RESUMO
The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of diets supplemented with shrimp-head silage on the incorporation of n-3 in the Nile tilapia fillets. EPA (eicosapentaenoic), DHA (docosahexanoic) and total lipids were determined by chromatography in feeds and the muscles of tilapia specimens were submitted to diets supplemented with a varying degree of silage (0, 4, 8, 12, 16%). The total lipid content ranged from 6.70 to 10.30% in the diets and from 0.79 to 1.37% in the tilapia fillets. In diet with high concentration of silage, it was observed an increase in the level of omega-3 (r=0.92). There was an incorporation of 0.59% (1.34mg 100g-1) and 9.5% (40.50mg 100g-1) of EPA and DHA, respectively, when the addition of silage to the diet was 16%. The results implication states that the inclusion of 16% of the shrimp head silage in the diet for tilapias increases the levels of incorporation of EPA and DHA in the filet.
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a incorporação de ômega-3 EPA (eicosapentaenóico) e DHA (docosahexanóico) no tecido muscular de tilápias do Nilo alimentadas com dietas suplementadas com diferentes níveis de silagem de cabeça de camarão Litopenaeus vannamei (0, 4, 8, 12, 16%). Foram analisados os teores de EPA, DHA e lipídios totais das dietas e dos tecidos musculares das tilápias. Os teores de lipídios totais variaram entre 6,70 a 10,30% nas dietas e 0,79 a 1,37% no tecido muscular. Através da análise de regressão, houve um aumento nos teores de ômega-3 (r=0,92) com a inclusão da silagem na dieta. Foi observada incorporação de 0,59% (1,34mg 100g-1) e 9,5% (40,50mg 100g-1) de EPA e DHA, respectivamente, no tratamento com 16% de silagem na dieta. A inclusão de 16% da silagem ácida de cabeça de camarão na dieta das tilápias aumentou significativamente os níveis de incorporação de EPA e DHA no filé.
