Impact of extruded flaxseed meal supplemented diet on growth performance, oxidative stability and quality of broiler meat and meat products

Abstract: This study was intended to explore the effect of extruded flaxseed meal supplemented diet on broiler growth performance, oxidative stability and organoleptic characteristics of broiler meat and meat products. 120 (day old) broiler chicks were randomly allotted to 12 experimental groups and fed on diets containing extruded flaxseed meal at 0, 5, 10 and 15%. The supplementation of extruded flaxseed in the diet decreases the body weight gain, feed intake and increased feed conversion ratio (FCR) values of broiler… Show more

“…These negative effects can be attributed to poor energy availability, the presence of antinutritional factors, and the low digestibility of flaxseed, along with the high viscosity of jejunal digesta and lower availability of lysine in DDGS. These observations are corroborated by a number of research reports (16,17). Various studies have shown that feeding ground flaxseed at dietary levels in excess of 7.5% in the dry matter reduced the growth rate and body weight (6), resulting in poor feed conversion efficiency (7), which could explain the drastic reduction in the PER and net protein ratio (6), mainly due to a reduction in the retention of nitrogen and amino acids caused by the presence of mucilage (7).…”

“…These effects of flaxseed and DDGS can be attributed to their ability to increase lipid unsaturation in broiler chicken meat. Even though the literature is limited, it was observed that a significant and progressive increase of both SOD and CAT activity occurs with increasing levels of flaxseed in the diet (17). The SOD converts superoxide radicals to hydrogen peroxide, which is acted upon by CAT.…”

“…The addition of 50, 100 or 150 g FSM/kg to the diet of broiler chickens reduced body weight gain (BWG) and increased feed conversion ratio (FCR) without altering feed intake at 42 days of age (Mridula et al, 2011). However, Anjum et al (2013) found that dietary level of 50, 100 or 150 g FSM/kg of broiler chickens reduced BWG, feed intake and increased FCR of chickens at 42 days of age. The objectives of this study were to further evaluate the influence of FSM levels in the finishing diet on the performance, carcass characteristics and quality of breast meat fillets of sexed broiler chickens.…”

“…Flaxseed meal could be of great interest to the poultry industry for enriching poultry products with high ALA content. The addition of FS to the diets of broiler and laying hens enriched meat and eggs with ALA, consequently improving the health status of poultry products (Ajuyah et al, 1991;Aymond and Van Elswyk, 1995;Anjum et al, 2013). A number of studies suggested that FSM can be included in the diets of broiler chickens (Mridula et al, 2011;Anjum et al, 2013).…”
