The objective of this experiment was to compare fat and cholesterol content, and fatty acids (FA) profile in Longissimus dorsi muscle of castrated and young bulls from Nellore (NE) and ½ Nellore x Sindi (NS) cattle and Mediterranean buffaloes. Eight animals (four castrated and four young bulls) per genetic group was used, with a total of 24 animals. A completely randomized experimental design in a 3 x 2 factorial arrangement (three genetic groups and two sexual conditions) was used. Animals […]

It was slaughtered 24 animals confined, being 8 (4 castrated and 4 entire) from each genetic group (Nelore, ½ Nelore x Sindi cattle and e Mediterrâneos buffaloes), with 430 kg mean weight, in order to compare carcass and slaughter yield. Data obtained were analyzed statistically in a factorial scheme 3 x 2 (3 genetic groups x 2 sexual conditions) with 4 repetitions. Nelore and ½ Nelore x Sindi cattle presented smaller percentage of foot (2.13, 2.08 vs 2,31%), head (3.99, […]
