Influência da interação fósforo disponível × fitase da dieta sobre o desempenho, os níveis plasmáticos de fósforo e os parâmetros ósseos de poedeiras comerciais

Dois experimentos foram realizados para avaliar a interação fósforo disponível (Pd) × fitase (UF) da dieta sobre o desempenho, os níveis plasmáticos de fósforo e os parâmetros ósseos de poedeiras. No experimento 1, utilizaram-se 240 aves com 40 semanas de idade distribuídas em esquema fatorial 5 × 2, composto de cinco níveis de fósforo disponível (0,094; 0,194; 0,294; 0,394 e 0,494%) e dois de fitase (0 e 300 unidades de fitase - UF). No experimento 2, utilizaram-se 288 aves com 44 semanas de idade, distribuídas também em esquema fatorial 3 × 4, composto de três níveis de fósforo disponível (0,094; 0,294 e 0,494%) e quatro de fitase (0; 300; 600 e 1.200 UF). No experimento 1, não houve interação fósforo disponível × fitase, mas o nível de fósforo disponível influenciou, de forma quadrática, a produção (PR) e a massa (MO) de ovos, os níveis plasmáticos de fósforo e a conversão por massa de ovos (CMO) e, de forma linear, o teor de cinzas na tíbia (CT) e a resistência óssea (RO). A adição de 300 UF elevou a disponibilidade do fósforo (de 4,034 para 4,784 mg/dL), o teor de CT (de 41,55 para 42,90%) e a resistência óssea (de 9,678 para 11,135 kgf/mm). No experimento 2, a produção aumentou de forma linear com os níveis de fósforo disponível da ração, que aumentaram linearmente com o aumento do nível de fitase. Os teores de cinzas na tíbia aumentaram até o nível de 567 UF. O aumento do fósforo disponível no nível de 600 UF melhorou de forma linear a massa de ovos, a conversão por massa de ovos e a conversão por dúzia de ovos. A suplementação da ração com menor teor de fósforo disponível (0,094%) com 300 a 1.200 UF melhorou a resistência óssea das aves. Poedeiras exigem em média 0,31 a 0,34% Pd. A adição de 300 UF ou o aumento do fósforo disponível em rações com 600 UF melhora a conversão por massa de ovos. A suplementação de rações deficientes em fósforo disponível com pelo menos 300 UF aumenta os níveis plasmáticos de fósforo, os teores de cinzas na tíbia e a resistência óssea de poedeiras comerciais.

A influência da cultura organizacional na adoção de práticas de qualidade Seis Sigma: um estudo exploratório no segmento de farmácia de manipulação do Estado do Rio Grand do Norte

In recent debates about the issues of quality, the theme organizational culture and Six Sigma has appeared ever more frequently. In this context several authors suggest that the adoption of Six Sigma practices is influenced by culture. This work focuses on the relationship of organizational culture and quality to the practices of Six Sigma quality. Thus a descriptive-exploratory and correlational study of forty pharmacies of manipulation from Rio Grande do Norte was undertaken. Data collection identified features of companies and the level of use of the practices of Six Sigma quality that have been identified in the literature. For the Organizational Culture evaluation was used the Competitive Value Model (Cameron & Quinn, 1996), tested on north-American organizations and considered a high value academic and professional instrument. This model has been involved with the taximetrics created by Cameron who classifies quality culture in four levels. The results suggest that the Group and Developmental cultures are associated with higher levels of use of the practices of Six Sigma quality than the Rational and Hierarchical Cultures. Regarding the levels of the culture s quality, the highest levels were most frequently cited in Errors Prevention and Perpetual Improvement and Creativity, being the last one more positively related to the Six Sigma indicators

Influência de Alguns Fatores de Ambiente sobre os Escores de Conformação, Precocidade e Musculatura à Desmama em um Rebanho da Raça Nelore

Dados de 23.251 animais da raça Nelore desmamados no período de 1994 a 1997, pertencentes à Agropecuária Jacarezinho Ltda., foram analisados para se avaliar os efeitos ambientais da idade da vaca, data de nascimento e idade à desmama sobre os escores visuais de conformação (C), precocidade (P) e musculatura (M). Todos os efeitos estudados influenciaram significativamente os escores visuais. As análises indicaram que as vacas que pariram aos sete, oito e nove anos, obtiveram os melhores resultados para os escores visuais de C, P e M, assim como os animais que nasceram mais cedo dentro da estação de parição. Para a idade à desmama foi constatado que, quanto mais tarde o animal for desmamado, melhores serão seus escores. Os animais que desmamaram com 220 dias tiveram os melhores escores, enquanto os piores escores foram daqueles que desmamaram com 140 dias. Portanto, para se ter maior precisão na avaliação genética dos indivíduos jovens, fatores de correção para idade da vaca, data juliana de nascimento e idade à desmama devem ser utilizados sobre os escores de conformação, precocidade e musculatura.
