<b>Glycerin levels in the diets for crossbred bulls finished in feed-lot: ingestive behavior, feeding and rumination efficiency</b> - doi: 10.4025/actascianimsci.v35i4.19090

Abstract: ABSTRACT. This work was carried out to study corn substituting by glycerin levels on animal behavior, feeding and rumination efficiency of Purunã young bulls finished in feed-lot. It was utilized 40 bulls Purunã breed with 208.8 ± 33.3 kg and eight months old. The diets were: without glycerin -G00, 6% of glycerin -G06, 12% of glycerin -G12 and 18% of glycerin -G18. Dry matter intake was similar among diets. On the other hand, NDF intake decreased linearly with glycerin levels supplementation in the diets. Feed… Show more

“…Recent increase in biodiesel production provided a rise in available quantities of glycerine generated from the transesterification of vegetable oils (Crandall, 2004). Glycerine could thus be included in ruminant diets as an energetic feed ingredient and substituted for other ingredients such as cereals (Eiras et al, 2013(Eiras et al, , 2014Françozo et al, 2013). In fact, glycerine may be converted into glucose in the liver of cattle and may provide energy for cellular metabolism (Freetly and Ferrell, 2000;Krehbiel, 2008).…”

“…O uso da glicerina na alimentação animal vem sendo cogitado em virtude da disponibilidade desse coproduto e da possibilidade de seu emprego na alimentação animal como ingrediente que corrobora bons índices de desempenho e baixo custo (Cruz et al, 2014;Eiras et al, 2014;Eiras et al, 2013;Françozo et al, 2013). De acordo com Beserra et al ( 2016) muitas pesquisas têm sido realizadas para verificar o real efeito da inclusão da glicerina na alimentação animal, e sua utilização têm apresentados resultados que demonstraram que a glicerina se apresenta como uma opção de ingrediente para a substituição do milho e outros grãos (fornecimento de energia) na dieta de coelhos, suínos, aves e ruminantes, tornando esse processo de produção mais atrativo e com menor custo de produção.…”
