The study locations of this study include ma- jor open markets located in the capital city (Benin City) of Edo State designated as market A, B, C, and D respectively. A total twenty-five samples were collected, distinctly sealed in a polyethtlene bags which was pre-treated and analysed following stan- dard protocols. All reagents used for analysis were of analytical grade. The result revealed that the chicken meat sample sourced from a local farm had a significantly p<0.05 higher level of the HDL-C (21.67±1.53) in comparison to the imported frozen.. Read More»
