This study aimed to investigate the efficiency of dietary fatty acids from various sources on growth performance, meat quality, muscle fatty acid deposition and antioxidant capacity in broilers. 126 Arbor Acres broilers (1 d-old, initial body weight of 45.5 ± 0.72 g) were randomly assigned to three treatments with seven cages per treatment and six broilers per cage. The dietary treatments included: (1) corn-soybean meal basal diet containing 3% soybean oil (control diet, CTL); (2) basal diet + 1% microalgae + 1% linseed oil + 1% soybean oil (ML); (3) basal diet + 2% fish oil + 1% soybean oil (FS). The trial consisted of phase 1 (day 1 to 21) and 2 (day 22 to 42). Compared with CTL, broilers fed ML or FS diet showed improved ( p &lt; 0.05) average daily gain in phase 1, 2, and overall (day 1 to 42), as well as a decreased ( p &lt; 0.05) feed conversion ratio in phase 1 and overall. On day 42, broilers supplemented with FS diet showed increased ( p ≤ 0.05) the relative weights of pancreas and liver, as well as higher ( p &lt; 0.05) redness value in breast and thigh muscle compared with CTL. Broilers offered ML or FS diet had lower ( p &lt; 0.05) the relative weight of abdominal fat and total serum cholesterol content in phase 1, and increased ( p &lt; 0.05) contents of serum glucose, n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), eicosacagetaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and total antioxidant capacity, as well as lower ( p &lt; 0.05) concentrations of malondialdehyde, n-6 PUFA, and n-6/n-3 PUFA ratio in breast and thigh muscle compared with CTL. This research indicates that diets supplemented with fish oil or a combination of microalgae and linseed oil experience improved performance, antioxidant capacities and n-3 PUFA profile in muscle of broilers compared with traditional soybean oil supplemented diets.
