Zusammenfassung:Nisin is a bacteriocin marketed as Nisaplin. The aim of this study was to follow the effect of commercial lantibiotic nisin on the growth performance and carcass quality of broiler rabbits. The increase of average daily gain (by 9.4%) was recorded in the nisin group. The treatment did not have a negative influence on the pH, colour, water-holding capacity, protein and fat contents or energetic value of the rabbit carcass. Inferring from the higher average daily gain and the higher protein and lower fat content, we conclude that the diet supplementation with nisin may enhance the quality of rabbit meat.
