Chickens were divided into five groups (five dietary treatments differing in source and concentration of plant oil and fish oil). Feeding chickens with diets of determined composition from 22nd to 42nd day of fattening resulted in altered fatty acid profile in white meat and dark meat, and in significantly lowered n-6/n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) ratio in white meat. Increase of n-3 PUFA concentration in diets resulted in statistically significant (P = 0.001) increase of n-3 PUFA, as well as in decrease (P = 0.02) of n-6 PUFA in white and dark chicken meat in the 1 st experiment. The 2nd experiment resulted in statistically significant increase of n-3 PUFA concentration in white and dark chicken meat (P 〈 0.001), and n-6 PUFA concentration decreased only in dark chicken meat (P 〈 0.001). The increase of PUFA in both experiments was accompanied with decrease of saturated fatty acids (SFA) concentration in chicken meat. Although all experimental treatments were assessed as having more fishy odour and flavour than the control sample, statistically significant difference between samples was found only for fishy flavour in dark meat (P 〈 0.05). In the 2nd experiment, where the feeding treatment was altered seven days before chickens' slaughtering (fish oil was omitted), the intensity of fishy odour and flavour was assessed with "none" to "slightly noticeable" (P 〉 0.05). In order to produce chicken meat as functional product, it is possible to reach balance between high n-3 PUFA concentration and satisfactory sensory traits characteristics of chicken meat.展开更多
