RESUMEN
ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was the comparative analysis of selected attributes of nutritional and technological quality of pork from Naïma and DanBred gilts mated with P-76 boars. The research was carried on 50 pigs (25 in each group) reared under the same environmental conditions and slaughtered at about 115±5.0 kg. Both analyzed crossbreds populations were characterized by overall good nutritional and technological quality. However the loins from DanBred×P-76 compared with those from Naïma×P-76 had significantly greater glycogen and less lactate concentration in early post mortem period, higher pH at all measurement points (besides no statistical differences in pH measured 2 hours post mortem), lower thermal drip and drip loss measured 96 and 144 hours post mortem and lower lightness (except no differences measured 48 hours post mortem). Additionally loins from DanBred×P-76 contained more protein and less water. No statistical differences in IMF content between both analysed groups were noted (their average values were below 2%). Aforementioned may suggest that crossing both Naïma and DanBred hybrids with P-76 boars may not improve IMF content or increase marbling scores to the levels preferred for culinary purposes.
RESUMO: O objetivo deste estudo foi a análise comparativa de atributos selecionados de qualidade nutricional e tecnológica de suínos provenientes de marrãs Naïma e DanBred acasaladas com machos P-76. A pesquisa foi realizada em 50 suínos (25 em cada grupo) criados nas mesmas condições ambientais e abatidos com cerca de 115 ± 5,0 kg. Ambas as populações de mestiços analisadas foram caracterizadas por uma boa qualidade nutricional e tecnológica geral. No entanto, os lombos de DanBred × P-76 em comparação com os de Naïma × P-76 tinham glicogênio significativamente maior, e menor concentração de lactato no período post mortem inicial, pH mais alto em todos os pontos de medição (além de nenhuma diferença estatística no pH medido 2 horas post mortem), menor gotejamento térmico e perda de gotejamento medido 96 e 144 horas post mortem e menor leveza (exceto nenhuma diferença medida 48 horas post mortem). Além disso, os lombos de DanBred × P-76 continham mais proteína e menos água. Não foram observadas diferenças estatísticas no conteúdo do FMI entre os dois grupos analisados (seus valores médios estavam abaixo de 2%). O resumido acima pode sugerir que o cruzamento de híbridos Naïma e DanBred com machos P-76 pode não melhorar o conteúdo de IMF ou aumentar as pontuações de marmoreio para os níveis preferidos para fins culinários.
RESUMEN
A proposta desta revisão é resumir as informações sobre os estudos da engorda de lagostas em gaiolas no Vietnam. Esta sinopse demonstra que os juvenis podem ser cultivados sob regime de confinamento e se adapta bem as condições artificiais com alimentação. Na aquicultura, na engorda de juvenis de lagostas capturadas na natureza (Palinuridae) até o tamanho comercial está emergindo no Vietnam. No Vietnam o cultivo de lagostas em gaiolas no mar começou na década de 1990. Nesse contexto tradicionalmente a Panulirus ornatus e outras espécies são alimentadas com rejeito de pesca e pescado de baixo valor. O objetivo global da engorda pode ser o alívio da pobreza, e neste respeito para os criadores de lagostas é em particular uma oportunidade atrativa para brasileiros devido à captura de pós-larvas de lagostas (com autorização dos órgãos competentes) e sua engorda envolve tecnologia simples, mínimo de capital, e é apropriado como uma atividade alternativa de renda para pescadores.(AU)
The purpose of this review is to sumarize the studies on spiny lobster cage farming in Vietnam. The review showed that spiny lobster juveniles can be held in communal culture systems, since they adapt well to the artificial feeding conditions. In aquaculture, the growout phase of wild-caught juvenile spiny lobsters (Palinuridae) to market size is an emerging sector in Vietnam. Spiny lobster farming in sea cages commenced in the 1990s in Vietnam. Traditionally, Panulirus ornatus lobster and other species are fed with bycatch and cheap fish. The main purpose of the growout phase can be the decrease in poverty, and in this respect lobster farming is a particularly attractive opportunity for Brazil, since the capture of post-hatching lobsters (with authorization of the competent organs) and their growout involves simple technology, minimal capital and is ideally suited as an alternative activity for income generation for fisherman.(AU)

