“…Also, Ibrahim et al (2010) and Debski et al (2004) have reported significant reduction in cholesterol and fat percentage of muscles up on organic Cr supplementation. However, in contrast, Kim et al (1995) reported no significant effect of Cr supplementation on carcass fat. No effect of flaxseed feeding and Cr supplementation was found on pH of fresh meat, whereas, the pH of meat after 1 month of storage, in treatment T4 was significantly (P \ 0.01) higher as compared to other treatments.…”

A total of 240 broiler chicken of same hatch with uniform weight were used in a biological experiment with completely randomized design to investigate the effects of incorporating organic chromium (Cr) in flaxseed meal based diet on the fatty acid profile, oxidative stability and functional properties of broiler chicken meat. Five diets were formulated as per the recommendations of BIS (Nutrient requirements for poultry 13: 9863, Bureau of Indian Standards, New Delhi, 1992) in which flaxseed meal was used to replace 10% of soyabean in basal diet and four levels of Cr (0.0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 mg/kg diet) as Cr-picolinate were used. The results revealed that flaxseed feeding significantly increased the percentage of unsaturated fatty acids, including MUFA, PUFA, ω-3, ω-6 fatty acids and ω-3:ω-6 and PUFA:SFA ratios, whereas, significant decline was seen in saturated fatty acids and no effect of Cr was observed on the fatty acid profile of broiler chicken. Flaxseed feeding significantly reduced the cholesterol and fat percentage of meat, whereas, significant progressive reduction was observed with increasing Cr levels. The combination of 10% flaxseed with 1.0 mg Cr/kg diet increased the final pH of broiler meat. The addition of flaxseed significantly reduced water holding capacity, extract release volume and antioxidant potential of broiler meat, whereas, increasing Cr supplementation progressively increased them. Flaxseed feeding significantly increased the drip loss and lipid peroxidation of broiler meat, whereas, Cr supplementation decreased them. It was concluded that inclusion of 10% flaxseed and 1.5 mg Cr/kg diet results in desirable fatty acid profile, oxidative stability and functional properties of broiler chicken meat.

“…These results agree with Ibrahim (2004) who observed that total lipids and total tri-glycerides in groups received the Cr supplemented diet (20, 30, 40, or 50 mg Cr/kg) improved by increasing level of Cr as compared to control group. Kim et al (1995) found that serum tri-glycerides were affected by Cr supplementation. However, cholesterol, LDLC value and glucose significantly (P< 0.01) decreased as chromium levels increased in the experimental diets (Table 5) .While, HDLC value significantly (P< 0.05) increased by chromium levels increased in the experimental diets.…”

The present study aimed to the effects of chromium (Cr) supplementation with different levels on growth performance, digestibility nutrients, carcass characteristics, some blood constituents and economic efficiency of the growing Japanese quail. A total number of 450 one-day-old Japanese quail's chicks was used divided randomly into five experimental groups. Each group was distributed by 3 replicates pens containing (30 birds in each) until 6 weeks of age. The 1 st group fed the basal experimental diet without supplementation (as control), while the other groups were fed on diets supplemented with 200, 400, 800, and1200 µg chromium (Cr)/kg ration as chromium picolinate (Cr pic.), respectively. The results showed that the addition of chromium in the diets of growing Japanese quail resulted in an improvement (P<0.05) in body weight, and weight gain of group which received 1200 µg Cr/kg diet as compared to control one at the first three and six weeks of age. Moreover, at the same level addition of chromium in quail diets significantly (P≤0.05) improved the feed conversion, protein efficiency ratio and efficiency of energy utilization when compared with those fed unsupplemental diet, during the experimental periods (0-3 and 0-6 weeks of age). However, the addition up to 800 µg /kg of Cr in the diets improved significantly (P<0.05) the digestibility of organic matter and nitrogen free extract, while crude protein, crude fibre and ether extract digestibility were insignificantly affected. The results, also demonstrated that the abdominal fat decreased as the levels of chromium increased while, carcass percentage was increased. Serum total cholesterol, glucose were significantly (P<0.05) decreased by Cr supplementation. On the other hand total lipid, total tri-glycerides and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL %) showed the inverse trend. The highest value of economic efficiency (EE) was obtained for quails fed on diets supplemented by Cr up to 800 µg /kg. The results from this study demonstrate that a supplementation up to 800 µg /kg of Cr in the ration improved the growth performance, digestibility, carcass characteristics and blood constituents of the growing Japanese quail.

“…Kim et al . [52] also reported increased HDL cholesterol, decreased LDL cholesterol, and higher ratios of HDL cholesterol in Cr Pic supplemented broilers. An increase of HDL cholesterol [53] and a decrease in total cholesterol and triglycerides [54] have been observed in humans after Cr supplementation.…”

Poultry is reared in open side houses in most of the tropical countries, which results in huge temperature variation in shed causing stress resulting in increased demand of antioxidant supplementation. Since cooling of poultry houses or environment control is very expensive, thus methods focused on nutritional modifications appears to be the much logical approach. Stress increases mineral and vitamin mobilization from tissues and their excretion. Effect of some minerals and vitamin supplements such as chromium (Cr) and ascorbic acid to elevate the negative effects of environmental stress is well documented. Cr functions as an antioxidant and its deficiency are said to disrupt carbohydrate and protein metabolism. Cr has been utilized for weight gain, to improve feed conversion ratio, increase relative organ weight, muscle development, decrease cholesterol, increase high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and improve nutrient digestion. Therefore, the present review discusses the beneficial aspects of Cr with its effect in different doses and antioxidant combinations to explore and promote its optimum utilization in poultry nutrition and production.
