In our research effects of dietary supplementation with vitamins E and C, selenium (Se), their combination, and plant polyphenols (Farmatan BCO) on oxidative stability (OS) in broiler meat were investigated. In experiment we have included 600 Ross 308 broilers. From the 21st day of the experiment we enriched broiler’s diet with 5 % linseed oil and assigned the animals to 6 groups: control group without supplementation (K), group E (200 IU vitamin E/kg), C (250 mg vitamin C/kg), Se (0,20 mg Se/kg), ECSe (250 IU vitamin E/kg, 250 mg vitamin C/kg and 0,20 mg Se/kg) and Fa (500 mg Farmatan BCO/kg). The effects of supplements on OS was measured using levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), vitamin E, water soluble antioxidants (ACW), Se, and fatty acid composition in fresh, frozen (3 months at -20 oC) and/or cooked breast muscles. Based on our results we can conclude that the combination of supplements (ECSe) decreased feed intake. Vitamin E efficiently inhibited lipid oxidation (E and ECSe), it’s concentration in broiler breast meat (E and ECSe) was increased. Dietary supplement of vitamin C didn`t have an impact on lipid oxidation. Se levels in broiler breast meat were increased with dietary supplementation (Se and ECSe). Dietary supplements did not have effect on fatty acid profile of broiler breast meat in terms of human nutrition.