The octopus Octopus cf. vulgaris is a potential species to diversify aquaculture. Due to absence of balanced commercial diet, growth of the O. cf. vulgaris is based on natural diet with local and low-cost inputs. In Brazil, studies on experimental octopus ongrowing are recent and there is little available data. We evaluated the performance, survival and food consumption of O. vulgaris fed on mussel Perna perna for 20 days. Six octopuses with initial weight of 415±12.73g (mean±standard deviation) were divided into two groups (n=3 octopuses/group) according to the diet: MC Group (frozen mussels) and MV Group (live mussels). The Weight Gain of octopuses was 273.33±94.52g and 340.00±26.46g; the Absolute Growth Rate was 13.67±4.73 and 17.00±1.32g.dia-1 and the Specific Growth Rate of 2.95±0.58 and 2.64±0.37%.day-1 to MC and MV groups, respectively. There was no significant difference in performance between groups and the survival rate was 100%. Octopuses well accepted both diets and despite the amount of frozen mussels (129±31) was higher than in live mussels (100±19), there was no significant difference regarding the consumption between groups. Our results demonstrate that the mussel Perna perna can be used frozen or live as monodiet in O. cf. vulgaris ongrowing.(AU)

Bovine feedlots are intensive production systems of significant importance in Mexico. The present study describes the presence of bovine virus diarrhea (BVD) causing subacute to chronic lesions in feedlot cattle, associated with other pathologies. Animals included in this study were discarded after they received therapy several times due to chronic pneumonia, or anaplamosis. Bovine virus diarrhea antigen was identified by immunohistochemistry in small intestine and myocardium in six cases of chronic suppurative bronchopneumonia with extensive areas of casseous necrotic bronchiectasis, previously diagnosed as Mycoplasma bovis pneumonias (retrospective group, n = 6). Furthermore, based on characteristic histopathologic lesions other nine cases were included (prospective group, n = 9). Bovine virus diarrhea antigen was recognized in two animals with pneumonic lesions, including a case with fibrinous bronchopneumonia as well as suggestive lesions of infectious bovine rinotracheitis (1/9), and another one with suppurative bronchopneumonia and myocarditis suggestive of Histophilus somni (1/9). In addition, one positive case was associated to anaplasmosis (1/9). Other two positive cases showed a conspicuous fibrinous peritonitis (2/9). The rest of the animals in this group resulted negative (4/9). Histopathological characteristics of the lesions and their association with the antigen in situ confirm the presence of BVD. This presentation is compatible with the acute infection syndrome. This is the first report of BVD infection and concomitant pathologies in feedlot cattle in Mexico.
El ganado en corral de engorda es un sistema de producción intensivo de gran importancia en México. En este trabajo se describe la infección por diarrea viral bovina (DVB), ocasionado por lesiones subagudas y crónicas en bovinos en corral de engorda, y su asociación con otras patologías. Los animales de este estudio fueron considerados de rechazo después de ser tratados en diferentes ocasiones por enfermedad respiratoria, o bien anaplasmosis. El antígeno de DVB fue identificado por inmunohistoquímica (IHQ) en intestino delgado y miocardio en seis casos de bronconeumonía supurativa crónica con extensas áreas de bronquiectasia con necrosis caseosa, los cuales habían sido previamente diagnosticados como neumonías por Mycoplasma bovis (grupo retrospectivo, n = 6). Además, se incluyeron otros nueve casos con base en las características histopatológicas de las lesiones (grupo prospectivo, n = 9). El antígeno de DVB se reconoció en dos animales con lesiones neumónicas, uno de ellos con bronconeumonía fibrinosa, incluyendo además lesiones probables de rinotraqueítis infecciosa bovina (1/9), y el otro con bronconeumonía supurativa y también miocarditis probable por Histophilus somni (1/9). Adicionalmente, un caso positivo estuvo asociado a anaplasmosis (1/9). Otros dos casos positivos presentaron una distintiva peritonitis fibrinosa (2/9). El resto de los animales de este grupo resultaron negativos a DVB (4/9). Las características histopatológicas de las lesiones y su asociación con el antígeno in situ, confirman la presencia de DVB. Esta presentación es compatible con el síndrome denominado infección aguda. Este es el primer informe de infección por DVB y otras patologías concomitantes en ganado de engorda en México.
