Item Desempenho e características de carcaça de novilhos alimentados com dietas contendo diferentes fontes de lipídios(2005) Aferri, Gabriela; Leme, Paulo Roberto; Silva, Saulo da Luz e; Putrino, Soraia Marques; Pereira, Angélica Simone CravoThe objective of this trial was to evaluate the animal performance, carcass characteristics and meat tenderness of 36 crossbred steers averaging 14 months old and 320 kg body weight. The animals were fed high concentrate-based diets: control - without additional fat (CO); diet with 5% calcium salt of fatty acids (AG); and diet with 21% whole cottonseed (CA). Dry matter intake of AG treatment was lower (P=0,05) than CA, that differ from CO diet. No significant differences of treatments on daily weight gain and feed efficiency were observed. Blood urea nitrogen was greater (P=0,01) for CA treatment than AG treatment. Carcass dressing, rib eye area, fat thickness, kidney and pelvic fat, liver weight, pH and temperature did not show significant difference. No difference on water loss during cooking and tenderness measured by shear force at different aging times was detected. Diets with 5% calcium salt of fatty acids or 21% whole cottonseed can be used for feedlot with no change on animal performance or carcass characteristics. Este trabalho foi realizado para se avaliar o desempenho animal, as características da carcaça e a maciez da carne de 36 novilhos mestiços, apresentando, ao início do experimento, média de 14 meses de idade e aproximadamente 320 kg de peso vivo. Os animais foram confinados e receberam dietas com alto teor de concentrado: uma controle (CO), sem adição de lipídios; outra contendo 5% de sais de cálcio de ácidos graxos (AG); e outra com 21% de caroço de algodão (CA). A ingestão de matéria seca no tratamento AG foi menor que no CA, mas não diferiu da ingestão do CO. O ganho médio diário e a eficiência alimentar não apresentaram diferenças significativas entre os tratamentos. Os valores encontrados para a análise de uréia sangüínea foram significativamente maiores no tratamento CA em relação ao AG. O rendimento de carcaça, a área de olho de lombo, a espessura de gordura, as gorduras renal e pélvica, o peso do fígado, o pH e a temperatura não foram significativamente diferentes. Não houve diferença também para o índice de perda de água por cozimento e maciez, verificada pela força de cisalhamento nos diferentes tempos de maturação. Os sais de cálcio de ácidos graxos a 5% e o caroço de algodão a 21% podem ser empregados nas rações para confinamento, sem causarem alterações no desempenho animal ou nas características de carcaça.Item Fatty acid composition of the longissimus dorsi muscle in crossbred steers fed different sources of fatty acids(2012) Aferri, Gabriela; Leme, Paulo Roberto; Pereira, Angélica Simone Cravo; Silva, Saulo da Luz e; Putrino, Soraia Marques; Freitas Júnior, José Esler de; Rennó, Francisco PalmaThe objective of this study was to evaluate the fatty acid composition of the longissimus dorsi muscle in carcasses of ¾ Bos taurus taurus ¼ Bos taurus indicus steers fed different sources of fatty acids. Thirty-six steers aged 14 months, with a mean live weight of 320 kg, were fed the following diets for 96 days: 1) control diet, containing no supplemental fat source; 2) CaSFA, diet containing 50 g calcium salts of fatty acids per kg total dry matter; 3) CS diet, containing 210 g cottonseed per kg total dry matter. The fatty acid composition of the longissimus dorsi muscle was determined by gas chromatography. No difference in slaughter weight, carcass weight, backfat thickness, or longissimus dorsi muscle area was observed between animals receiving the diets CaSFA and CS. Animals consuming the two fat-supplemented diets presented higher concentrations of oleic (C18:1), palmitic (C16:0) and stearic (C18:0) acids, corresponding to an average 80.76% of total fatty acids, and higher concentrations of vaccenic acid (C18:1 t11) in the muscle when compared with the control group. Supplementation of the diet of feedlot crossbred steers with CaSFA or cottonseed did not promote significant alterations in the lipid composition of the longissimus dorsi muscle.Item Lipid and selenium sources on fatty acid composition of intramuscular fat and muscle selenium concentration of Nellore steers(2012) Pereira, Angélica Simone Cravo; Santos, Marcos Veiga dos; Aferri, Gabriela; Corte, Rosana Ruegger Pereira da Silva; Silva, Saulo da Luz e; Freitas Júnior, José Esler de; Leme, Paulo Roberto; Rennó, Francisco PalmaThe objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of