With the objective of evaluating physic-chemical and sensorial characteristics of meat from lambs finished in feedlot with diets containing sugar cane or corn silage at two roughage:concentrate ratios, 60:40 or 40:60, 32 non-castrated Ile de France lambs, with 15 kg body weight were used. Animals were confined in individual stalls and were slaughtered at 32 kg body weight. Studied diets and muscles did not affect pH at 45 minutes (6.56) and 24 hours (5.62) after slaughter, water holding capacity (58.38%) […]

Thirty six Nellore bulls, with 240 kg initial live weight (LW), were used and distributed in eight treatments, with four different concentrate levels in the diets (20; 40; 60 and 80%) and two crude protein (CP) levels (15 and 18%) with four reference bulls. After the slaughter, the carcass dressing percentage, the basic cuts percentages, the carcass length, the loin eye area, the subcutaneous fat thickness, and the carcass muscle, fat, bone, protein, ether extract, water percentages, the organs and […]
