Özet

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of safflower oil supplementation in quail diets on tibia-femur biomechanical properties. A total of 180 one-day-old quail chicks were randomly divided into three groups, each containing 60 chicks. Each group was randomly divided into six subgroups, each containing 10 chicks. All chicks were fed a diet based on corn and soybean meal. The control group was fed the basal ration and experimental groups were fed the basal ration plus 0.5% and 2% safflower oil. The use of safflower oil in quails did not affect the growth performance parameters. Malondialdehyde, glutathione, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase exhibited a linear response to the addition of safflower. Ceruloplasmin, albumin, total protein, and globulin were not affected by the addition of safflower oil. Acetic acid and SCFA were linearly associated with safflower oil content. There were no statistical differences in propionic, butyric, isobutyric, valeric, isovaleric, isocaproic, and caproic acids and BCFA in quails fed different percentages of safflower oil. Feeding a diet containing safflower content in quails.
