dc.description.abstract | The potential negative impact caused by synthetic feed additives residues has increased consumers' concern on their use in poultry feed. Hibiscus sabdariffa is a reported potential natural source of nutraceuticals. The effects of supplementing a standard quail finisher diet (SQFD) with H. sabdariffa calyces meal on meat quality of male broiler Japanese quail were investigated. Twenty-nine (29), 35-day old quail, individually housed, were, in a completely randomised design, allocated to three H. sabdariffa calyces meal supplemental levels for 28 days as follows: diet 1 -SQFD, diet 2 - SQFD + 5% H. sabdariffa calyces meal (w/w) and diet 3 SQFD + 10% H. sabdariffa calyces meal (w/w). Following slaughter, carcass mass, dressing percent and the physico-chemical properties of the meat were determined. Carcass mass, dressing percent of the quail, the colour and tensile strength of the quail were not affected (P > 0.05) by dietary H. sabdariffa calyces meal. Dietary H. sabdariffa calyces meal significantly increased the pH decline and water holding capacity of the quail’s breast meat (P < 0.05). The crude protein content of thigh meat from quail fed diet 3 was significantly higher (P = 0.003) compared to quail fed diets 1 and 2. At 10% inclusion dietary H. sabdariffa calyces meal significantly reduced (P < 0.05) the lipid content of the quail breast and thigh meat. Dietary H. sabdariffa calyces meal reduced the lipid content of quail meat; therefore, H. sabdariffa calyces meal could be exploited to produce leaner but more protein-dense quail meat. | en_US |
