Background Supplementing farm animals diet with functional ingredients may improve the nutritional quality of meat products. Diet composition has been also demonstrated to influence the gene expression with effect on biological processes and pathways. However, the knowledge on the effect of nutrients at the molecular level is scant. In particular, studies on the effects of antioxidants and polyphenols...
Forty ostriches were raised in five groups [control (C) or with 4% (L4) or 8% (L8) linseed, or 5% (R5) or 10% (R10) rapeseed in the diet]. Linseed supplementation (L4 and L8) improved the nutritive value of the ostrich meat by increasing (P<0.001) the α-linolenic acid content (>4.2%FAtotal) and PUFA/SFA ratio (>1.0) as compared with the control group (1.7% FAtotal and <0.94, α-linolenic...
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of linseed and rapeseed dietary supplementation on the fatty acids profiles of two ostrich fat depots: breast and subcutaneous (above the leg). The study was carried out on 40 ostriches raised in five groups – control (C) or with 4% (L4) or 8% (L8) linseed, or 5% (R5) or 10% (R10) rapeseed in the diet, from hatching to 12 months of age. Fat samples...
Conservation breed/line laying hens: Greenleg Partridge (Z-11), Yellowleg Partridge (Ż-33), Rhode Island Red (R-11), Sussex (S-66) and Leghorn (H-22 and G-99), 360 per strain were divided into 2 equal feeding treatment groups. Control groups (C) were fed a standard complete diet, experimental groups (L) were fed a diet with 10% linseed. The experiment was conducted from 37 to 52 weeks of age. Hatching...
