Values are given as means ± standard deviation (n = 8); S = standard diet (0.5% CLA. 3%  ω3 source and 0.5% Vitcon); E = standard diet + 150 ppm vit E; O = standard diet + 2% oregano extract; T = standard diet + 1.5 g/kg prebiotic THEPAX; TE = standard diet + 150 ppm vit E + 1.5 g/kg prebiotic THEPAX; TO = standard diet + 2% oregano extracts + 1.5 g/kg prebiotic THEPAX. Fatty acids of loin are compared with their counterparts of hind leg. Values in the same column with different superscript letters are compared resulting significantly different (p < 0.01).
