Breast and Thigh Meat Chemical Composition and Fatty Acid Profile in Broilers Fed Diet with Dietary Fat Sources

Experiment was conducted to evaluate effects of different fat sources on breast and thigh meat chemical composition and fatty acid profile in broilers.
Dietary Fat Sources

Treatments were 1) DF1: basal diet + soybean oil; 2) DF2: basal diet + chicken fat; 3) DF2: basal diet + tallow; 4) DF3: basal diet + tallow and lard, and 5) DF5: basal diet + lard.

Addition of different fat sources had no significant impact on relative organ weight (P>0.05). Breast meat crude fat content was suppressed in DF1 and DF5 relative to DF4 (P<0.05).
