Aiming at a precocious substitution of live prey by artificial diet, a 20-day experiment with pacu, Piaractus mesopotamicus, larvae using co-feeding and abrupt weaning strategies was set up. At the end of the experiment, larvae fed Artemia showed the best results (P < 0.05) in weight, total length and biomass, compared with other treatments. Larvae fed exclusively a microencapsulated diet never ingested the diet. Diet ingestion in co-fed and abrupt-weaned larvae was low, but did increase during the experiment; however, Artemia influenced diet ingestion on co-fed larvae. Careful considerations should be given to diet processing and formulation to ensure survival and growth of larvae fed exclusively on prepared diets. © 2005 by The Haworth Press, Inc.

The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of three concentrations (3, 6, and 9%) of forage turnip (Raphanus sativus) and physic nut (Jatropha curcas) cakes on dry matter, crude protein, ether extract, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, lignin, acid detergent insoluble nitrogen neutral detergent insoluble nitrogen contents, in vitro dry matter digestibility, pH values and concentrations of N-NH3 in elephant grass silages. It was used an entirely randomized design in factorial arrangement [(2x3)+1]. Experimental PVC silos were used and ensiled material was kept for 62 days. The addition of cakes increased the dry matter contents (P<0.05). The fibrous fractions were reduced (P<0.05) with the inclusion of cakes during the grass ensilage and the CP contents increased (P<0.05). The forage turnip cake provided the same pH and N-NH3 values in ideal levels and the physic nut, added to 9%, increased those values (P<0.05). IVDMD was reduced (P<0.05) when the cakes were added. These co-products can be used in small amounts for elephant grass ensilage in order to provide improvement in chemical and fermentation characteristics of the silages. Nevertheless, physic nut cake shows limitations for its use in animal feeding due to the presence of toxic compounds, making necessary studies for their identification and elimination.

Sexual dimorphism, reproduction and diet are described for Stenocercus caducus from semideciduous forest, in Mato Grosso do Sul state, Central Brazil. Lizards are collected in pitfall traps from December 2000, to December 2001. Sexual dimorphism in S. caducus is apparent, mainly in coloration; although females reach a larger SVL than males. A wide variety of arthropods are fed by S. caducus, with ants and termites numerically, and orthopterans and beetles volumetrically the most common prey items. Ontogenetic differences in diet were noted for S. caducus, with juveniles feeding on lesser prey types and smaller sized prey than adults. The reproduction was seasonal, concentrated in the rainy season, with deposition of more than one clutch per season.

O objetivo do estudo foi desenvolver um ciclo de dietas hipercalóricas para promover obesidade em ratos. Ratos Wistar foram distribuídos em dois grupos: dieta normal (ND = 32; 3,5 kcal/g) e dietas hipercalóricas (HD; n = 32; 4,6 kcal/g). O grupo ND recebeu ração comercial e os animais HD um ciclo de diferentes dietas hipercalóricas, por 14 semanas. As variáveis analisadas foram peso corporal, parâmetros metabólicos e hormonais, pressão arterial sistólica e teste oral de tolerância à glicose. O nível de significância foi de 5%. O ciclo de dietas hipercalóricas promoveu aumento de peso e gordura corporal, pressão arterial sistólica e níveis séricos de glicose, triacilglicerol, insulina e leptina no grupo HD. Além disso, o grupo HD apresentou tolerância à glicose diminuída. em conclusão, os resultados deste estudo mostram que o ciclo de dietas hipercalóricas promove obesidade e exibe várias características comumente associadas com a obesidade humana, como aumento da pressão arterial, resistência à insulina, hiperglicemia, hiperinsulinemia, hiperleptinemia e dislipidemia.
