ARSENIC: Research Collaboration

• Fishmeal in feed is a significant source of arsenic in chicken meat

• Fishmeal in feed is a significant source of arsenic in chicken meat

ARSENIC: Research Result

• withdraw fishmeal from feed formula

reduces arsenic level

eliminate fish odor in chicken meat

• withdraw fishmeal from feed formula

reduces arsenic level

eliminate fish odor in chicken meat
