Efeitos da relação volumoso: concentrado e do peso ao abate sobre os componentes da perna de cordeiros Ile de France x Ideal confinados

Foram avaliados os seguintes componentes da perna dos animais: peso total e comprimento, peso total de músculos, peso dos músculos bíceps femural + semimembranoso + semitendinoso + quadríceps femural + adutor, peso total de ossos, peso do fêmur e das gorduras subcutânea, intermuscular e total, porcentagens de todos estes pesos em relação ao peso total da perna, comprimento e circunferência do fêmur e calculados a relação músculo:osso e o índice de musculosidade. Foram utilizados 20 cordeiros inteiros Ile de France x Ideal (F1) com peso vivo médio ao início do experimento de 18,2 ± 0,74 kg e idade média de 83 ± 10 dias. As relações volumoso (V):concentrado (C) utilizadas no experimento foram 50V:50C ou 30V:70C, com base na matéria seca (MS), sendo as rações isoprotéicas (18% de proteína bruta na MS) e isoenergéticas (10,92 MJ de energia metabolizável/kg MS). Os animais foram abatidos aos 30 ou 34 kg de peso vivo. Os abatidos mais pesados apresentaram perna, total de músculos, músculos bíceps femural + semimembranoso + semitendinoso + quadríceps femural + adutor, total de ossos, fêmur e gorduras subcutânea e total mais pesados, além de maior circunferência do fêmur. Os animais que receberam a ração com relação 30V:70C apresentaram menores relação músculo:osso e índice de musculosidade e maior porcentagem de gordura intermuscular em relação ao peso total da perna.

Determination of crude protein, crude fiber and crude fat in twenty-five genotypes of kale (B-oleracea var. acephala)

The aim of the study was to determine the percentage of crude protein, crude fiber and crude fat (ether extract) of 25 genotypes of kale from the Germplasm Bank of Instituto Agronomico de Campinas and of one genotype grown in the region of Jaboticabal-SP. The plants were cultivated in the field, and the leaves after collection were pre-dried in a convection oven at 65 degrees C for 72 h. Afterward, the leaves were analyzed for crude protein, crude fiber and crude fat (ether-soluble materials). Significant differences were detected among the different genotypes for all the characteristics examined. of the genotypes studied, six showed more than 30% crude protein: HS-20 (32.56%), Comum (31.70%), Couve de Arthur Nogueira 2 (31.16%), Pires 2 de Campinas (30.63%), Manteiga 1-916 (30.36%), and Manteiga de Ribeirao Pires I-2446 (30.03%). In relation to crude fiber, the highest percentage was seen in the genotype Manteiga de Mococa (10.92%), differing significantly from the other genotypes studied. With regard to crude fat, the highest percentage was found in the genotype HS-20 (3.72%), and Pires 1 de Campinas (3.34%). of the genotypes tested, HS-20 stood out among the others, showing both the highest percentage of protein and fat.

Influence of different fat sources on the performance, egg quality, and lipid profile of egg yolks of commercial layers in the second laying cycle

This study was designed to evaluate the effects of different fat sources on the performance, egg quality, and lipid profile of the egg yolks of layers in their second production cycle. The fat sources were cottonseed oil, soybean oil, lard, sunflower oil, or canola oil. Experimental diets were fed to postmolt ISA Brown layers at 70 wk of age and the experimental period was 74 to 86 wk of age. The different fat sources did not influence performance or eggshell quality, but lipid profile of the egg yolk changed as a function of dietary fat sources. In general, the best changes, such as lower level of saturated fatty acids, higher levels of alpha-linolenic acid and DHA, and lower linoleic acid levels, were promoted by the addition of canola oil, but it did not promote enrichment of the eggs with polyunsaturated fatty acids.

The Effect of the Aerobic Training on Morphological and Histochemical Characteristics of Tibial Anterior Muscle in Rats Fed with High Fat Diet

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of high fat diet and different frequencies of swimming programs in the tibial anterior muscle in male Wistar rats. In conclussion, the aerobic training during two days/week and five days/week caused injuries in muscle fibers and the high fat diet did not cause statically significant results compared to normal diet.

The Accuracy of National Body Fat Cutoff Levels in the Prediction of Elevated Blood Pressure among Brazilian Male Adolescents

Objective: To assess viability of the development of percentage body fat cutoffs based on blood pressure values in Brazilian adolescents.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 358 male subjects from 8 to 18 years old. Blood pressure was measured by the oscilometric method, and body composition was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).Results: For the identification of elevated blood pressure, these nationally developed body fat cutoffs presented relative accuracy. The cutoffs were significantly associated with elevated blood pressure [odds ratio = 5.91 (95% confidence interval: 3.54-9.86)].Conclusions: Development of national body fat cutoffs is viable, because presence of high accuracy is an indication of elevated blood pressure.
