Abstract

This research aim to study the effect of organic and inorganic copper and sulfur sources in the interaction copper-sulfur-molybdenum. For that will be used 40 sheep weaned at about 2 months and estimated weight of 20 kg distributed in 10 treatments, as follows: 1) basal diet; 2) diet containing molybdenum; 3) basal diet + copper inorganic + sulfur inorganic; 4) basal diet + + copper inorganic + sulfur organic; 5) basal diet + copper organic + sulfur, inorganic; 6) basal diet + copper organic + sulfur organic; 7) diet with molybdenum + copper inorganic + sulfur inorganic; 8) diet with molybdenum + copper inorganic + organic sulfur; 9) diet with molybdenum + copper organic + sulfur inorganic, 10) diet with molybdenum + organic copper + organic sulfur. The experiment will last 84 days with weights and blood collections every 28 days to study minerals, metabolic balance and bioavailability. Statistical analysis: The parameters will be analyzed considering the existence of a factorial treatment structure 2 x 2 x 2 (with and without molybdenum, copper organic and inorganic and sulfur organic and inorganic) and a basal diet and a basal diet plus molybdenum (AU)
