Flaked, skinless and boneless turkey thighs were successively washed in 0.03M sodium phosphate buffers at pH 5.8, 7.4 and 8.0. Proximate, mineral and riboflavin composition, as well as protein efficiency ratio (PER) and apparent digestibility (AD) using the rat bioassay technique were determined for three replications. The color modified tissue (CMT) had a higher (P=0.0429) moisture content and less (P=0.0527, 0.1240 and 0.0047, respectively) crude protein, fat and ash than flaked thigh (THI). Percentage of iron, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium and manganese decreased (P=0.0187) after color modification, whereas calcium, zinc and copper concentrations did not change (P=0.1184) and sodium increased (P=0.0058). Riboflavin was reduced by 30%. The PER of CMT evaluated was lower (P=0.0318) than THI, but higher (P=0.0001) than either casein or egg albumin diets. AD of CMT was 90.7% which is comparable to other meat products. The overall nutritional evaluation of CMT determined that it has potential as a raw material in further processed foods. / Master of Science

Population density as high as 0.70 square foot per bird had no apparent effect on growth, feed conversion, mortality, and market quality on Medium White turkeys to 10 weeks of age. At 14 weeks of age body weight and feed conversion decreased slightly for both males and females allowed less than 0.85 square foot per bird. Market quality and mortality were unaffected for both sexes allowed less than 0.85 square foot per bird. It was noted that consideration had to be given to litter management when high density production methods were practiced because wet litter at decreased floor space levels may contribute to potential disease outbreaks and added cost of dry litter for replacement. Both males and females reared on range were significantly heavier at 18 and 22 weeks of age than those reared in confinement at two and three square feet per bird. Bird density of two square feet per bird in confinement did not adversely affect body weight or feed conversion from 14 to 22 weeks of age. Market quality and mortality were approximately equal for confinement and range reared turkeys. Economic returns above poult and feed cost were found to be approximately 13 and 25 cents higher per square foot of floor space for females and males respectively, when allowed 0.70 rather than 1.30 square foot per bird to 14 weeks of age. / Master of Science
