<h3>Background</h3> Increased titres of serum IgM antibodies to GM1 ganglioside are often associated with multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN). Testing for other antigens including GM2, the mixture and galactocerebroside (GM1/GalC) disulfated heparin disaccharide NS6S were reported increase sensitivity antibody testing in MMN even if it is unclear whether specificity positive (PPV) or negative predictive value (NPV) also affected. <h3>Methods</h3> We measured GM1, galactocerebroside, GM1/GalC...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance and nutrient digestibility feedlot Santa Inês sheep fed with increasing levels (0, 25, 50, 75, 100% dry matter basis) cactus pear (Opuntia ficus indica, Mill) as a replacement for corn. Forty-five male (non-castrated) sheep, averaging 27.50 ± 0.48 kg body weight (BW) at beginning study, were used in trial. A completely randomized block design nine replicates per treatment used. intakes DM, OM, CP, EE, TC, NFC, TDN ME quadratic,...
The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects adding meat from waste animals on physicochemical and sensory characteristics goat buchada. Four treatments were prepared: one control (no added) three with 15, 30, 50% viscera replaced by goats. Eight buchadas, each weighing approximately 70 g, used for analysis. variables ashes, lipids, proteins showed significant differences (p < 0.05) depending addition factors storage time had a effect 2‐thiobarbituric acid reactive (TBAR) values,...
To assess the influence of genotype and diets with different energy levels on lipid profile sheep meat, 54 lambs were used (18 animals from each genotype: Morada Nova, Santa Inez ½Dorper + ½Santa crossbred), distributed in a completely randomized experimental design 3 × 2 factorial arragement (three genotypes two diets). The submitted to diets, 2.5 Mcal ME/kg DM 3.0 DM, receiving feed water reach desired average live weight 30 kg, when they slaughtered. Total lipids, cholesterol,...
This study investigated the effect of season on endocrine and adaptive profiles a Brazilian Creole goat population in semi-arid region Brazil during dry rainy season. We considered physiological, morphological, biochemical, haematological, hormonal anatomical profiles. The experiment used 80 adult goats (2- to 5-year-old) lactating (160 ± 14 days lactation length) goats, with an average daily milk yield 500.9 13 g. Physiological parameters (rectal temperature, RT; respiratory rate, RR; heart...
The aim of this study was to characterize the adaptive profile and identify variables with great discriminatory power Brazilian Azul goat population Italian Garfagnina population, through use principal component canonical discriminant analysis. A total 110 milking females (60 in winter 50 summer) 80 (40 40 were considered. Air temperature (°C), black globe (BGT) relative humidity (%) measured aid an automatic weather station. Some physiological parameters (rectal – RT, respiratory rate RR,...
O leite de cabra é considerado um dos alimentos mais completos por apresentar vários elementos importantes para a nutrição humana, constituído proteínas alto valor biológico e ácidos graxos essenciais, além seu conteúdo mineral vitamínico. Esta revisão tem como objetivo avaliar as variações referentes à composição química propriedades físicoquímicas do leite, que ocorrem em função alguns fatores, tais como: climáticos, raça, indivíduo, estágio lactação alimentação. manejo alimentar sido...
Sialic acid, which is strategically linked to the surface of glycoproteins, glycolipids and free oligosaccharides, involved in cellular interaction communication processes. These processes are related main biological functions sialic include immune system activation, brain development protection against pathogens. The present study identified quantified classes acid (Neu5Ac Neu5Gc) goat milk during lactation. Forty-eight samples from twelve Saanen goats four lactation stages were evaluated....
Este trabalho foi realizado com os objetivos de avaliar efeitos da alimentação e do genótipo sobre as características quantitativas carcaça cordeiros terminados em confinamento estimar sua margem bruta. Foram utilizados 18 cada genótipo: Morada Nova, Santa Inês mestiços Dorper × Inês. As rações foram constituídas 2,5 Mcal EM/kg MS 2,94 MS. Utilizou-se um delineamento inteiramente casualizado, esquema fatorial 3 2. dietas influenciaram o ganho peso diário, corpo vazio, escore corporal, a...
This study evaluated body fat, protein and energy contents nutritional requirements for weight (BW) gain of lambs in tropical semiarid conditions. Thirty-two castrated Santa Inês 3-to-4-month old (initial BW: 15.8 kg ± 1.4 kg) were used. Eight initially slaughtered to serve as the reference initial composition. The remaining 24 animals placed a randomized block with three treatments eight replications. Each one experimental blocks consisted 15 which (daily supplement levels: 0.0, 1.0, 1.5%...
Objetivou-se avaliar os atributos sensoriais (dureza, odor, sabor, suculência e cor) físicos (força de cisalhamento, perda por cocção parâmetros cor L*, a*, b*), além do conteúdo ferro da carne cordeiros dos grupos Santa Inês (SI), Dorper × (DP SI) Sem Padrão Racial Definido (SRD) terminados em confinamento com dietas formuladas duas relações volumoso:concentrado (50:50 20:80). Foram utilizados 54 animais (18 cada genótipo, peso médio inicial 23 kg 150 dias idade) abatidos 36 vivo. As...
The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect including different levels tomato pomace (TP) on performance, blood biochemical parameters, hormones, production and composition milk, economic analysis Saanen goats reared in confinement. Sixteen multiparous (Saanen), 21 days were randomly distributed two Latin square 4 × (four periods four treatments), according inclusion dehydrated (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%) diet. This resulted differences intake dry organic matter, as well ether extract, crude...
Objetivou-se avaliar as características de carcaça por ultrassonografia em tempo real e após o abate a relação entre essas os rendimentos cordeiros diferentes genótipos terminados confinamento com diversos níveis energia na dieta. Foram utilizados 54 não-castrados - 18 Santa Inês puros (SI), ½Dorper x ½Santa (Dp SI) ½Sem Raça Definida (SI SRD) média 150 dias idade peso médio 22,60 kg no início do experimento.
