| Abstract: | 1. The inclusion of ascorbic acid or ascorbyl palmitate in a diet containing soyabean oil (40 g/kg) and butylated hydroxytoluene (25 mg/kg) did not affect the stability of abdominal fat and meat of broilers. 2. Under the same conditions including α‐tocopheryl acetate or ethoxyquin significantly improved the stability of these tissues. |
