Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant properties of rice bran oil on chicken's breast and heart muscles. In this study, rice bran oil (RBO) was injected into the yolk and chorioallantoic membrane in embryonic eggs. Variables such as, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), glutathione (GSH) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were measured. Results showed that the malondialdehyde (MDA) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in breast muscle of control group compared to treated groups. The level of GSH and FRAP were considerably higher either in breast or muscle of that group which has been injected by RBO into the yolk. The total carotenoid content of breast muscle was significantly (P < 0.05) lower in control group compared to treated groups. It was concluded that RBO can reduce lipid oxidation and improve oxidative stability in chicken's breast and heart muscles.
