摘要:
A novel method for improving the meat quality of an animal is provided. In oneembodiment, the method comprises feeding the animal a diet supplemented witholeic acid and tocols and subsequently formulating the meat with a non-tocolantioxidant such as rosemary extract. The source of the oleic acid and/ortocols may be transgenic corn that employs the FAD-2 gene as a silencing agentfor a high-oleic phenotype and/or expresses the HGGT gene for a high-tocotrienol phenotype. The method improves the quality of meat from both non-ruminants and ruminants.
