Project description
This project aims to identify the key farming practices which may influence chicken meat susceptibility to oxidation. For this purpose, farm practices were recorded and meat samples were taken from diverse European production systems, and the oxidative profile of chicken meat was analysed in different stages of the production and consumption process (raw, cooked, and during gastrointestinal digestion).
