Sažetak
The aim of this study was to determine technological properties and basic chemical composition of sheep meat. In this study a total of 50 sheep carcass were used. The dietary groups were controlled, one group feed by basal diet and the other group with diets containing 1.5% dry supplement of Agaricus bisporus, during the 6 months of winter feeding period. The meat pH, EC, color and chemical composition were measured 24 h post-mortem at m. longissimus dorsi. Sheep fed with the addition of Agaricus bisporus had a significantly lower proportion of nutrients (fat and protein) and a significantly higher proportion of water compared with the control group of animals (P <0.001). In selected adult animals fed with supplement of Agaricus bisporus muscular region was darker (L*) with a higher degree of redness (a*) and a lower degree of yellowness (b*) in relation to the same muscular region of the control group. There were no significant differences of fatty acid composition in both groups.
