Preliminary results on the influence of amaranthus
seeds on carcass and meat quality of fatteners

In an experiment with 3 groups of fatteners, the effect of amaranthus seeds on some indices of slaughter evaluation and qualitative traits of M. longissimus dorsi was studied. Amaranthus seeds were given in the mixtures in the amount of 25% in the form of a fine meal or expandate ("Popping"). It was found that irrespective of the form of administration, this amount of amaranthus in the mixtures had no significant effect on chemical composition, physico-chemical and sensory properties of meat or carcass quality (backfat layer, loin eye area).
