CHLORELLA VULGARIS MICROALGAE AS A SUSTAINABLE FEED INGREDIENT: EFFECTS ON MEAT QUALITY AND MYOPATHY
OCCURRENCE IN BROILER CHICKENS is a conference paper presented at the 69th International Congress of Meat Science and Technology (ICoMST) held in Padova (Italy) from the 20th to the 25th of August 2023. The present study found that dietary Chlorella vulgaris microalgae are a useful strategy to manipulate breast meat color, while higher inclusion rates in diets improve the n-3 fatty acids content in breast meat. The impact of C. vulgaris on myopathies in broilers is not evident, but some differences in the gross examination in WB rate between birds fed the control diet and the diet with 6% m highlight the need for further investigation
