Quality and sensory attributes of meat from 32 mixed-breed Santa Inês lambs fed diets composed four silages with old man saltbush (Atriplex nummularia Lind), buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris), Gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium), Pornunça (Manihot sp.) were evaluated. Meat diet containing silage (P<0.05) showed greater values for cooking loss. Of the evaluated in Longissimus lumborum muscle lambs, color juiciness did not differ (P>0.05). However, led to differences aroma, tenderness, flavor values....

Summary Biodiesel industry by-products appear to be an excellent alternative source for ruminant feed and may contribute increased agricultural activity in terms of productivity profitability. Among the various by­products, oilseed cakes have great potential use due their high protein lipid contents, which make them energetic that would fulfill nutritional requirements animals. Thus, studies aim determine optimum levels cake are important maximizing these by-products. Key Words: cattle,...
