This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the supplementation of flaxseed oil and/or vitamin E on dry matter (DM) and nutrient digestibility, milk composition, fatty acid composition, and antioxidant capacity in buffalo milk. Four crossbred female dairy water buffaloes (97 ± 22 days in milk; 6.57 ± 2.2 kg of milk/day, mean ± SD) were distributed in a 4 × 4 Latin square design, with a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement (with or without flaxseed oil at 25 g/kg dry matter; with or without vitamin E at 375 IU/kg dry matter). The experimental period was divided into four periods of 21 days each (16 days for adaptation; five days for data collection). There were four treatments: control diet (no flaxseed oil and no added vitamin E); flaxseed oil diet (flaxseed oil at 25 g/kg DM); vitamin E diet (vitamin E at 375 IU/kg DM), and a combination of both flaxseed oil and vitamin E. The animals were fed total mixed ratios. For all response variables, there was no interaction between flaxseed oil and vitamin E. Flaxseed oil supplementation reduced neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (ADF) apparent total tract digestibility, increased the n-3 fatty acid concentration in milk approximately three-fold while reducing the n-6/n-3 ratio from 9.3:1 to 2.4:1. Vitamin E supplementation increased NDF apparent total tract digestibility and milk total antioxidant capacity. Although there was no interaction between the treatments; flaxseed oil supplementation in lactating buffaloes increased polyunsaturated fatty acid, while vitamin E supplementation increased antioxidant capacity and decreased oxidation products.

Abstract The study objective was to assess the contribution of fat source and vitamin E (VE) supplementation on growth performance, antioxidant status, and fatty acid profile in the liver of pigs at heavy slaughter weight (148.09 ±1.64 kg). A total of 72 individually-fed pigs (36 barrows, 36 gilts; 28.55 ±1.16 kg) were randomly assigned to 12 dietary treatments in a 2 × 6 factorial arrangement. Fat treatments were tallow and corn-oil. The VE treatments included four levels of α-tocopheryl-acetate (ATA; 11, 40, 100, and 200 ppm) and two levels of mixed tocopherols (primarily γ-tocopherol; 40 and 100 ppm). Liver samples were collected at slaughter. Data analysis were performed by ANOVA using GLM in SAS. No effect of dietary fat sources, isoforms of VE, and levels of γ-tocopherol were detected on growth performance or liver antioxidant status (GSH, GSSG, SOD, and MDA). Increasing dietary ATA linearly increased overall ADG (0.98, 1.02, 1.02, and 1.08 kg/day; P = 0.02) from 28 to 150 kg; overall ADG of pigs fed γ-tocopherol-diets was 1.07 and 1.04 kg/day, respectively. An interaction between fat sources and ATA was observed on cumulative ADG during Phase1-3 (28-100 kg; P = 0.04) and Phase1-4 (28-125 kg; P = 0.03) wherein pigs fed corn-oil-diet, but not tallow-diet, had increased ADG with increased dietary ATA. Increasing dietary ATA quadratically increased SOD activity (P < 0.05; highest at 100 ppm), and quadratically decreased MDA content (P < 0.05; lowest at 40 ppm) in the liver. Liver fatty acid profile was affected by fat source (P < 0.05) but not VE treatment, pigs fed corn-oil-diets had less SFA (34.23 vs. 35.45%; P = 0.02) and MUFA (11.98 vs. 18.38%; P < 0.0001), but more PUFA (49.14 vs. 40.78%; P < 0.0001) than pigs fed tallow-diets in the liver. Beneficial effects of dietary VE supplementation were observed on growth performance and antioxidant status of pigs under conditions of this study.

The effect of partial or complete substitution (2.5% and 5%, respectively) of flaxseed oil for soybean oil on the fatty acid profile, oxidative stability and sensory quality of turkey breast meat was studied. Turkeys were fed experimental diets for 3, 4, 5 or 6 weeks before being slaughtered at 16 weeks of age. The percentages of α-linolenic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid in the total fatty acid pool of meat were determined by dietary intake and feeding duration. Even a prolonged dietary treatment with 5% flaxseed oil did not significantly increase the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances content of the turkey meat and did not have a detrimental effect on the sensory properties. The recommended n-6 : n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids ratio (<4 : 1) in turkey meat can be easily achieved by feeding turkeys a diet containing 2.5% flaxseed oil for 3 weeks. To maintain the above ratio and increase eicosapentaenoic acid concentrations in the meat, the diet should contain 5% flaxseed oil.
