ABSTRACT

The present evaluated the effects of copper sulfate solution (CSS) and arginine powder (Arg) supplements on performance, thyroid hormones and blood biochemistry of broiler chickens fed with canola meal (CM)-based diets. The experimental design was completely randomized with a 3 × 3 factorial and 9 treatments, corresponding to 3 levels of CSS (0, 125 and 250 mg/kg) and 3 levels of Arg (0, 0.1 and 0.2%) (n = 45 per treatment). Feeds were offered ad libitum for 21 days, from 22 to 42 days of age. Feed efficiency was significantly affected by the dietary addition of 250 mg/kg CSS and 0.2% Arg, and by the CSS × Arg interaction. CM supplemented with CSS improved the thyroid gland status and increased the plasma levels of triiodothyronine and thyroxine. Birds fed diets supplemented with 0.2% Arg had lower blood glucose level than the other treatments. The addition of 250 mg/kg CSS and 0.2% Arg reduced the stress caused by the rapid growth of broilers, also increasing the overall bird welfare.


O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos da suplementação com solução de sulfato de cobre (SSC) e arginina em pó (Arg) sobre o desempenho, hormônios tireoidianos e bioquímica sanguínea de frangos de corte alimentados com dietas à base de canola DC. O desenho experimental foi completamente casualizado com fatorial 3 × 3 e nove tratamentos correspondentes a três níveis de inclusão de SSC (0, 125 e 250 mg/kg) e três níveis de Arg (0, 0,1 e 0,2%) (n = 45 para cada tratamento). As rações foram oferecidas ad libitum por 21 dias, de 22 até 42 dias de idade. A eficiência alimentar foi significativamente afetada pela adição de 250 mg/kg de SSC e 0,2% de Arg, assim como pela interação SSC × Arg. A suplementação da DC com SSC melhorou os parâmetros da glândula tireoide e aumentou os níveis plasmáticos de triiodotironina e tiroxina. As aves alimentadas com dietas suplementadas com 0,2% de Arg apresentaram menor nível de glicose sanguínea do que as dos demais tratamentos. A adição de 250 mg/kg de SSC e 0,2% de Arg reduz o estresse causado pelo rápido crescimento dos frangos, além de melhorar as condições gerais de bem estar das aves.

ABSTRACT

A adição de óleos na dieta de frangos de corte proporciona muitas vantagens, visto que, dependendo do perfil de ácidos graxos, pode melhorar o desempenho e atuar como estimulante do sistema imune. Assim, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar as características produtivas, o rendimento de carcaça, os cortes e a resposta imune humoral de frangos de corte alimentados com diferentes fontes de óleos e vitamina E. Foram utilizados 312 pintainhos de corte machos da linhagem Cobb com um dia de idade, distribuídos em delineamento inteiramente ao acaso, com oito repetições compostas de 13 aves por parcela experimental. Os tratamentos experimentais consistiram em óleo de soja, óleo de canola e óleo de canola mais adição de vitamina E. As variáveis analisadas foram ganho de peso, consumo de ração, conversão alimentar, rendimento de carcaça, cortes comerciais e resposta imune humoral. Os resultados obtidos mostram que houve diferença significativa no desempenho somente na fase pré-inicial, quando as aves que receberam o tratamento com óleo de canola e vitamina E apresentaram piores ganhos de peso. Não foram observadas diferenças significativas para as outras variáveis analisadas. Conclui-se que a utilização de diferentes fontes lipídicas associadas ou não à vitamina E não afeta as características produtivas de carcaça, cortes e resposta imune humoral em frangos de corte em relação ao uso de óleo de soja.(AU)


