Survey of the fatty acid composition of Canadian beef: Backfat and longissimus lumborum muscle

[EN]A survey of Canadian retail beef was undertaken with emphasis on the trans fatty acid (TFA) and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers, and compared with current health recommendations. Thirty striploin steaks were collected in the winter and summer from major grocery stores in Calgary (Alberta, Canada). Steak fatty acid compositions (backfat and longissimus lumborum muscle analysed separately) showed minor seasonal differences with lower total saturates (PB0.05) and higher total monounsaturates (PB 0.01) in winter, but no differences in total polyunsaturated fatty acids. The ratio of n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid in longissimus lumborum averaged 5.8. The average TFA content in longissimus lumborum was 0.128 g 100 g_1 serving size, and 10t-18:1 was found to be the predominant isomer (32% of total trans), while vaccenic acid was second most abundant (15% of total trans). The CLA content in longissimus lumborum was similar to that of backfat, ranging from 0.43 to 0.60% of total fatty acids and rumenic acid represented 60% of total isomers. Overall, there is still room for improvement in the saturated, mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acid composition of Canadian beef to meet general dietary guidelines for human consumption and additional targets should include reducing 10t-18:1 while increasing both rumenic and vaccenic acids.

Evaluation of wheat or corn dried distillers' grains with solubles on performance and carcass characteristics of feedlot steers

[EN]A study was conducted on crossbred steers (n=275; 376±924 kg) to evaluate performance and carcass quality of cattle fed wheat or corn dried distillers’ grains with solubles (DDGS). The control ration contained 86.6% rolled barley grain, 5.7% supplement and 7.7% barley silage (DM basis). The four treatments included replacement of barley grain at 20 or 40% of the diet (DM basis) with wheat or corn DDGS. Steers were slaughtered at a common end weight of 645 kg with 100 steers randomly (n=20 per treatment) selected for determination of the retail yield of sub-primal boneless boxed beef (SPBBB). Data were analyzed as a completely randomized design using pen as the experimental unit. Feeding increasing levels of wheat DDGS led to a quadratic increase in dry matter intake (DMI) (P<0.01), whereas increasing levels of corn DDGS led to a quadratic decrease in DMI (P=0.01). Average daily gain was not influenced (P=0.13) by feeding wheat or corn DDGS, but cattle fed corn DDGS exhibited a quadratic increase (P=0.01) in gain:feed. As a result, a quadratic increase (P<0.01) in calculated NEg of the diet was observed as corn DDGS levels increased. A linear decrease (P=0.04) in days on feed (169, 166 and 154 d) was noted when increasing levels of wheat DDGS (0, 20 and 40%) were fed. Dressing percentage increased in a linear fashion with wheat DDGS (P<0.01) inclusion level and in a quadratic fashion (P=0.01) as corn DDGS inclusion level increased although other carcass traits were not affected (P=0.10) by treatment. The results indicate that replacement of barley grain with corn or wheat DDGS up to 40% of the diet (DM) can lead to superior performance (improved gain:feed or reduced days on feed, respectively) with no detrimental effect on quality grade or carcass SPBBB yield.

El mundo intelectual del ‘antiguo autor’: las Auctoritates Aristotelis en la Celestina primitiva

El primer acto de La Celestina, escrito por un autor anónimo, contiene abundantes citas de Aristóteles, Séneca, Boecio y pseudo Boecio: a partir de aquí la filología celestinista ha solido deducir filiaciones e intenciones diversas para esta primera parte de la obra. En este artículo se demuestra que todas y cada una de dichas citas proceden de un florilegio filosófico muy difundido en la época —sobre todo en las facultades de artes— conocido como Auctoritates Aristotelis o Parvi flores: este hallazgo sitúa al anónimo autor de la Celestina primitiva —y probablemente a su público— en un ambiente netamente universitario, define con precisión la frontera entre la parte del antiguo autor y la parte de Rojas y obliga a revisar las afinidades ideológicas y filosóficas que se le venían suponiendo al anónimo —sobre todo en relación a su presunto senequismo— así como la intención que se le atribuía a este primer acto.

Gestión de montes en la reserva de la biosfera de Urdaibai: una oportunidad perdida

[ES] En este trabajo se realiza una valoración de la gestión forestal planteada en la Reserva de la Biosfera de Urdaibai. Tras contextualizar el caso en la problemática ambiental generada por las plantaciones de pino radiata en el País Vasco y el marco normativo en que se desarrolla su explotación, se estudia la evolución sufrida por el Plan Rector de Uso y Gestión de Urdaibai como consecuencia de la presión ejercida por el sector forestalista.
