“…In general, rabbit meat has a higher K concentration than the meat from other animal species [ 4 ]. Potassium is the most abundant mineral in rabbit meat [ 5 , 56 ], which is in agreement with the results of the present study. However, K concentration in meat of the present study is somewhat lower than those reported [ 5 , 56 ].…”

The aim of the study was to assess the effects of the sire genotype, sex and carcass part on the composition of the meat of rabbits, which were fattened under conditions where no synthetic drugs were used. As for carcass parts, the higher content of both total amino acids (AA) and all essential AA (EAA) monitored was found in the Longissimus thoracis et lumborum (LTL) muscle as compared to hind leg meat (p ˂ 0.001). Significant effects of the rabbit sire genotype and the genotype x sex interaction on proportions of some AA in meat were found (p ˂ 0.001). Crossbreeding of the Mecklenburger Schecke (MS) sires with a commercial dam line of HYLA rabbits resulted in a lower proportion of the total AA and all EAA monitored in meats of MS sired males as compared to MS sired females and HYLA rabbits (p ˂ 0.05). The sex-related effect on AA profile was not so noticeable in final commercial crossbreds of HYLA rabbits when compared to MS sired progeny. These findings point to a possible risk of alterations in the nutritional quality of meat proteins when using different rabbit sire genotypes than those originally intended for the specific commercial crossbreeding scheme. However, on the contrary, higher contents of magnesium (p ˂ 0.05), manganese (p ˂ 0.001) and zinc (p ˂ 0.05) were found in meats of MS sired progeny as compared to HYLA rabbits.

“…Moreover, diet supplementation has also been employed to improve rabbit meat conservation by increasing its oxidative stability ( 105 ). Indeed, rabbit meat is characterized by a high unsaturated fatty acid proportion ( 106 ), which, together with the type of husbandry, make it extremely susceptible to oxidative phenomena ( 107 , 108 ).…”

In the last decades, several nutraceutical substances have received great attention for their potential role in the prevention and treatment of different diseases as well as for their beneficial effects in promoting the health of humans and animals. Goji berries (GBs) are the fruit of Lycium barbarum and other species of Lycium, used in traditional Chinese medicine, and they have recently become very popular in the Occidental world because of their properties, such as anti-aging, antioxidant, anticancer, neuroprotective, cytoprotective, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities. These effects are essentially evaluated in clinical trials in humans; in experimental animal models, such as mice and rats; and in cell lines in in vitro studies. Only recently has scientific research evaluated the effects of GBs diet supplementation in livestock animals, including rabbits. Although studies in the zootechnical field are still limited and the investigation of the GB mechanisms of action is in an early stage, the results are encouraging. This review includes a survey of the experimental trials that evaluated the effects of the GBs supplementation on reproductive and productive performances, immune system, metabolic homeostasis, and meat quality principally in the rabbit with also some references to other livestock animal species. Evidence supports the idea that GB supplementation could be used in rabbit breeding, although future studies should be conducted to establish the optimal dose to be administered and to assess the sustainability of the use of GBs in the diet of the rabbit.

“…Other works present the fatty acid profile, oxidative stability and lipid metabolism of rabbit meat, and their influence using natural additives [7][8][9]. Although the mineral content of rabbit meat has been investigated by several researchers [2,[10][11][12][13], in vivo studies about the influence of natural feed additives on rabbit meat minerals are scarce [14,15].…”

“…The majority of studies suggested a positive effect of dietary natural feed additives' inclusion on meat quality and that these compounds could be useful to improve nutritional properties-minerals, fatty, and amino acids of rabbit meat. While most of the works present the environmental, feeding, genetics, biological factors, and technological (pear-slaughter, transportation, processing) effects on rabbit carcass and meat quality [1], only a few of them have presented the effect of probiotics and/or bacteriocins on the rabbit meat mineral composition [14,15]; information about probiotic influence on meat of other monogastric animals, such as chickens and pigs is also rare [16,17]. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of feed administration by bacteriocin-producing and beneficial strain Enterococcus faecium AL41 (deponed to Czech Culture Collection of Microorganisms in Brno, Czech Republic, CCM8558) and its enterocin M (EntM) on the mineral content and quality of rabbit meat.…”

Improving rabbit meat quality using natural substances has become an area of research activity in rabbit nutrition due to stabilization of husbandry health and economy. The present study evaluates the effect of bacteriocin-producing, beneficial strain Enterococcus faecium AL41/CCM8558 and its enterocin M (EntM) on the quality and mineral content of rabbit meat. Seventy-two Hycole rabbits (aged 35 days) were divided into EG1 (CCM8558 strain; 1.0 × 109 CFU/mL; 500µL/animal/d), EG2 (EntM; 50µL/animal/d), and control group (CG). The additives were administrated in drinking water for 21 days. Significant increase in meat phosphorus (EG1: p < 0.05; EG2: p < 0.0001) and iron (EG1, EG2: p < 0.001) contents was noted; sodium and zinc levels were only slightly higher in experimental groups compared with control data. The calcium (EG1, EG2: p < 0.001), potassium, and copper (EG1: p < 0.01) concentrations were reduced. The treatment did not have a negative influence on physicochemical traits of rabbit meat. Based on these results, we conclude that diet supplementation with beneficial strain E. faecium CCM8558 and its EntM could enhance the quality and mineral content of rabbit meat, with the focus on its iron and phosphorus contents.
