The stable isotope ratios ( 13 C/ 12 C, 15 Recently, several papers have been published about the application of stable isotope ratio analysis (SIRA) using isotopic ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) to animal products. The aims of these studies were to obtain dietary reconstruction, to study animal movement patterns, 1-5 and to characterise the geographical origin. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Another important aim could be to study and quantify the alteration of stable isotope ratios (SIRs) in milk by substituting a C 3 plant diet with maize. This could be important in order to protect milk and milk derivatives produced using traditional or 'organic' practices of pasture compared with products produced with cheaper diets based on maize derivatives. There have been recent reports about this in defatted meat, [17][18][19] in related fat, 17 in several animal tissues such as blood, plasma, liver, kidney, cow hair 20 and in sheep faeces. 21 In these papers it was shown that there is a strong correlation between the SIR of carbon and the amount of maize in the diet. It was also shown that the degree of this alteration depends on the component or body tissue considered, due to its biochemical composition and turnover rate. 22 On the other hand, variations in the SIRs in milk and milk derivatives following suitable experimental design have not been so extensively explored. Metges et al. 23 investigated the 13 C/ 12 C of CO 2 breath, bulk milk and serum by exchanging a C 3 plant with a C 4 plant diet, and vice versa. Wilson et al. 24 studied the contribution of body protein to milk protein, changing abruptly from a C 3 to a C 4 diet. More recently, Knobbe et al. 25 followed the variation in stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic composition under different feeding regimes. It was concluded that, to obtain more detailed information on the influencing factors, the analysis of the SIRs of other elements such as oxygen and hydrogen may be necessary.In this study we considered around 130 cows stabled in two farms and supplied with diets made up of different kinds of C 3 plants and different amounts of maize. The different feed ingredients, the overall diet and the relevant milk (casein, lipid and some bulk samples) were subjected to analysis of 13

“…The Center of Environmental Stable Isotopes of UNESP, Botucatu campus, using a calculation methodology based on the equation system of two sources and two isotopes (Ducatti, 2004), has developed research studies aiming at detecting in the final product if animal byproducts were included in poultry diets. Carrijo et al (2006) traced in the breast muscle the inclusion of meat and bone meal in broiler diets. analyzed the breast muscle, keel, and tibia of broilers to identify which of these tissues would be better to trace poultry offal meal inclusion in broiler diets.…”

The aim of this study was to trace the inclusion of animal meals in layer diets by analyzing eggs and their fractions (yolk and albumen) using the technique of carbon and nitrogen isotopes. Two-hundred and eighty-eight (288) 73-week-old Shaver White layers, never fed animal ingredients, were randomly distributed in six treatments with six replicates each. The treatments were: control -corn and soybean meal based diet and five other experimental diets including bovine meat and bone meal (MBM); poultry offal meal (POM); feather meal (FM); feather meal and poultry offal meal (OFM), and poultry offal meal, feather meal, and meat and bone meal (MBOFM). The isotopic results were submitted to multivariate analysis of variance. Ellipses were determined through an error matrix (95% confidence) to identify differences between treatments and the control group. In the albumen and yolk of all experimental treatments were significantly different from the control diet (p < 0.05). In summary, the stable isotope technique is able to trace the animal meals included in layer feeds in the final product under these experimental conditions.

“…Thus, trust regions in the graphs shown spread farther apart along the carbon axis than along the nitrogen axis. That probably reflects carbon and nitrogen isotopic differences between vegetable and VM diets, of which the latter is 2.27‰ richer in  13 C and 1.05‰ in  15 N. Carrijo et al (2006) showed that the diet with 8% of meat and bone meal was 1.17‰ richer for  13 C and 1.20‰ for  15 N on average when compared to the respective vegetable diet. Compared to P. major, keel and tibia showed more suitable to detect VM feeding in broilers by stable isotopes technique when a vegetable diet was replaced by a diet with VM inclusion in some phase of the breeding period or vice versa, as it evidences the differences in treatments compared with the control group.…”

“…According to Carrijo et al (2006), the technique of carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes can be used as a tool to trace the inclusion of animal origin by-products in broiler diets by analyzing the isotopic ratio of the pectoral muscle (Pectoralis major). Moreover, the author suggests that the improvement of this technique can enable the certification according to which broilers for the external market were fed exclusively vegetable origin ingredients.…”

The inclusion of poultry viscera meal (VM) in broiler diets to possibly replace it with strictly vegetable diet (VE) and vice-versa, using the technique of carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes in different tissues was traced. One hundred ninety-two one-day-old chicks that had been distributed randomly were used in twelve experimental treatments with four replications of four chicks each. The treatments consisted of vegetable diet (VG) for diets containing FV going after a certain age or the reverse, in which the birds began feeding VM on diet and then switched to VE diet. At 42 days of age, samples of pectoral muscle (Pectoralis major), keel and tibia were collected, with later determination of isotopic ratios ( 13 C/ 12 C and 15 N/ 14 N). The stable isotopes technique couldn't trace the use of VM in feeding broilers when this ingredient was part of broiler diets only in the first seven, 14 or 21 days of age. However, this technique can be applied to younger poultry that have been sampled before a possible change in diet, since they can have the isotopic signature of feeding stabilized around two weeks of age.Keywords: broiler, poultry viscera meal, stable isotopes, carbon-13, nitrogen-15 de aves, isótopos estáveis, carbono-13, nitrogênio-15 RESUMO Rastrearam-se a inclusão de farinha de vísceras de aves (FV) em dietas de frangos por ocasião de eventual substituição de dieta contendo FV por dieta estritamente vegetal, e vice-versa, por isótopos estáveis de