RESUMEN
In order to evaluate performance of broiler chickens, two experiments with Ross 308 broiler chicks from 1 to 49 days of age were conducted. In both experiments six treatments and three replicates with 30 birds each, with factorial arrangement 2 x 3 were evaluated; diets with and without reduction of 2 percentile units of crude protein was one factor and the other factor was three-phase feeding programs: two phases (0-21 and 22-49 days of age), three phases (0-21, 22-42 and 43-49 days of age) and four phases (0-7, 8-21, 22-35 and 36-49 days of age). In Experiment 1, sorghum + soybean meal diets were used, and in Experiment 2, sorghum + soybean + meat meal + corn yellow gluten meal were used. In both experiments, the diets included the synthetic amino acids; in Experiment 1, lysine, methionine and threonine were administered, and in Experiment 2, lysine, methionine, tryptophan, threonine and arginine. In Experiment 1, results indicated that growth was similar (P > 0.05) between diets and feeding phases. The results of feed conversion were better in the four-phase program (P < 0.05). Carcass, breast and leg with thigh yields, as well as carcass protein and fat did not show differences (P > 0.05) between factors or interaction effect. In Experiment 2, the results on weight gain, feed conversion, carcass, breast, leg with thigh and total fat yields were similar (P > 0.05) between factors. These results indicated that broilers fed diets with and without reduction of two percentile units of crude protein in 2, 3, and 4-phase feeding obtained similar performance. The formulation of protein reduced diets, supplemented with synthetic amino acids in each phase, were efficient for performance and carcass yield.
Para evaluar el comportamiento productivo de los pollos de engorda se realizaron dos experimentos con pollos Ross 308 de 1-49 días de edad. En ambos se evaluaron 6 tratamientos con 3 réplicas de 30 aves cada una, en un arreglo factorial 2 x 3; un factor dietas con y sin reducción, de 2 unidades porcentuales de proteína y el otro, tres programas de alimentación; dos fases (0-21 y 22-49 días de edad), tres fases (0-21, 22-42 y 43-49 días de edad) y cuatro fases (0-7, 8-21, 22-35 y 36-49 días de edad). En el Experimento 1 se emplearon dietas sorgo-soya y en el Experimento 2, sorgo + soya + harina de carne + gluten de maíz. Las dietas fueron adicionadas con los aminoácidos lisina, metionina y treonina en el Experimento 1, y los anteriores más triptófano y arginina en el Experimento 2. Los resultados del Experimento 1 indicaron que el crecimiento fue similar (P > 0.05) para dietas y fases de alimentación. La conversión resultó ser mejor en el programa de 4 fases (P < 0.05). Los rendimientos de la canal, pechuga y pierna con muslo; así como la proteína y grasa en la canal, no mostraron diferencias (P > 0.05) entre factores ni efecto de interacción. En el Experimento 2, los resultados de ganancia de peso, conversión, rendimientos de canal, pechuga y pierna con muslo y grasa total, fueron similares (P > 0.05) para dietas y fases de alimentación. Se concluye que los pollos alimentados bajo 2, 3 y 4 fases de alimentación tuvieron comportamientos similares. La formulación de dietas reducidas en proteína mediante el uso de aminoácidos sintéticos en cada fase, resultó ser eficiente en las variables productivas y rendimiento de la canal.
RESUMEN
Bovine feedlots are intensive production systems of significant importance in México, United States of America and Canadá. Respiratory diseases are the single most important cause of morbidity and mortality in feedlot cattle. Herein, the gross and microscopic findings in the lungs of cattle with unusually persistent pneumonia unresponsive to aggressive antibiotic treatment in feedlots localized in General Escobedo, Nuevo Leon; Morelia, Michoacan; Mexicali, Baja California, and Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico are described. Eight chronic suppurative bronchopneumonia cases with multifocal areas of casseous necrosis were selected. Microscopically, these lesions were bronchocentric and characterized by foci of necrosis surrounded by a pyogranulomatous reaction. Immunohistochemical studies revealed positive reaction to Mycoplasma bovis in all cases. Gross and microscopic lesions associated with M. bovis pneumonia have a conspicuous pattern. This is the first report of M. bovis causing pneumonia in feedlot cattle in Mexico.
