壳膜本身已证实的抗氧化和抗菌能力。此外，胆绿素可能能够抑制蛋壳中的病毒复制，因为它具有抗病毒特性。此外，其他分类群的先前结果留下了胆绿素是否可以从蛋壳中被胚胎吸收并在胚胎发生中发挥作用的问题。蛋壳胆绿素的这些抗氧化作用机制在鸟类和其他卵生动物中尚未完全探索。
