The purpose of this trial is evaluate effects of sexual condition (intact or castrated males) on dry matter intake, performance, carcass traits, meat quality, gene expression, mineral and proteomic profile in longissimus muscle of F1 Angus-Nellore cattle finished in feedlot. Six hundred and forty animals will be fed during 180 days. Longissimus thoracis samples will be collected between t…

Given the importance of increasing the degree of marbling of the meat to meet the quality standard for the consumer and add value to the product, there is the possibility of using the restriction of vitamin A in the diet as a tool in the modulation of fat deposition in the carcass of animals. However, the mechanisms involved in the positive interaction between vitamin A restriction and th…
The importance of increasing the intramuscular fat content of the meat to meet the quality standard and add value to the product, there is the possibility of using the restriction of vitamin A in the diet as a tool in the modulation of fat deposition in the animal carcass. However, the mechanisms involved in the positive interaction between dietary vitamin A restriction and the degree of …
Different strategies have been used to increase the deposition of intramuscular fat in beef in order to improve the quality of the final product and, thus, serve more demanding markets. One of these strategies is supplementation through creep feeding. Additionally, research has shown the benefits of supplementation (via intramuscular injection) with vitamin A at birth in F1 Bos taurus x B…
Consumer preferences at the time of meat purchasing are related to health, food safety, and product quality. Tenderness and marbling have been known as the main meat quality traits responsible for consumer preference. In beef cattle production systems, the castration of animals can provide uniformity and improve the carcass quality, as well as management of the animals. Thus, this study a…

For animals in the finishing phase, the level of roughage in the diet has an inverse relationship with the energy density of the diet. In this context, the use of exogenous enzymes (amylases and fibrolytic) acts as a strategy to increase the availability of energy and nutrients in the diet. Becoming of interest to understand the activity of glucoamylase enzymes that act in the direct rele…
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the effect of Vitamin A supplementation during the weaning phase end restriction during the finishing phase on fatty acid profile in beef from F1 Angus-Nellore cattle. Researches have demonstrated a positive effect of Vitamin A supplementation on adipocyte hyperplasia in skeletal muscle. . This nutrient can cause changes in fatty acid profile in …
The objective of this trial is evaluate the effects of stress on performance and gastrointestinal barrier function in beef cattle. Animals used in this trial will be fed during 56 days and will receive a high energy diet. Over the period in feedlot will be collected daily data of dry matter intake, average daily gain, and feed efficiency, and animal will be weighed every two weeks. The ga…
