    The aim of the study was to evaluate selected quality characteristics of duck meat depending on the age of the ducks. The material consisted of 100 Pekin – STAR 53 H.Y. crossbred meat ducks of French origin. The ducks were reared for 8 weeks. During the entire period they were reared in an intensive system as broilers. The breast muscles contained from 22.15% to 23.34% crude protein, and the content of this component increased slightly with the age of the ducks. There was a marked increase in crude fat content in these muscles. The leg muscles of the ducks contained less crude protein than the breast muscles (from 21.03% to 22.34%) and markedly more crude fat (from 4.17% to 6.80%). No changes were observed in cholesterol content in the muscles in successive weeks of rearing; only an increasing tendency was noted for cholesterol content as fat content increased in the muscles. The breast muscles contained on average from 2 to 22 μg of retinol and from 10 to 28 μg of gamma-tocopherol per 100 g of muscle tissue, while the leg muscles contained from 10 to 22 μg of retinol and from 10 to 30 μg of gamma-tocopherol. As in the breast muscles, age was not found to affect retinol content in the leg muscles, but the amount of gamma-tocopherol in the leg muscles changed in a reverse in direction as in the breast muscles, i.e. it increased with the age of the ducks. The lipids of the breast muscles of the ducks in weeks 6, 7 and 8 of rearing contained from 46.0% to 47.8% saturated fatty acids (SFA) and from 52.2% to 54.0% unsaturated fatty acids (UFA). An increase was observed in the share of UFA and a decrease in that of SFA between the ages of 6 and 8 weeks. The leg muscles contained markedly less SFA and more UFA than the breast muscles.
