Declarations
:
: The Animal Care Committee at the Institute of Farm Animal Biology authorized animal husbandry practices, and tissue collection in conformity with the good scientific practices outlined in the European Communities Council Directive of 24 th November 1986 (86/609/EEC). For animal welfare, all experimental techniques were carried out according to the ARRIVE standards, and actions were taken to minimize pain and discomfort. The animals that were used for meat production purposes were categorically exempted from experimental treatments, diagnostic sampling, or interventions, therefore no particular ethical approval was necessary. Animal handling and compassionate euthanasia were accomplished in compliance with pertinent ethical laws, standards, and regulations.
