TI  - Effect of rosemary, echinacea, green tea extracts and ascorbic acid on broiler 
      meat quality.

AB  - This study evaluated the effect of addition some plant extracts and ascorbic acid 
      in presence of distilled water as the control on the broiler thigh meat color, 
      subsequent lipid oxidation (TBARS) and rancidity development during frozen 
      storage of chicken thigh meat. All the extracts were used in the density of 1000 
      ppm. The results showed that all the antioxidants had significant effect on lipid 
      oxidation as measured by TBARS value during frozen storage at -20 degrees C for 
      120 days. However, lipid oxidation only occurred to a limited extent and was 
      insufficient to cause rancid flavor development. The results also demonstrated 
      that rosemary and green tea were the most effective antioxidants in stabilization 
      of a* value. Echinacea, green tea and rosemary extracts were effective 
      antioxidants and strongly inhibited oxidation. Present findings show that these 
      plants extracts exhibit greater antioxidant efficiency compared to ascorbic acid.