El corral de engorda es un sistema de producción intensivo de gran importancia en la ganadería de carne en México, Canadá y Estados Unidos de América. Estudios epidemiológicos indican que las enfermedades respiratorias de los bovinos son el principal problema en corrales de engorda. En este trabajo se describen las lesiones macroscópicas y microscópicas en pulmones de ganado de carne con severa neumonía crónica, a pesar de haber recibido tratamiento con antibióticos en más de tres ocasiones. Se realizaron estudios post mortem de ganado en corrales de engorda localizados en General Escobedo, Nuevo León; Morelia, Michoacán; Mexicali, Baja California y Culiacán, Sinaloa, todos en México. Se seleccionaron ocho casos crónicos de bronconeumonía supurativa con múltiples focos nodulares de exudado necrótico-caseoso. Estos focos necróticos estaban microscópicamente centrados en bronquios y bronquiolos y sus bordes estaban claramente limitados por una reacción piogranulomatosa. Los estudios de inmunohistoquímica demostraron positividad a Mycoplasma bovis en todos los casos. Las lesiones neumónicas macro y microscópicas asociadas con M. bovis tienen un patrón conspicuo. Este es el primer informe de M. bovis en neumonías en ganado de corral de engorda en México.
RESUMEN
A research study was conducted to evaluate the effect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell walls (ScCw) at 500 g/t and avilamycin as a growth promoter antibiotic(GPA), at 10 ppm, in sorghum + soybean meal diets for broiler chicks, on live production performance at 21 days of age, as well as on length, width, number and area of intestinal villi at 10 and 21 days. A total of 200 one-day-old broiler chicks were allocated in batteries and distributed in a completely randomized design, consisting of a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement with five repetitions of 10 birds each one. The factors were the presence and absence of ScCw and GPA for the productive variables. The intestinal villi data were analyzed as a completely randomized design with repeated measurements at ten or 21 days of age. Results of productive variables showed differences (P < 0.05) in body weight (660 vs 683 g) and feed conversion (1.47 vs 1.41 g/g), in favor of birds that consumed the diet with GPA. The addition of ScCw improved (P < 0.05) body weight (662 vs 681 g). The greater the age of birds (21 vs 10 days), the greater (P < 0.05) the width (264 vs 398 µ), number (41.7 vs 45.2 n) and area (26.2 vs 44.5 10³ µ,²) of intestinal villi; the effect of ScCw was manifested at 21 days with a larger area of villi. This partly explains the beneficial effect of these natural products on broiler production.
Se desarrolló un trabajo de investigación con el objetivo de evaluar paredes celulares del Saccharomyces cerevisiae (PcSc) a 500 g/t y avilamicina como antibiótico promotor de crecimiento (APC) a 10 ppm, en dietas sorgo + soya para pollo de engorda, sobre las variables productivas a los 21 días de edad, así como la longitud, ancho, número y área de las vellosidades intestinales a los diez y 21 días. Se utilizaron 200 pollitos de un día de edad, alojados en baterías y distribuidos mediante un diseño completamente al azar, con arreglo factorial 2 x 2 con cinco repeticiones de diez aves cada uno; los factores fueron: presencia y ausencia de PcSc y APC para las variables productivas. Los datos de las vellosidades intestinales se analizaron mediante un diseño completamente al azar con mediciones repetidas a los diez y 21 días de edad. Los resultados de las variables productivas mostraron diferencias (P < 0.05) en peso corporal (660 vs 683 g) y conversión alimenticia (1.47 vs 1.41 g/g), en favor de las aves que consumieron la dieta con APC; las PcSc también mostraron efectos (P < 0.05) favorables en el peso corporal (662 vs 681 g). La mayor edad de las aves (21 vs 10 días) fue determinante para demostrar (P < 0.05) un aumento en la amplitud (264 vs 398 µ, número (41.7 vs 45.2 n) y área de las vellosidades (26.2 vs 44.5 10³ µ,²); el efecto de las PcSc se manifestó a los 21 días en mayor área de vellosidades, ello explica, en parte, el efecto benéfico que poseen estos productos naturales en la producción del pollo de engorda.