Oil inclusion in poultry diets provides many advantages and according to the fatty acid profile it is possible to achieve performance improvement as well as immune system stimulation. Thus, the study aimed to evaluate productive performance, carcass and cuts yields and also the humoral immune response of broilers consuming diets formulated with different oil sources and vitamin E. A total of 312 one-day old male Cobb was distributed, in a completely randomized design, in three treatments with eight replications of 13 birds. The experimental treatments were the diets that had different oil source as follows: soybean oil, canola oil and canola oils with vitamin E. The analyzed parameters were weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, carcass and cut yields and humoral immune response. For the treatment with canola oil and vitamin E a reduction on weight gain during the pre-starter stage was observed. For the other evaluated parameters, no significant differences were observed. In conclusion, the use of canola oil or canola oil with added vitamin E does not affect the productive performance, carcass and cut yields and humoral immune response in broiler chicken in relation soybean oil use.(AU)

ABSTRACT

The frying by immersion is a widely used cooking process and it improves the food texture and flavor. This study analyzed the initial thermal oxidation in five edible vegetable oils used for frying. Oils samples were heated twice for 30 minutes, at 180 C and then at 240 C simulating the domestic stoves temperatures. The oils decomposition temperatures were determined by TG, being all of them > 250 C. The FA profile was analyzed by GC-FID and a slight decrease of UFA was found in corn and soybean oils. In canola, olive and sunflower oils, UFA was stable after heating treatment. Minor FA decomposition was found in canola oil, and followed by corn, olive, sunflower and soybean oils. NIR spectroscopy analyzes resulted in an extensive bands overlapping. The spectra were modeled by PCA and the oils were classified into two groups: fresh oil and heated oil, mainly by differing in 1900 nm region, associated with the carboxyl signal decrease, which might be related to the initial FA degradation in samples. It could partially understand what occurs to the vegetable oil in the beginning of its thermo-decomposition. These information are useful to consumers, food industry and health surveillance agency.


A fritura por imersão é um processo de cocção utilizado pela inclusão de textura e sabor aos alimentos. Foi analisada a oxidação térmica inicial de cinco óleos vegetais comestíveis utilizados para fritura de imersão. Amostras de óleos foram aquecidas duas vezes por 30 minutos, a 180 ºC e depois a 240 ºC, simulando-se as temperaturas de fogões domésticos. As temperaturas de decomposição dos óleos foram determinadas por TG, sendo > 250 ºC. O perfil de FA foi analisado por GC-FID, detectando-se pequeno decréscimo dos UFA nos óleos de milho e soja. Nos óleos de canola, oliva e girassol, os UFA foram estáveis após o tratamento térmico. A menor decomposição dos FA foi detectado no óleo de canola, seguido de milho, oliva, soja e girassol. Análises por espectroscopia NIR resultaram em grande sobreposição das bandas. Os espectros foram modelados por PCA, classificando-se os óleos em dois grupos: óleo fresco e óleo aquecido, principalmente pelas diferenças na região de 1900 nm, relacionadas ao decréscimo do sinal de carboxilas, e associadas à degradação inicial dos FA nas amostras. Ainda que parcialmente, pode-se entender o que ocorre com os óleos vegetais no início de termo-decomposição, abrangências que são úteis para consumidores, indústria alimentícia e órgão de vigilância sanitária.

ABSTRACT

An herbal extract mixture and yogurt added to the herbal extract mixture were tested for their protective and therapeutic effects on ethanol-induced liver injury. The herbal extract mixture, yogurt and commercial drugs were used for treatment for two weeks prior to administering a single oral dose of ethanol (3 g/kg body weight). The herbal extract mixture and yogurt added to the herbal extract mixture were found to provide protection against ethanolinduced toxicity comparable to the commercial drug treatment, according to the serum and histopathological analysis. It was also shown that co-treatment with herbal extract mixture and yogurt against a triple oral dose of ethanol (2 g/kg body weight, over one week) provided protection against ethanol toxicity. After the initial set of experiments, the herbal extract mixture and yogurt treatments were extended for three more weeks. When compared to the positive control, further treatment with both the herbal extract and yogurt significantly reduced liver injury and resulted in a lower grade of lipid deposition.
