Nutritional Characteristics of Lambs Meat Fed Diets with Cotton Cake

Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional quality of meat of lambs fed with cake originating from cotton production of biodiesel. Forty noncastrated lambs, crossbred Dorper versus Santa Inês from 20.9 to 36.7 kg of body weight finished in feedlot of 99 days and fed diets containing levels of cotton cake (0, 33, 66 and 100%) replacing soybean meal. The chemical composition and physicochemical characteristics were not influenced (P > 0.05) by the levels of cotton cake in the concentrate. Regarding the fatty a… Show more

“…The higher pH value of goat meat is probably related to species rather than diet, considering that the pH of goat meat is higher (Shija et al, 2013). The average meat pH value (6.55) recorded in this study was close to the 6.55 observed by Shija et al (2013) and to the 6.53 reported by Pophiwa et al (2017) in goat meat immediately after slaughter. Those authors also observed a decline curve of natural pH until its stabilization, between 5.4 and 5.8, which is considered normal for this species (Puolanne, 2017).…”

“…The meat pH values were close to the 6.70 and 5.60 found by Campos et al [36] and the 6.45 and 5.70 reported by Cirne et al [37], at 0 and 24 h after slaughter, respectively. Thus, the pH results of the present study indicate that there possibly was a typical development of rigor mortis and the inexistence of pre-slaughter stress [38][39][40], suggesting the absence of alterations in meat quality [41].…”

“…Values from 14.7 to 23.8 g/kg in the lipid concentration of longissimus lumborum are considered normal for a slaughter between 15 and 45 kg. In addition, the amount of lipids in the muscle can be increased by the inclusion of oilseed cakes in the lambs’ diet [ 39 , 41 , 42 ]. The change in lipid concentration in the meat of the animals may reflect differences in the FA composition of the meat.…”

“…The inclusion of licuri cake in the diet of lambs increased specific SFAs (C12:0, C14:0, C17:0, and C20:0) and were promoted by a high proportion of ΣSFA in the licuri cake in comparison to other feed ingredients. The lipid content of the meat can alter its lipid profile [ 6 , 8 , 41 ]. This occurs due to differences in the ratio of phospholipids, which are polar fats, to triacylglycerols, which are neutral storage fats [ 43 , 44 ].…”
