Influence of dietary fat source and copper supplementation on broiler performance, fatty acid profile of meat and depot fat, and on cholesterol content in meat

Abstract: 1. Three hundred and twenty d-old chickens were fed on a wheat/maize-soyabean meal diet supplemented with (i) 50 g/kg lard, (ii) 25 g/kg lard and 25 g/kg rapeseed oil, (iii) 50 g/kg rapeseed oil, and (iv) 50 g/kg rapeseed oil and 200 mg copper per kg as copper sulphate pentahydrate. 2. Final weights at 39 d of age in chickens receiving rapeseed oil were lower by 9% than in those fed on the diet containing only lard (P<0.05). The fatty acids profiles of lipids extracted from the tissues of 10 chickens per group… Show more

“…Comparable results were obtained by Van Nevel et al (2000) and Leikus et al (2004). The data is in accordance with the results obtained by Skrivan et al (2000) in broiler chickens and gave evidence that the lipid content of SFA and MUFA depend rather on the de novo synthesis than on dietary lipid intake. Lupine inclusion in the diets caused a significant increase of linolenic acid levels in groups E2 and E3.…”

“…In 11-28 and 29-42 day of age, protein intake of chicks fed with 20 g kg −1 beef tallow was lower than other groups. Skrivan et al (2000) observed that substitution of animal fat with vegetable oil decreased the muscles cholesterol content of broiler chicks. Cholesterol is absent in vegetable oils.…”

“…The relatively low dietary copper content administered to group 3 in experiment 1, 35 mg/kg, reduced (P < 0.01) EPA and DPA (Table 3). On the contrary, 200 mg Cu/kg and 50 mg vitamin E/kg feed with 6% rapeseed oil did not influence EPA and DHA in breast muscle lipids nor in abdominal fat of broilers; it was related to a higher supply of MUFA by 1/2 (Skřivan et al, 2000). The increase in monounsaturated fa�y acids a�er copper supplements in experiment 1 improved the cardioprotective composition of fat because MUFA reduce LDL-cholesterol significantly (Williams et al, 1999).…”

“…Many monounsaturated fa�y acids are contained in rapeseed oil that is cheap and easily available. In comparison with lard dietary rapeseed oil administered to chickens significantly decreased SFA and increased PUFA in intramuscular and abdominal fat of chickens (Skřivan et al, 2000).…”
