Poultry meat is a valuable source of nutrients and the enrichment with health-promoting substances such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) an important factor for consumers' choice. Camelina meal (Camelina sativa) animal feedstuff used to achieve this goal, but administration n-3 PUFA-enriched diets in broiler nutrition can accelerate oxidative processes leading decreased quality final product. The aim study was investigate effect organic Cr chromium picolinate (CrPic) on quality,...

Abstract Current nutritional strategies of livestock industry are focused on evaluating the effects terrestrial sources rich in natural bioactive compounds that can be used farm animal feed and subsequent implications quality resulting products. In this context, present study aimed to characterize from a point view some plants as phyto-additives poultry nutrition: oregano, mint, basil, sage, fenugreek, thyme, turmeric, cumin rosemary. The results evaluation showed varied proximate analysis....

Abstract A feeding trial was performed on 60, Cobb 500 broiler chicks (14-28 days) assigned to 2 groups (C, E) housed in an experimental hall with 32˚C air temperature, 36% humidity and 23 h light regimen.
