The influence of baical skullcap root (Scutellaria baicalensis radix) in the diet of broiler chickens on the chemical composition of the muscles, selected performance traits of the animals and the sensory characteristics of the meat

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the baical skullcap root (<I>Scutellaria baicalensis radix</I>) on the performance, chemical composition of the muscles and sensory characteristics of the meat of broiler chickens. 120 one-day old Hubbard Hi-Y broiler hybrids were assigned to four groups of 30 each and fed either a basal diet (control) or a basal diet supplemented with 0.5%, 1.0% or 1.5% ground root of skullcap. The body weight, weight gain, feed consumption and feed : gain ratio … Show more

“…Furthermore, probiotic supplementation significantly aff ected the legs' muscles crude fat percentage in the treatment groups (Table III). The positive eff ect of feeding probiotic on the legs muscles crude protein percentage is in agreement with the fi ndings of Kroliczewska et al, 2008 of probiotics fed at the fi rst period con tinued into the second period, in addition to the best quality of the Kashik crude protein and high levels of some essential amino acids (arginine and lysine). The lower crude fat percentage of the leg muscles of broilers was observed in group T1 and the highest per centa ge was in group T3 at day 40 (Table III) in real dry mather (Table V).…”

“…Hence modifying the cell pH, leakage of some cellular components, such as the ATP that is the main energy-storing molecule, and the metabolic processes in the pathogen cells ultimately causes cell death (Sivakumar and Bautista-Baños 2014). In addition to the antioxidant and antimicrobial activity, they could have some positive effects on the sensory and physicochemical properties of seafood (Kroliczewska et al 2008).…”

“…Castellini et al 9 and Husak et al 28 found that the lipid content of chicken meat from organic production systems was lower than that from intensive systems. The cholesterol content in broiler meat is one of the most important quality indices and its level in meat can be modified by feed ingredients 33. In the current study, the breast muscle of pasture‐reared birds contained a lower level of cholesterol than the CB birds, which may also be related to the difference in feed composition.…”
