| Popis: | The relative proportions and relationships of pipping muscle and liver nutrients in broiler embryos on d 15 and 19 of incubation were determined. Ninety hatching eggs obtained from a 30-wk-old broiler breeder flock were incubated on 3 replicate tray levels (30 eggs per tray) for 19 d. On 15 and 19 d of incubation, 10 live embryos per tray level were necropsied to collect pipping muscle and liver samples. As the broiler embryo developed between d 15 and 19 of incubation, the glycogen and protein concentrations of the pipping muscle increased, whereas those of the liver decreased, and the fat concentration of the pipping muscle decreased, whereas that of the liver increased. Across d 15 and 19, pipping muscle glycogen was negatively correlated with liver fat, whereas on d 15, pipping muscle glucose was negatively correlated with liver fat, and pipping muscle glycogen was negatively correlated with liver glucose and glycogen. Pipping muscle fat was negatively correlated with liver glucose on d 15 but positively correlated with liver glycogen on d 19. In conclusion, in preparation for hatch between d 15 and 19 of incubation, weights of the liver and pipping muscle of broiler embryos increased relative to their BW. This occurred in association with the accumulation of glucose, glycogen, and protein and with the loss of fat in the pipping muscle. The carbohydrate stores in the pipping muscle were supported by the active metabolism of the liver before 19 d of incubation, which included the transfer of glucose and fatty acids to the pipping muscle via the circulation. Despite the liver's active supply of these nutrient subunits for assimilation and oxidation by the pipping muscle, there was an overall accumulation of hepatic fat between d 15 and 19 of incubation. These data suggest that the integrated changes in the energy profiles of pipping muscle and liver between 15 and 19 d of embryogenesis are integral to the broiler embryo's preparation for hatch. |
