Flaxseed oil is one of the richest sources of a-linolenic acid (ALA). However, the susceptibility of ALA to oxidation and also lack of the convenient methods to deliver these invaluable compound into the lower sections of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) are still unknown. The objective of the current study was to establish a method for ALA targeted delivery into the lower sections of GIT to enrich broiler meat. An in vitro study was performed to use ultrasound to produce oil-in-water nanoemulsions of flaxseed oil stabilized by different wall materials for controlled release of ALA in GIT. The fabricated nanoemulsions were assessed in terms of particle size distribution, zeta-potential, encapsulation efficiency, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and in vitro gastric and intestinal digestions. Results indicated that the nanoemulsions coated by a combination of whey protein-sodium alginate (WP/SA) had a relatively uniform distribution and all particles distributed in less than 1000 nm. The values of zeta-potential for nanoemulsions stabilized by whey protein (WP), sodium alginate (SA) and WP/SA were -31.4, -29.3 and -45.5 mV, respectively. The wall combination of WP/SA showed the best encapsulation efficiency followed by WP. The FESEM results indicated spherical and non-aggregated structures for three types of nanoemulsions. The nanoemulsions stabilized by WP/SA showed a high resistance to in vitro gastric digestion but a relatively rapid release during intestinal digestion. An in vivo study was conducted to enrich broiler meat with ALA, using the best wall material from the in vitro study. In total, 300 one-day-old broilers (Ross, 308) were assigned into 5 experimental treatments including: basal diet (BD), basal diet plus flaxseed oil (BD + FO, 1 mL/kg body weight), basal diet plus ultrasonicated flaxseed oil nanoemulsions stabilized by WP/SA (BD + FON, 1 mL/kg body weight), basal diet plus flaxseed oil and vitamin E (BD + FO + E, 1 mL/kg body weight and 200 mg/kg diet vitamin E) and basal diet plus ultrasonicated flaxseed oil nanoemulsions stabilized by WP/SA and vitamin E (BD + FON + E, 1 mL/kg body weight of nanoemulsion and 200 mg/kg diet vitamin E), Each experimental treatment included 4 replicates in a completely randomized design. Results showed a better feed conversion ratio (FCR) in birds treated with dietary treatments compared with those received basal diet. A greater incorporation of ALA and total poly unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) omega-3 were observed in thigh and breast meat of birds fed by ultrasonicated flaxseed oil nanoemulsions. In comparison to birds fed with BD, a favourably lower PUFA omega-6/omega-3 ratio was observed in birds received nanoemulsions of flaxseed oil. In general, the current study showed that using ultrasound to produce nanoemulsions stabilized by WP/SA has potential to protect ALA of flaxseed oil from gastric digestion and could be used as delivery carriers of ALA omega-3 fatty acid to the posterior sections of chicken GIT. Moreover, ultrasonic fabrication of nanoemulsion has potential to enrich broiler meat by ALA fatty acid.
