Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention patent relates to the technical field of feed additives, specifically, to a feed additive for reducing the abdominal fat rate of broiler chickens and improving meat quality and its application. Background Art
[0002] The abdominal fat rate of broilers is an important factor affecting the quality of their meat. Studies have shown that fat deposited in the muscles is an important factor affecting the quality and flavor of meat. The abdominal fat rate and meat quality of broilers are affected by many factors such as genetics, nutrition, and feeding system. Reasonable feed ratios can improve the abdominal fat rate and meat quality of broilers, thereby improving the market competitiveness of broilers.
[0003] At present, in the prior art, there are usually the following strategies for reducing the abdominal fat rate of broiler chickens and improving their meat quality:
[0004] 1. Feed nutrition regulation:
[0005] Adjustment of dietary composition: Studies have shown that adjusting the energy and protein ratio in the diet can affect the abdominal fat rate of broilers. For example, reducing the total fat content in the diet, increasing the proportion of grains and grain products, and prohibiting animal meat and bone meal and growth hormones can reduce the abdominal fat rate.
[0006] 2. Protein feed selection: Different protein feeds have an impact on chicken flavor and body fat accumulation. For example, feather meal can reduce abdominal fat and carcass fat.
[0007] 3. Minerals and trace elements: Adding manganese to the diet can effectively reduce abdominal fat deposition in broilers, and the effect of organic manganese is better than that of inorganic manganese. In addition, the addition of chromium can also significantly reduce the abdominal fat rate of broilers.
[0008] 4. Feed additives:
[0009] Yucca extract: The active ingredients in yucca extract can promote animal growth, reduce harmful gases, regulate immune function, improve meat quality, and reduce abdominal fat rate.
[0010] Clostridium butyricum and xylooligosaccharides: Adding Clostridium butyricum and xylooligosaccharides to the diet can significantly reduce the abdominal fat rate of broilers and improve meat quality.
[0011] 5. Vitamin additives:
[0012] Vitamin E: Adding vitamin E to the diet can reduce muscle drip loss, increase muscle a* value, reduce the malondialdehyde content (MDA) in muscle storage, inhibit muscle lipid oxidation, extend the shelf life of the carcass, and improve the fatty acid composition.
[0013] 6. Genetic selection:
[0014] Low-fat and food-saving broiler chicken strain: Breeding low-fat and food-saving broiler chicken strain is one of the important goals of global broiler breeding. By selecting major effect genes and markers that affect abdominal fat traits, the abdominal fat content of broilers can be reduced.
[0015] 7. Whole genome selection technology:
[0016] Genomic breeding value: The use of whole genome selection technology can be used for early selection, shorten the generation interval, improve the genetic progress of broilers, and thus reduce the abdominal fat rate.
[0017] In the prior art, the comprehensive application of the above strategies can effectively reduce the abdominal fat rate of broilers, thereby improving the meat quality.
[0018] However, the feed cost of reducing abdominal fat rate by using feed additives in the prior art is relatively high. In addition, through research, it is found that albino tea products are all picked in spring, and there is no efficient recovery and utilization of albino tea resources in summer and autumn at home and abroad. Therefore, based on the above-mentioned prior art problems, this application designs and provides a feed additive for reducing abdominal fat rate of broilers and improving meat quality and its application.

[0060] 1.3 Reagents and Instruments
[0061] Triglyceride (TG) kits were purchased from Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute; high-density meat component analyzer was used to detect the percentage of different meat chemical components (water, protein, fat, collagen).
[0062] 1.4 Animal feed
[0063] The basic feed for the brooding period was purchased from Jiangsu Tiancheng Technology Group Nantong Feed Co., Ltd.; the basic feed for the growing period was purchased from a chicken farm in Changzhou, Jiangsu.
[0064] 2. Methods
[0065] 2.1. Preparation of probiotic tea matrix feed
[0066] 1% black tea and 1% green tea were added to each kg of the basic diet, 1% probiotic tea was added to each kg of the basic diet in the low-dose probiotic tea group, 2% probiotic tea was added to each kg of the basic diet in the medium-dose probiotic tea group, and 4% probiotic tea was added to each kg of the basic diet in the high-dose probiotic tea group. The basic diet was prepared according to the nutritional requirements of NRC (1994) and the animals were fed conventionally.
[0067] 2.2 Animal Grouping
[0068] In the first 1-6 weeks, all Liyang chickens were not grouped, and were fed with basic feed and free access to water. Subsequently, 120 Liyang chickens were randomly divided into groups, 20 in each group, including the control group (Control), dark tea group (Dark tea), green tea group (Greentea), low-dose probiotic tea group (I), medium-dose probiotic tea group (II) and high-dose probiotic tea group (III), and the formal experiment began. After 24 weeks of feeding, the feed intake, body weight and slaughter index data were counted, and broiler blood, liver, abdominal fat, breast muscle and leg muscle samples were collected for subsequent experimental analysis.
[0069] 2.3 Data Processing
[0070] SPSS25.0 software and GraphPad Prism9.3 software were used for data processing. "*", "**", "***" indicate that all treatment groups were compared with the control group, indicating P < 0.05, P < 0.01, P < 0.001, respectively, with significant differences; "#", "##", "###" indicate that all probiotic tea groups I, II, and III were compared with the Dark tea group and the Green tea group, indicating P < 0.05, P < 0.01, P < 0.001, respectively, with significant differences.
[0071] 3. Experimental results
[0072] 3.1. Feed intake, body weight and slaughter index of broilers
[0073] As shown in Table 4, under the same feeding conditions, compared with the Control group, the feed intake, body weight, half-eviscerated weight and full-eviscerated weight of the experimental group at week 24 were significantly different, the abdominal fat and liver were significantly reduced, and the breast and leg muscle weights increased; compared with the Dark tea group and the Green tea group, the abdominal fat of the probiotic tea groups I, II and III was significantly reduced. This experiment found that adding a suitable proportion of probiotic tea made from summer and autumn albino tea can still increase the breast and leg muscle weights, reduce abdominal fat, and improve the carcass quality of broilers when the body weight is reduced, and adding 2% probiotic tea made from summer and autumn albino tea is the best feed addition ratio.
[0074] Table 4 Basic data of broiler chickens
[0075]
[0076] 3.2. Percentage of chemical components in broiler meat
[0077] As shown in Table 5, compared with the Control group, the protein content in the chest and leg muscles of the test group increased significantly, the fat content and collagen content decreased significantly, and the weight of the chest and leg muscles increased; compared with the Dark tea group and the Green tea group, there was a significant difference in the fat content in the chest and leg muscles of the probiotic tea II and III groups. A certain amount of fat can improve the flavor, tenderness and juiciness of chicken. This experiment found that adding a suitable proportion of probiotic tea made from summer and autumn albino tea can increase the protein content, reduce the fat content, and improve the taste of broilers, and adding 2% probiotic tea made from summer and autumn albino tea is the best feed addition ratio.