lipid and selenium sources in diets for finishing Nellore steers on the fatty acid composition and selenium concentration of the longissimus muscle. Fifty Nellore steers (body weight = 458±39 kg) were assigned to one of six dietary treatments: 1) diet containing sunflower seed and inorganic selenium; 2) sunflower seed and organic selenium; 3) whole cottonseed and inorganic selenium; 4) whole cottonseed and organic selenium; 5) soybeans and inorganic selenium; and 6) soybeans and organic selenium. Diets were formulated with the same amount of nitrogen and calories and supplied once daily to steers in collective pens, with three animals per pen, for 120 d. At the end of the trial, steers were slaughtered and samples of the longissimus muscle were collected for fatty acid and selenium analysis. Effect of selenium sources was detected for selenium concentration in the longissimus muscle. Organic selenium had higher concentrations in the meat compared with inorganic selenium. The total saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids did not differ between the sources of lipids and selenium. For selenium sources, no differences were observed between the concentrations of polyunsaturated fat. Also, no differences in C18:2 cis-9 trans-11 concentrations were noted; however, steers fed sunflower seed presented greater proportions of this fatty acid in the meat. The results indicated that the use of sunflower seed, cottonseed or soybeans and organic or inorganic selenium in feedlot diets to Nellore cattle does not alter the great part of the fatty acid profile of the longissimus muscle. However, the inclusion of sunflower seed in the diet increases the meat CLA cis-9, trans-11, which is desirable and beneficial for the health of consumers.Item Processamento do milho grão sobre desempenho e saúde ruminal de cordeiro(2015) Oliveira, Letícia Silva; Mazon, Madeline Rezende; Carvalho, Roberta Ferreira; Pesce, Domingos Marcelo Cenachi; Silva, Saulo da Luz e; Nogueira Filho, José Carlos Machado; Gallo, Sarita Bonagurio; Leme, Paulo RobertoTwenty-two males not neutered, Dorper x St. Agnes, with approximately 90 days of age and average live weight of 27.0±4.4kg were fed with a diet wich contained high concentrate with 20% protein pellet-mineral (Grano Entero (r)), 5% grass hay coast-cross and 75% corn in the form of whole kernel corn (MGI), ground corn grain (MGM) or high moisture corn (MGU) for performance evaluation in confinement for a period of 14 days of adaptation to the diets and facilities and 65 days of confinement. Then the animals were slaughtered at average final weight (PVF) of 47.97±5.13kg and gastric content was evaluated for quantification of protozoa, and a papillary review was conducted. The experimental design was in randomized blocks. There was no difference between treatments (P>0.05) for average daily weight gain, feed efficiency, daily dry matter intake, carcass characteristics and meat. MGI-treated animals had higher gastric contents, the lower ruminal pH greater AP (% of surface absorption) and the larger papillary area was compared with other treatments. Animals treated with MGI had better results for the final weight gain, but for the other parameters studied, no difference was observed. Vinte e dois cordeiros machos não castrados, Dorper x Santa Inês, com aproximadamente 90 dias de idade e peso vivo médio inicial de 27,0±4,4kg, foram alimentados com uma dieta com elevada proporção de concentrado com 20% de pelete proteico-mineral (Grano Entero(r)), 5% de feno de capim coast-cross e 75% de milho, na forma de milho grão inteiro (MGI), milho grão moído (MGM) ou milho grão úmido (MGU), para avaliação de desempenho no confinamento por um período de 14 dias de adaptação às dietas e às instalações e de 65 dias de confinamento. Em seguida, os animais foram abatidos com peso vivo médio final (PVF) de 47,97±5,13kg e o conteúdo gástrico foi avaliado para quantificação de protozoários, e foi realizada avaliação papilar. O delineamento experimental foi o de blocos casualizados. Não houve diferença entre os tratamentos (P>0,05) quanto ao ganho de peso médio diário, eficiência alimentar, ingestão diária de matéria seca, características da carcaça e da carne. Os animais tratados com MGI tiveram maior conteúdo gástrico, menor pH ruminal, maior AP (% da superfície de absorção) e maior área papilar em comparação com os outros tratamentos. Os animais tratados com MGI tiveram melhores resultados para o peso final, mas para os demais parametros estudados não foi observada diferença.