RESUMEN
The objective of this study was to determine Salmonella enteritidis phage type 13a (SE PT 13a) and Salmonella enteritidis biovar Issatschenko phage type 6a (SI) pathogenesis in 4 days old broiler chickens. Twenty-eight birds per treatment were inoculated with a dose of 1x10(8) (SE PT 13a) and 1x10(9) (SI), respectively, and fourteen chickens were inoculated with physiological saline solution (PSS) as negative controls. Samples from liver, spleen, heart, lung, crop, duodenum, jejunum, ileum and blind guts were taken during fourteen different times postinfection (6, 18, 30, 42, 54, 78, 102, 126, 150, 174, 198, 222, 246 and 270 hours postinfection (hpi) in order to obtain Salmonella spp isolation for bacteriological, histopathological and ultrastructural examination. During the first week, some depressed birds were observed, and the second week birds were found with yolk sac retention in both treatments. SE PT 13a was isolated at 18, 30, 42, 54, 78, 102, 126, 150, 174, 198, 246 and 270 hpi from all organs previously described. SI was isolated at 42, 150, 174 and 222 hpi, from crop, jejunum, ileum and blind gut samples. Ileum was the main organ where more frequently SE PT 13a and SI were isolated. There was no mortality in either treatments. Histopathology revealed inflammation, coagulative necrosis, congestion and hemorrhages in gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and visceral organs since 6 hpi in both treatments, with lesions from mild to severe. Ultrastructurally changes in enterocytes' cytoplasm: degeneration, necrosis, invasion and penetration of SE PT 13a and SI were observed. Results of this research showed the ability of SE PT 13a as well as SI to penetrate and invade enterocytes in experimentally infected broiler chicken, demonstrating that SI is able to infect broiler chickens and not only Muridae family.
El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar la patogenia de Salmonella enteritidis fagotipo 13a (SE FT 13a) y de Salmonella enteritidis biovar Issatschenko fagotipo 6a (SI) en pollitos de engorda de cuatro días de edad. Veintiocho aves por tratamiento fueron inoculadas con dosis de 1 x 10(8) (SE FT 13a) y 1 x 10(9) (SI), respectivamente, y 14 pollitos fueron inoculados con solución salina fisiológica (SSF), como testigos negativos. Se tomaron muestras de hígado, bazo, corazón, pulmón, buche, duodeno, yeyuno, íleon y ciegos durante 14 tiempos posinfección (6, 18, 30, 42, 54, 78, 102, 126, 150, 174, 198, 222, 246 y 270 horas posinfección (hpi)), para realizar el aislamiento bacteriológico de Salmonella spp, exámenes histopatológico y ultraestructural. Durante la primera semana, se observó que algunas aves estaban deprimidas, y en la segunda semana se encontraron aves con retención de saco vitelino en ambos tratamientos. Se aisló SE FT 13a a partir de las 18, 30, 42, 54, 78, 102, 126, 150, 174, 198, 246 y 270 hpi, en todos los órganos previamente descritos. SI fue aislada a las 42, 150, 174 y 222 hpi de muestras de buche, yeyuno, íleon y ciegos. El íleon fue el órgano de donde se aisló SE FT 13a y SI con mayor frecuencia. No se registró mortalidad en ningún tratamiento. El examen histopatológico reveló inflamación, necrosis coagulativa, congestión y hemorragias en tracto gastrointestinal (TGI) y órganos viscerales a partir de las 6 hpi en ambos tratamientos, con grados de lesión de leve a severo. Ultraestructuralmente se observaron cambios en el citoplasma celular de enterocitos: degeneración, necrosis, invasión y penetración de SE FT 13a y SI. Los resultados de la presente investigación evidenciaron la capacidad de SE FT 13a y SI para penetrar e invadir enterocitos de los pollitos infectados experimentalmente, demostrando que SI es capaz de infectar pollos de engorda y no sólo a la familia Muridae.
