“…The volume of semen volume was increased in from 9 to 12 months of treatment as compared to control animals. Similarly, increase in semen volume was observed in goats [ 9 ], rams [ 5 ] and quails [ 4 ], Rooke et al, [ 26 ]. In contrary to present study Gliozzi et al, [ 14 ], Adeel et al, [ 1 ], Gholami et al, [ 13 ] reported non-significant increase in semen volume in chicken, rabbit, buffalo bulls and Holstein bulls respectively.…”

BackgroundThe current study was designed to investigate the effect of supplementation of Flaxseed (Linumusitatisimum) oil on libido and semen quality of Nilli-Ravi buffalo bulls.MethodsIn this study, 12 adult healthy bulls kept at the Semen Production Unit, Qadirabad district Sahiwal, were used. These bulls were divided into three equal groups, A, B and C. Group A was kept as control, while in groups B and C supplementation of feed was provided by using flaxseed oil @125 ml/day and 250 ml/day,respectively for 12 weeks. Two ejaculates per animal were collected at 0 day then 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th week of treatment. In this way a total 216 samples were taken, and each semen sample was evaluated for color, volume, mass activity, percent motility, sperm cell concentration per ml, percentage of live sperm, and plasma membrane integrity. Libido of bulls was also evaluated before every collection.ResultsAnalysis of data revealed that these parameters were significantly (P < 0.01) increased in flax oil treated animals as compared to control.ConclusionIt was concluded from the present study that flax seed oil has beneficial effects on reproductive health of buffalo bull.

“…The differences between fatty acids composition might have resulted from diet. In this regard, there are many studies reported by some researchers [4,16,18,24,43]. On the other hand, fat content and composition of diets affect human health such as risk of cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases [17].…”

“…Fatty acids play significant metabolic, structural, and functional roles in physiology [17]. It is well known that there are different constitutions in point of fatty acids structure; fatty acids include carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen and are categorized as saturated fatty acids (SFAs), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), or polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) [18]. SFAs and trans fatty acids (TFAs) give rise to negative effects on human health such as cardiovascular disease, endothelial dysfunction, coronary heart disease, the resistance to insulin, increased levels of blood lipids, inflammation, and the increase in LDL/HDL ratio, [19][20][21][22] while PUFAs have a positive effect on human health [23].…”

The objective of the present study was to compare the proximate analysis, fatty acids composition, omega fatty acids, trans fatty acids (TFAs), and ratio of the total poly unsaturated fatty acid (ΣPUFA) and total saturated fatty acid (ΣSFA) of female and male quail meats. Significant differences were not observed between pH, crude fat, moisture, and ash content of female and male quail meats (p>0.05). The male quail meat had higher fat and ash contents and lower moisture content than those of the female quail meat. The pHs of male and female quail meat were found to be 6.22 and 6.21, respectively. The results of the fatty acid composition analysis showed that C18:1 (42.14–41.23%), C16:0 (24.31–25.76%), C18:2 (13.82–13.42%), and C18:0 (7.49–7.32%) were found as the major fatty acids in the female and male quail meats. Total TFAs,ΣSFA, monounsaturated fatty acids (ΣMUFA), andΣPUFA content of the female and male quail meats were found to be 2.79–2.82%, 33.22–34.65%, 49.70–48.72%, and 14.29–13.81%, respectively.

“…The supplementation of oil to diets leads to increase body weight gain in broilers (Newman et al, 1998). On the other hand, Al Daraji et al, (2010) observed that dietary fish oil at the inclusion level of 3% in quail diets recorded the best FCR followed by linseed oil while no significant effect on LBW and FI compared with the same level of sunflower oil and cotton seed oil. Whereas, there were no effects of dietary PUFAs enrichment on LBW and FI in broiler chicks (Moroufyan et al, 2012).…”

his study was conducted to evaluate the effect of use various traditional oil sources (soybean oil (SO) or palm oil (PO)) and untraditional fat sources (short-chain fatty acids (FA) or distillated fatty acids (DFA)) in Japanese quail diets compared with control diets (without any fats source) on productive performance, slaughter and carcass traits, breast meat quality and blood parameters. Thus, each experiment investigated four fats by substituting them into a basal diet at the expense of the energy-yielding ingredients. At 7-day of age, 300 unsexed, Japanese quails were divided into 5 groups (60 quails each). Each group contained 3 replicates of 20 quails each. Five dietary treatments were distributed according to diets fed to quails consecutively during starter, grower and finisher phases. The experimental groups were: Basal diet without any fats (Control), Basal diet containing soybean oil as a fat sources (T1), palm oil (T2), fatty acids (T3) and distillated fatty acids (T4). The obtained result in this study revealed that 1 .There were no significant differences among all groups in live body weight (LBW) and body weight gain (BWG), feed consumption (FC) and Feed conversion ratio (FCR) values during starter, grower, finisher or overall periods, Except starter FC of (T2) group. 2 .Values of Energy conversion ratio (ECR), Protein conversion ratio (PCR), performance index (PI) and production efficiency factor (PEF) showed that all experimental groups are significantly similar to the control group. quails fed (T1) diet had better protein conversion ratio (PCR) but (T2) was the lowest values. 3 .Quails fed (T4) which fed Distillated fatty acids obtained the highest values on percentage of carcass, liver, heart, giblets and weight of edible parts. Otherwise, No significant differences among all experimental groups in weight of bursa and spleen. 4. Quails fed (T4) diet had the highest percentages of breast meat moisture and saturated fatty acid values. While quails fed control diets, had the highest water holding capacity (WHC) and unsaturated fatty acid values. 5 .No significant differences among all experimental groups in plasma total protein, albumin, globulin, total cholesterol, HDL, calcium or phosphorus, while plasma AST, ALT or LDL, was superior with quails fed (T4) diets. It could be recommended from this study to supplement 1,2 and 3% distillated fatty acids to quail diets in age up to 42 days for improve carcass characteristics and fatty acid profile of breast meat .
