Abstract
1. This study evaluated and compared the oxidation status of meat from conventionally-farmed, organic and wild ducks during chilled storage in air or vacuum packaging. In total, 48 carcasses from each group of ducks were investigated, and 24 carcasses from each type of duck were stored under vacuum or in air at 3°C±1°C. Sample analyses were conducted after 1, 3, 6 and 9 days of storage.2. The antioxidant capacity (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl: DPPH), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and free fatty acids in the breast, thigh and wing muscles were determined.3. The antioxidant capacity of meat from conventional ducks was higher than that from organic and wild ducks. The muscles of organic and wild ducks were more susceptible to secondary oxidation (particularly when stored in air) than conventionally-raised birds. The free fatty acid levels in samples of breast and thigh meat from wild ducks on the last day of storage were higher than in conventional and organic ducks.4. The results showed that the oxidation status of meat from conventional ducks was more stable during refrigerated storage than the meat of organic and wild ducks.
