          Abstract

          Resumo:O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da inclusão de simbióticos e de monensina sódica em dietas sobre o desempenho, as características de carcaça e a qualidade da carne de novilhas mestiças Angus em confinamento. Utilizou-se um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com 64 animais distribuídos em quatro tratamentos: controle, dieta sem suplementação; dieta suplementada com simbióticos; dieta com monensina sódica; e dieta com simbióticos e monensina sódica. A dieta com monensina sódica e a dieta com simbióticos e monensina sódica proporcionaram maior ganho de peso médio diário e ganho de peso vivo total, além de melhorar a eficiência alimentar e biológica dos animais em comparação ao controle. A dieta de simbióticos, a de monensina e a de simbióticos com monensina sódica ocasionaram a redução da ingestão de matéria seca, elevaram o peso do filé da costela e os teores de lipídeos totais na carne. A dieta com simbióticos proporcionou a redução da força de cisalhamento da carne em relação ao controle. A inclusão de simbióticos, com ou sem monensina sódica, na dieta de novilhas mestiças Angus confinadas, beneficia o desempenho animal e algumas características físico-químicas da carne.

          Abstract:The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of inclusion of synbiotics and sodic monensin on the performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality of Angus crossbred heifers on feedlot. A completely randomized block design was carried out with 64 animals distributed in four treatments: control, a diet without supplementation; a diet supplemented with synbiotics; a diet with sodic monensin; and a diet with synbiotics and sodic monensin. The diet with sodic monensin and the diet with synbiotics and sodic monensin increased the average daily gain and total live weight gain, besides improving the feed and biological efficiency of animals compared to control treatment. The diet with synbiotics, with sodic monensin, and with synbiotics and sodic monensin decreased dry matter intake, and increased the rib fillet weight (noix) and the total lipid concentration in the meat. The diet with synbiotics facilitated the reduction of meat shear force compared to control treatment. The inclusion of synbiotics, with or without sodic monensin, in diet of Angus crossbred heifers, improves animal performance on feedlot and some physicochemical characteristics of meat.

              Relationship between collagen characteristics, lipid content and raw and cooked texture of meat from young bulls of fifteen European breeds.

              Variations in texture were determined for 10 day aged raw and cooked Longissimus thoracis (LT) muscle from 436 bulls of 15 European cattle breeds slaughtered at an age of 13-16 months. Variations in texture were related to differences in pH 24 h post-mortem, sarcomere length, collagen characteristics and lipid content. The shear force of cooked meat samples varied from 43.8 to 67.4 N/cm². Simmental, Highland and Marchigiana cattle had the highest shear force values and Avileña-Negra Ibérica, Charolais, Casina and Pirenaica cattle had the lowest values. Cooked meat toughness showed a weak negative correlation to lipid content (P<0.001) but no correlation to collagen characteristics. Raw meat texture measured by compression correlated positively (P<0.001) with total and insoluble collagen. In conclusion, collagen characteristics showed correlation to raw meat texture but not to cooked meat toughness of LT muscle in European young bulls. Copyright © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
