“…At the current stage, the mechanisms behind the effects of phytonutrients on antioxidant action of muscle tissues in farm animals and improvement in meat and milk quality can be classified as speculation only, we believe, and this is attributed to the fact that polyphenols have a low bioavailability. In this context, it should be noted that the status of vitamin E [ 112 , 113 , 114 ] or vitamin C and Se [ 115 ] or Zn [ 116 ] as minerals on antioxidant action of muscle tissues in farm animals and improvement in meat and milk quality have been very well documented with well-designed in vivo experiments conducted in farm animals [ 32 ]. For example, supplementation of vitamin A or C to lactating ewes from late pregnancy to mid-lactation enhanced milk quality by increasing the levels of healthy FAs and the antioxidant capacity (in terms of increased DPPH scavenging activity and reduced MDA concentration) of the milk [ 117 ].…”

The biological effects of oxidative stress and associated free radicals on farm animal performance, productivity, and product quality may be managed via dietary interventions—specifically, the provision of feeds, supplements, and forages rich in antioxidants. To optimize this approach, it is important first to understand the development of free radicals and their contributions to oxidative stress in tissue systems of farm animals or the human body. The interactions between prooxidants and antioxidants will impact redox homeostasis and, therefore, the well-being of farm animals. The impact of free radical formation on the oxidation of lipids, proteins, DNA, and biologically important macromolecules will likewise impact animal performance, meat and milk quality, nutritional value, and longevity. Dietary antioxidants, endogenous antioxidants, and metal-binding proteins contribute to the ‘antioxidant defenses’ that control free radical formation within the biological systems. Different bioactive compounds of varying antioxidant potential and bio-accessibility may be sourced from tailored feeding systems. Informed and successful provision of dietary antioxidants can help alleviate oxidative stress. However, knowledge pertaining to farm animals, their unique biological systems, and the applications of novel feeds, specialized forages, bioactive compounds, etc., must be established. This review summarized current research to direct future studies towards more effective controls for free radical formation/oxidative stress in farm animals so that productivity and quality of meat and milk can be optimized.

“…The content of fatty acids was determined by gas chromatography according to the method described by Rodriguez-Maya et al [17], where 1 µL of each sample was injected into the gas chromatograph (Perkin Elmer, Clarus 500 model) and the fatty acids were separated in a capillary column 100 m × 0.25 mm inner diameter × 0.2 µm of film thickness (SUPELCO TM-2560). The separation was obtained a temperature ramp (140 • C for 5 min with increments of 4 • C per min up to 240 • C), using nitrogen as the carrier gas.…”

The objective of this paper was to evaluate the effect of four levels (0%, 4.32%, 8.39% or 12.25%) of avocado waste (AW) included in the diets on productive performance, carcass characteristics and meat nutritional quality of fattening rabbits. For that, one hundred and twenty male rabbits (New Zealand × California; 945 ± 47 g initial body weight) were fed over 28 days, randomly distributed to one of the four treatments (T) (T1 = 0, T2 = 4.32, T3 = 8.39 and T4 = 12.25% AW as fed). The chemical and fatty acids profiles were evaluated in the Longissimus thoracis et lumborum (LTL) muscle. The rabbits fed with 8.39% of AW reported the best productive parameters (p < 0.05), the greater (p < 0.05) dissectible adipose tissue and higher polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) n-3 content (p < 0.05) than control meat. It is concluded that the inclusion of AW in the growing–finishing rabbit’s diet can modify the nutritional quality of the meat, reducing the n-6/n-3 ratio and the thrombogenic index.
