Each value is the mean of 6 replicates (6 birds/treatment).
Means with different letters within each variable differ (p < 0.05).
FAME, fatty acid methyl esters; CON, control diet; 50 BSFLO, 50% black soldier fly larvae oil diet; 100 BSFLO, 100% black soldier fly larvae oil diet; SEM, standard error of the mean; SFA, sum of saturated fatty acid; MUFA, sum of monounsaturated fatty acid; PUFA, sum of polyunsaturated fatty acid; UFA, sum of unsaturated fatty acid.
