“…There are also studies that suggest a positive influence on the Japanese quails by supplementation with bee-collected pollen [118]. The dosage of 1 g/kg was reported to improve the fatty acid profile (in particular in the case of poly unsaturated fatty acids) in the Japanese quail [119]. Similar results were reported upon addition of the bee-collected pollen to rabbits' diet: the average daily intake, net profit, and the final body weight of rabbits supplemented with 350 mg/kg of the bee-collected pollen were higher compared to the control group [120].…”

“…Since the application of synthetic antioxidants is under scrutiny, owing to its potential toxicity, researchers have averted their attention to the search for natural food sources to meet the consumers' demands [121]. Several studies have proposed bee-collected pollen as a possible source of natural antioxidants by which lipid oxidation in the meat and meat products could be prohibited [119,122,123]. To evaluate the level of lipid oxidation, malon-dialdehyde (MDA) could be considered as a biomarker that depicts the oxidation level in meat.…”

Pollen is recognized as an excellent dietary supplement for human nutrition, which is why it can be found in different forms on the market (granules, capsules, tablets, pellets, and powders). But, the digestibility of pollen's nutrients is strongly affected by the presence of a pollen shell, which can decrease the bioavailability of nutrients by 50% and more. Since consumers have become more aware of the benefits of a healthy diet and the necessity to improve pollen digestibility, different pollen-based functional food products have been developed and extensive studies were done to estimate the beneficial effects of pollen-based feed on animal growth, health, and rigor mortise stage. Considering the positive effects of pollen nutrients and phytometabolites on human and animal health, the aim of this paper was to give an overview of recent achievements in the application of pollen in the formulation of functional food and animal diets. Special attention was paid to the effects of pollen's addition on the nutritional, functional, techno-functional, and sensory properties of the new formulated food products. Anti-nutritional properties of pollen were also discussed. This review points out the benefits of pollen addition to food and feed and the possible directions in the further development of functional food and feed for the wellbeing of everyone.Biomolecules 2020, 10, 84 2 of 36 improvement and for the prevention of some respiratory infections. In addition, they emphasized the fact of the longevity of some residents of Ukraine and Russia which can be linked to their regular consumption of honey enriched with pollen [2]. Since then, a significant "breakthrough" about the application of pollen as a dietary supplement has been made and the number of available research articles has drastically increased.Nowadays, pollen is often recognized as the "only perfectly complete food" [4], and "the world's best food product" [5]. The dominant presence and high content of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids highlights pollen as an ideal natural supplement that provides energy; it has good nutritional value, regulates certain biochemical functions, and strengthens the body's immune and physiological systems [4,6]. Furthermore, pollen is a rich source of different important compounds (Figure 1)-vitamins (with the prevalence of group-B vitamins) [7,8], carotenoids (such as lutein, β-cryptoxanthin, and β-caroten) [9], minerals [10][11][12], and polyphenols [13][14][15], which makes it attractive for use in the diets of children and adults suffering from certain avitaminoses and loss of appetite.

“…According to Hosseini, Vaiki Azghandi, Ahani and Nourmohammadi (2016), bee pollen can be used as a feed additive with a protective effect against the effects of heat stress in broiler chickens. In the same way, Tatlı Seven, Sur Arslan, Seven and Gökçe (2016) suggested that bee pollen supplementation had potential protective activity on lipid peroxidation and tissue fatty acid composition of quails reared under high stocking densities. The contradictory results in the literature may indicate that the effect of this additive can be more pronounced when birds are raised under stress conditions, since animals under optimal environmental conditions may not respond to growth-promoting supplements.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different levels of bee pollen in the diet of growing Japanese quails on productive performance, relative weight of the gastrointestinal organs and length of small and large intestines. A total of 650 one-day-old female Japanese quails were distributed in a completely randomized design with five treatments according to the dietary levels of bee pollen (0.0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, and 1.6%), five replicates, and 26 birds per experimental unit. At the end of the experimental period (35 days of age), the performance and relative weight of the gastrointestinal organs and length of small and large intestines were evaluated. The dietary inclusion of bee pollen did not influence (P > 0.05) performance, relative weight of proventriculus, gizzard, pancreas, liver, and large intestine, as well as the length of small and large intestines. However, a linear reduction (P < 0.05) was observed in the relative weight of small intestine as dietary bee pollen levels increased. The inclusion of bee pollen from 0.4 to 1.6% in the diet of growing Japanese quails did neither improve productive performance nor alter the biometry of digestive organs.

The aim of the study was to assess the effect of supplying propolis extract separately and propolis extract together with probiotics based on Lactobacillus fermentum on fatty acids (FA) composition of the most valuable parts of chicken carcass. Diets enriched with 400 mg propolis extract per 1 kg of feed mixture and 400 mg propolis extract per 1 kg of feed mixture plus 3.3 g probiotic preparation added to drinking water (E1 and E2 groups, respectively) were given to broiler chickens throughout a 42-d growth period. After slaughter, the FA profiles of breast and thigh samples were determined. Both supplemented diets decreased the total amount of saturated FA (SFA), mainly because of the myristic (C14:0) and stearic (C18:0) acid contents in both breast and thigh muscles. However, a significant decrease (P ≤ 0.05) in SFA was confirmed only in thigh muscle. Supplementation with propolis together with probiotics (E2) significantly increased (P ≤ 0.05) monounsaturated FA (MUFA) contents in breast muscle. Particularly oleic acid (C18:1 cis) contributed to an overall increase in MUFA. A rise (P ≤ 0.05) in polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) in breast muscle was, however, associated with the dietary supplementation of propolis extract separately (E1). A similar trend (P  0.05) for MUFA and PUFA levels was also observed in thigh muscle. Of all PUFAs detected in breast and thigh muscles, linoleic acid (C18:2 cis) was found at the highest levels. Its levels varied from 11.34 to 12.02 g*100 g -1 and from 11.05 to 11.82 g*100 g -1 in breast and thigh muscles, respectively. The highest level (P ≤ 0.05) of linoleic acid was observed in group E1. Comparing breast with thigh muscle, the breast was demonstrated to contain more SFA and PUFA, but less MUFA proportions. Although the n-3 PUFA:n-6 PUFA ratio was similar among the treatments in both breast and thigh muscles, n-6 PUFA:n-3 PUFA ratio has been showed to be a significantly lower (P ≤ 0.05) in thigh muscle, 1179Journal , 17(4), p.1179-1193 DOI: 10.5513/JCEA01/17.4.1828 with the lowest ratio found in E2 group. Differences in n-6 PUFA:n-3 PUFA ratio in breast were, however, not significant (P  0.05) between the treatments. On the whole, the present study indicated that propolis applied through the feed either separately or together with probiotics applied through the water had favourable effect on fatty acids profile in the most valuable parts of chicken carcass and could be thus added to diets for broiler chickens.of Central European Agriculture, 2016, 17(4), p.1179-1193 1179 Journal of Central European AgricultureKeywords: breast, broiler chicken, fatty acid, probiotic, propolis, thigh Abstrakt Cieľom štúdie bolo posúdiť vplyv propolisového extraktu aplikovaného samostatne alebo v kombinácii s probiotikom na báze Lactobacillus fermentum na obsah mastných kyselín v najcennejších častiach jatočného tela kurčiat.
