摘要
Twelve barrow Iberian pigs with an average weight at slaughter of 109.2 kg were used to evaluate bioelectrical impedance procedures to predict the body composition of live pigs. Twelve hours before slaughter pigs were weighed, and a four-terminal body composition analyser (Model BIA-101, RJL Systems, Detroit, MI) was utilized to determine resistance (R-s in Omega) and reactance (X-c in Omega). The length values (L in cm) were measured between detector electrodes with a flexible steel tape. Twenty four hours after slaughter the left side of each carcass was separated using a scalpel into fat, lean, bone and skin. Multiple regression equations for estimating lean, fat, bone and skin amounts and lean, fat, bone and skin proportions with respect to slaughter weight were calculated. The live weight (LW) and L independent variables predicted 85.3% and 64.3% of the variability of the lean amount and lean proportion, respectively. The LW, X-c and L variables accounted for 96% and 91.6% of the variation in fat quantity and fat proportion, respectively. The LW and R, accounted for 58.9% of the variation in bone amount, and the same variables predict 79.1% of the variability of bone percentage. The R-s and L variables explained 68% of the variability of skin quantity and LW, R-s and X-c predicted 83.1% of the variation of skin proportion. Results from this experiment indicate that bioelectrical impedance may be of interest for body composition prediction of live Iberian pigs. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
