Nutritional Properties and Oxidative Indices of Broiler Breast Meat Affected by Wooden Breast Abnormality [PDF]

Animals, 2020
Wooden breast (WB) abnormality adversely impacts the quality of chicken meat and has been linked with oxidative stress. In this study, breast samples were taken from carcasses of 7-week-old Ross 308 broilers 20-min and 24-h postmortem. Five WB and seven non-WB control samples were assigned based on palpatory hardness (non-WB = no unusual ...
