          Abstract

          Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the inclusion of vegetable and mixed glycerin in the diet of broiler quail (Coturnix coturnix coturnix) on animal performance, yield of carcass and organs, and physical and sensory characteristics of the meat. A total of 432 quails aged 1-42 days were used in a completely randomized design with a 4×2+1 factorial arrangement (5, 10, 15, and 20% inclusion of vegetable or mixed glycerin, besides one treatment without glycerin) with 4 replicates of 12 birds each. Feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion, yield (carcass, breast, thigh+drumstick, heart, liver, gizzard, and abdominal fat), and physical and sensory characteristics of the meat. The diet containing mixed glycerin resulted in higher feed intake and feed conversion. The yield of carcass, meat cuts, and organs, as well as the sensory characteristics of the meat, did not vary between the treatments. Abdominal fat content and shear strength were higher in birds fed diets containing vegetable glycerin. The tested glycerin and levels do not interfere with weight gain, yield, and sensory quality of the meat. However, weight gain and feed conversion are lower when mixed glycerin is used, although meat tenderness is higher when 15% vegetable glycerin is used.

          Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da inclusão de glicerinas vegetal e mista na dieta de codorna de corte (Coturnix coturnix coturnix) sobre o desempenho, o rendimento de carcaça e de órgãos, e as características físicas e sensoriais da carne. Utilizaram-se 432 codornas com 1 a 42 dias de idade, em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, no arranjo fatorial 4×2+1 (5, 10, 15 e 20% de inclusão de glicerina vegetal ou mista, mais um tratamento sem glicerina), com 4 repetições e 12 aves cada uma. Avaliaram-se o consumo de ração, ganho de peso, conversão alimentar, rendimento (de carcaça, peito, coxa+sobrecoxa, coração, fígado, moela e gordura abdominal) e características físicas e sensoriais da carne. A dieta com glicerina mista proporcionou maior consumo de ração e conversão alimentar. O rendimento de carcaça, cortes, órgãos, bem como as características sensoriais da carne, não variaram entre os tratamentos. Já a gordura abdominal e a força de cisalhamento foram maiores nas aves que consumiram ração contendo glicerina vegetal. Os níveis e as glicerinas testados não interferem no ganho de peso, nem nos rendimentos e na qualidade sensorial da carne. No entanto, há prejuízo no ganho de peso e na conversão alimentar quando se utiliza glicerina mista, embora a maciez da carne seja maior quando se utilizam 15% de glicerina vegetal.

            Effect of crude glycerin level in the diet of laying hens on egg performance and nutrient utilization.

            An experiment was conducted with 72 Bovans Brown laying hens to determine the effect of dietary crude glycerin on laying performance; egg quality; retention of N, Ca, and P; and metabolizability of energy. The dietary treatments consisted of a control corn-soybean diet containing 6% corn starch (17% CP, 2,775 kcal/kg of AME(n), 0.81% lysine, 0.36% methionine, 3.60% Ca, and 0.37% available P) and 3 experimental diets. In the experimental diets, 2, 4, or 6% crude glycerin (a coproduct of commercial biodiesel production from rapeseed) was substituted for corn starch. During the experimental period (28 to 53 wk of hen age), the dietary level of glycerin had no significant effects on performance indices [i.e., egg production (mean value of all 4 dietary treatments was 95.6%), egg weight (60.4 g), daily egg mass (57.8 g/hen), daily feed consumption (121 g/hen), and feed conversion (0.477 g of egg mass/g of feed consumed)]. No significant treatment effects were found for egg quality parameters (albumen height, Haugh units, yolk color and thickness, density and breaking strength of eggshell), excretion and retention of N, Ca and P, or metabolizability of energy. Linear regression analysis revealed that the AME(n) value of crude glycerol was 3,970 kcal/kg (as-is basis). The results of this study demonstrated that crude glycerin may be incorporated to a level of 6% in the diet of laying hens without any detrimental effect on egg performance, egg quality, nutrient retention, and metabolizability of energy.
