Abstract
Settar, P., Akbas, Y., Kirilmaz, L. and Yalcin, S. 1998. Relationships between serum triglyceride concentration and abdominal fat weight in broilers. J. Appl. Anim. Res., 14: 29–32.
To investigate the relationship between abdominal fat weight and serum triglyceride concentration, pedigreed chicks of 10 sire families were used. Blood samples were collected at 56 d and birds were slaughtered. Serum triglyceride concentration was similar in males (47.6±3.2) and females (53.4±3.5). A significant phenotypic correlation between relative abdominal fat weight and serum triglyceride levels was observed.
