AB - <p><em>The effect of cloves on meat antioxidative state of broiler chicken was determined. A total of one hundred and </em><em>ninety two day-old Cobb 500 broiler chicks were used for the feeding trial. There were four treatments replicated </em><em>thrice with sixteen birds per replicate corresponding to 48 birds per treatment using a Completely Randomized </em><em>Design. Treatment 1 was the control group, treatment 2 contained 0.2% cloves supplemented diet; treatment 3 </em><em>contained 0.3% cloves supplemented diet while treatment 4 contained 0.4% supplemented diet. The feeding trial </em><em>period was to determine the antioxidative state of broiler meat for eight weeks. The results showed that cloves </em><em>supplemented diets significantly (P<0.05) increased muscle glutathione peroxidase concentration and catalase </em><em>while reducing meat lipid oxidation and cholesterol content in broilers compared to the control group. The </em><em>supplementation of 0.2% cloves increased the glutathione peroxidase and catalase</em></p>
