heal.abstract |
A two-trial experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of caponization on fat metabolism-related biochemical characteristics of broilers. Male Redbro broilers were purchased, caponized at 3weeks and reared until either the 18th (Trial 1) or the 24th (Trial 2) week. In Trial 1, five slaughters were performed at 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18weeks of age while in Trial 2 one slaughter at the end of the experiment (24weeks). In each slaughter, the abdominal adipose tissue cellularity, the NADP dehydrogenase activity in the liver and some serum lipoproteins concentrations were assessed. Caponization had a marked effect on the adipocyte volume and NADP-malate dehydrogenase activity in the liver at 24weeks but it did not affect adipocyte number or the activity of NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase activity at any age (p<0.05). Regarding the lipoproteins, cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol were elevated in capon serum at 18weeks of age while no difference was detected in the triglyceride concentration at any age. In conclusion, a relationship between fat deposition at the phenotypic level and the level of lipogenic enzymes and lipoproteins capons was established but not as pronounced as expected as some parameters displayed a constant increasing pattern while others did not. © 2011 Blackwell Verlag GmbH. |
