(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-04-02) SIZO, Fabricia de Jesus Paiva da Fosenca; FERREIRA, Maria Auxiliadora Pantoja; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1832728101486131; ROCHA, Rossineide Martins da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4371300451793081
The objective of this study was to evaluate the digestive system of juvenile tambaqui fed with an experimental diet containing 28% crude protein and 3000 Kcal/kg, with an inclusion of 20% of the following ingredients: palm kernel cake, tucuma pie and coconut bran. We used 300 juveniles tambaqui (16.0± 1.5 g), distributed in 12 recirculating tanks (250L) with continuous filtration and aeration of water. The experiment design was randomized and conducted with three replicates of four treatments identified as basal diet- T1, palm kernel-T2, tucumã- T3 and coconut-T4. After feeding for 60 days portions of the mid intestine and live were fixed in bouin and processed for optic microscopy. Morphometric of intestinal villi showed that diets, T1 and T4 interfered in the epithelial microvilli height. Hepatocytes showed differences between the diets T3, T2 and T1. Hepatic changes were significant in the tucumã diet. Leading to the conclusion that a diet based on palm kernel is the most suitable to feed juveniles tambaqui.

Avaliação reprodutiva de touros bubalinos alimentados com subprodutos da agroindústria na Amazônia Oriental
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-10-19) SANTOS, Alessandra Ximenes; FATURI, Cristian; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8389692203753236; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2919433679918544; LOURENÇO JÚNIOR, José de Brito; GARCIA, Alexandre Rossetto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2678267039338224
The byproducts coconut meal (FC) and palm kernel cake (TAD) available in agribusiness in Eastern Amazonia can be used as alternative foods in the substitution of conventional concentrates. However, little information about their chemical composition and their relationship with productive and reproductive performance of the animals is available. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the feeds prepared with coconut meal and palm kernel cake over the semen quality of buffaloes. Also, the individual daily feed intake in the experimental diets and your relationship with the testosterone levels, scrotal circumference and semen quality were analyzed. The experiment was developed in the Animal Research Unit "Senador Álvaro Adolpho", in Embrapa Eastern Amazon, Belém-PA. Fifteen buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) bulls with age of 3.2 ± 1.8 years and weights of 578.6 ± 101.9 kg were used as semen donors. The animals were separated in three groups: the Control group, the FC-Base group (coconut meal-based) and the TADBase group (palm kernel cake-based). The supplementary feeding was available individually every day, according 1.0% of body weight (BW). Semen collections (n=173) were realized weekly, and they started 112 days after initiation of supplementary feeding, after two spermatogenic cycles. Seminal physical characteristics (aspect, color, volume, concentration, pH, sperm motility and vigor) and morphology (defects and integrity of sperm plasma membrane) were analyzed. The EPA method (1974, 1994, 2009) was used to determine the macronutrients, micronutrients and toxic metals in diets. Data were submitted to ANOVA and the means compared by Test t (P<0.05). The average feed intake was 4.778 ± 1.233 kg in the Control, 3.112 ± 0.693 kg in the FC-Base, and 4.558 ± 1,077 kg in the TADBase. The means of weight were 591.4 ± 103.3 kg, 566.4 ± 94.1 kg and 578.3 ± 107.5 kg and the scrotal circumference of 34.6 ± 2.0 cm, 33.0 ± 1.9 cm e 32.7 ± 1.9 cm for Control, FC-Base and TAD-Base, respectively. The spermatic concentration (x106 sptz/mL) was 1326.3 ± 893.8, 1698.1 ± 1023.0 e 1003.2 ± 569.0 for Control, FC-Base and TAD-Base, respectively. In the same order, the integrity of sperm plasma membrane (%) observed was 68.0 ± 19.5, 72.0 ± 22.6 and 82.1 ± 12.2. The progressive sperm motility (0-100%) presented significant difference (P<0.05) in the TAD-Base group (71.7 ± 15.1%), compared to Control (59.3 ± 20.5%) and FC-Base (56.7 ± 24.8%). Correlations were observed between the variables of response. The feed intake and your components, such as crude protein, lipids, macronutrients, micronutrients and toxic metals were higher in the TAD-Base group, exception to K and Ti, higher in the Control and the FC-Base group, respectively. No significant differences (P>0.05) were observed in semen aspect, volume, mass activity, spermatic vigor, pH and sperm pathologies. However, higher sperm concentrations were observed in FC-Base and increased motility and integrity of sperm plasma membrane in the TAD-Base. Thus, it can be concluded that diets based on byproducts of the agribusiness, such as coconut meal and palm kernel cake, can be used for buffalo bulls, however, the better semen quality was observed in diets based on palm kernel cake.

Farelo de coco e torta de dendê como suplementos alimentares na dieta de novilhas bubalinas recriadas em pasto de capim-marandu
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-07-18) AMARAL JÚNIOR, João Maria do; FATURI, Cristian; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8389692203753236; BERNARDES, Thiago Fernandes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9614321233731548
The dairy buffaloes production in the State of Pará, which has 51% of national buffalo herd, has been seeking alternatives to increase the productivity of systems, which are based on the use of pasture as a food source. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the performance off buffalo heifers grazed in marandu grass and supplemented with different strategies. A total of 48 heifers and average initial age of 12 months and weight of 207,0 kilograms were distributed in a completely randomized design with four treatments and two replications. The experimental diets were supplemented with a base of coconut meal (COC), the second base of palm kernel cake (DEN), third with corn and soybeans (FS + M) as positive control and a fourth treatment using mineral mix (MM) as a negative control. The animals fed the supplements COC, DEN e M+FS provided additional daily gain of 0,399, 0,405, 0,319 kg / animal, respectively, compared to the control group (P<0,05). The treatment on coconut got the best economic value when compared to other treatments. Dietary supplementation of buffalo heifers grazed in the dry period within use of by-products provides similar gains with the binomial corn and soybean meal and additional when compared to the mineral salt at a lower cost, resulting in increased productivity, sustainability and revenue of the activity.
