Popis: An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of histidine, β-alanine, blood meal (BM), magnesium oxide (MgO), and their combination on carnosine and anserine concentrations of broiler breast meat. A total of 210 1-d-old broiler chicks were randomly allotted to 3 replicates of 7 dietary treatments: (1) Control diet (C), (2) C+histidine (His), (3) C+β-alanine (β-Ala), (4) C+histidine+β-alanine (His+β-Ala ); (5) C+histidine+β-alanine+MgO (His+β-Ala+MgO), (6) C+5% BM (BM), and (7) C+5% BM+MgO (BM+MgO). Histidine, β-alanine, and MgO were supplemented to diets at 2.9, 3.7, and 4.0 g/kg diet, respectively. The broilers were fed experimental diets for 32 d and the concentrations of carnosine and anserine in breast meat were measured weekly and at 32 d of the age. Results indicated that the concentrations of carnosine, anserine, and their sum in breast meat were increased (linear, P
