Effect of transport length on in vivo oxidative status and breast meat characteristics in outdoor-reared chicken genotypes

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of transport length on in vivo oxidative status and breast meat characteristics in two chicken genotypes reared under free range conditions. A total of 200 male chicks, 100 from fast-growing (Ross 308) and 100 from medium-growing (Naked Neck) strain we...
