QUALITY IMPROVEMENT OF MUSCULAR TISSUE OF CHICKS UNDER USE OF ORGANIC ACIDS IN DIET

Donnik I.M., Lebedeva I.A.

Summary

Influence of nicotinic acid on formation of muscular fibers of broiler chickens at the age of 6 days was studied. In chickens treated with high doses of nicotinic acid, muscle fiber was formed earlier. Obviously, it is directly related to the accumulation of tryptophan in the muscles.

Key words: nicotinic acid, chicken broilers, hypotrophic, normotrophic, hypertrophic, integrity, muscle fiber, okiprolin, triptofan.
