In order to study the effects of Artichoke leaf powder on the quality parameters of thigh and breast meat and fatty acids profile of breast, 240 day-old Japanese quails were assigned to 4 treatments including basal diet (control), basal diet supplemented with levels of 15 and 30 g/Kg Artichoke powder and 300 mg/Kg vitamin E with 4 replicates in a completely randomized design. Artichoke powder and vitamin E resulted in lower malondialdiahid in thigh meat. The amount of saturated fatty acids (SFA) was lower in breast meat of birds fed diet containing 15 g/Kg Artichoke powder. The amounts of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in quail breast meat did not affected by the experimental treatments. The amounts of alpha-linolenic acid and PUFA were greater in breast meat of quails treated with Artichoke powder than birds fed basal diet and diet supplemented with vitamin E. PUFA/SFA ratio, total amounts of omega-3 fatty acids and also omega-6/omega-3 ratio were improving in birds treated with Artichoke powder. This study showed that dietary levels of 15 and 30 g/Kg Artichoke leaf powder can increase linolenic acid and consequently relative improvement of nutritional value of quail breast meat.
