In this study, the effects of the inclusion of artichoke bracts (AB) in rabbit diets on the carcass characteristics and rabbit meat quality were studied. A total of 120 rabbits aged 38 days were used and divided into three groups that were fed with different isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets supplemented with AB at 0%, 5% and 10%. The animals wer...

... quality traits Results of pH 24 , colour measurements, calculated colour characteristics and cooking losses are summarized in Table 4. The LD muscle was not affected by AB supplementation for any of these parameters. ...
Context 2
... significant differences were found in cooking losses (Table 4) The chemical composition of the LD muscle was not sig- nificantly affected by AB supplementation; with the excep- tion of the ether extract that increases with the increasing AB inclusion level (Table 5), this can be related to the increased ether extract content of the corresponding diets. Using dif- ferent levels of artichoke leaves in rabbits' diet, Bonomi (1999) did not find significant differences in the chemical composition of the muscle. ...

Living cells interact with different forms of metal; the resulted biochemical alteration depends on the dose. Over an average dose in ionic form, metals interact with respiration processes at various levels, and it induces oxidative stress by shifting the whole oxydoreduction equilibrium. To correct the toxicity, cell develops different ways to can...
