Infos

Addition of fats or oils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids in poultry diets is a straightforward approach to enrich poultry products with polyunsaturated fatty acids. Consequently, there has been a great interest in using different types of fats, oils or oil seeds as feed additives in poultry nutrition. The purpose of this book is to educate the readers on the role of dietary fats in poultry on: production aspects, health effects, growth and product quality. In addition, the role of poultry food products in meeting the human requirement of much needed functional nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids is discussed. We have also included a chapter on appropriate techniques for lipid analysis. We have attempted to include as much up to date and relevant information on the roles of fats and fatty acids in poultry nutrition, health and product quality in this book. Our intended audience for this book is graduate and undergraduate students in animal and poultry sciences together with professionals in the poultry and allied industries.
