Chromium is an essential trace element for glucose metabolism and there are indications that it increases muscle deposition and alters the metabolism of lipids and proteins. Its use has been investigated as a nutritional supplement in animal production, due to its ability to amplify intracellular insulin signaling and increase the efficiency of energy distribution in the body, mitigating …
Chromium is a mineral that has been studied as a nutritional supplement in animal production. Its ability to amplify intracellular insulin signaling increases the efficiency of energy distribution in the body, and it may have an antioxidant action, especially in phases of high nutritional demand and situations of metabolic stress, such as late pregnancy. The aim of the project is to evalu…
The negative energy balance at the end of pregnancy and the beginning of lactation is caused by the high energy demand in these phases, causing mobilization of lipid reserves, metabolic stress and, in critical cases, metabolic diseases. Chromium has been studied as a supplement to enhance the use of glucose, among other functions. This mechanism occurs by increasing cellular sensitivity t…
Energy influences the reproduction of sheep, but little is known how levels and different sources can affect this characteristic. There is evidence that maternal nutrition can affect the future production and reproduction of offspring. The objective of the project is to evaluate different levels of energy in the diet (below the requirement at the level and above) according to the recommen…
The provision of lipids in the diet of sheep finishing can improve growth performance and carcass quality and meat. Vegetable oils have a higher amount of beneficial fatty acids to human health and to supply the animal can increase their content in the flesh. But excess offering can bring metabolic disorders the animal. The biosurfactant aims to reduce the negative effect of the provision…
