Nopal cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) represents an alternative for cattle feed during the drought season in drier regions of Mexico. Previously, we have shown that with addition nopal reduced aerobic mesophiles (AM) and coliform (C) counts milk. In order to determine whether additive has some direct effect on microbiological quality milk, mucilage (NM), epidermis (NE) ground (GN) were added 84 samples raw milk at concentrations 0.5, 1.0 2.0% each fraction. After 2 h exposure, 100 ml aliquots...

El efecto de la adición nopal (Opuntia ficus-indica) en dieta cerdos 20-100 kg peso vivo (PV) sobre glucosa sanguínea (GS), colesterol total (CT), lipoproteínas alta (LAD) y baja densidad (LBD) triglicéridos (TG) su relación con el consumo alimento crecimiento (kg) fue determinado. Veinte (PV 22.4 ± 0.9 kg) fueron distribuidos dos grupos (G): G1 (testigo) G2 (experimental). Ambos recibieron una base® (DB) ad libitum, pero del suplementada (1 % PV cerdo∙semana-1). Se evaluó GS, CT, LAD, LBD,...
Meat yield and growth was evaluated in crossbred F1 chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus) (Full Plumage Naked Neck × Rhode Island Red) backyard production systems under dry tropic conditions. Seventeen naked neck (MCD) seventeen full plumage males (MPN) were used at the locality of San Nicolás Arroyo Hondo, Municipality Huetamo, Michoacan, Mexico, fed with a traditional scheme (commercial concentrate plus corn). The variables analyzed body weight (PC); food consumption (CA); feed conversion...
The objective was to evaluate and schematically characterize the physicochemical changes of nopal (Opuntia ficus-indica) due steam cooking at different times. Cladodes were cut into pieces (25 x 30 15 mm) mixed obtain four samples 1250 g each on a fresh basis randomly assigned treatment: T1 or Control; T2, for 4 min; T3, 7 T4, 10 min. After cooking, dehydrated, then proximal chemical analysis performed. data analyzed through fixed-effect model, differences between treatments obtained by...
