Chemical composition and fatty acid profile in whole body of chickens in response to increased levels of dietary polyunsaturated fat

Abstract

It has been observed recently that diets containing polyunsaturated oils (PUFA), like sunflower, linseed or soybean oils, cause lower body fat deposition in broilers compared to diets rich in saturated fatty acids (SFA) at the same fat inclusion level in the diet. This suggests a different metabolic use of fatty acids (FA) by the body depending on their chemical structure
