Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a mixture of linoleic acid isomers which have been shown to provide beneficial health effects; particularly, the isomers cis‐9, trans‐11 (c9‐t11) and trans‐10, cis‐12 (t10‐c12) are those with proven biological activity. Some lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have demonstrated the ability to synthesise CLA in culture media...
El uso de compuestos químicos sintéticos para conservar alimentos o tratar enfermedades de origen bacteriano está limitado debido a que pueden ocasionar daños en la salud. Por ello, las industrias alimentaria y pecuaria buscan estrategias naturales para conservar alimentos y mantener la salud de los animales destinados a consumo humano. En este sen...
La mastitis bovina es una enfermedad causada por bacterias patógenas que infectan la glándula mamaria del ganado lechero, lo cual genera pérdidas económicas importantes, además, debido al uso excesivo de antibióticos para tratar esta enfermedad, los microorganismos han creado resistencia a estos fármacos, por ello, se buscan nuevas alternativas par...
Paratuberculosis is an infectious-contagious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium avium subspecie paratuberculosis (MAP), which affects the digestive tract of ruminants. MAP is distributed worldwide; however, there are no publications on the seroprevalence of this disease in cattle in Sonora State. Therefore, the objective of this study wa...
Simple Summary
The objective of this study was to assess the effect of adding a mixture of plant extracts on the productive performance, blood constituents, carcass characteristics, percentage relation between organ weight and live weight, quality, and sensory analysis of pork produced under heat stress conditions. The study was performed during th...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation of yeast culture (YC) in pigs under heat stress conditions on growth performance, blood metabolites, carcass traits, quality, and sensorial values of the meat. Thirty pigs (29.487 ± 1.46 kg) were stratified by body weight (BW) and randomly assigned to the following t...
Rehabilitating degraded arid lands requires overcoming biotic and abiotic limitations. The objective of this study was to determine if low-cost protective shelters improve the survival and growth of palo verde (Parkinsonia microphylla) plants during the first year of reforestation at degraded sites in the Sonoran Desert. Protective shelters were bu...
En la industria pecuaria es importante mantener al ganado en buen estado de salud para alcanzar niveles adecuados de producción. En la actualidad, el uso de antibióticos para el control de infecciones es limitado, debido a la resistencia de los microorganismos a estos fármacos. Por otro lado, los insecticidas y repelentes de origen sintéticos conti...
Growth performance and health status in three successive feeding phases (FI, FII and FIII, corresponding to 22-60, 60-90 and 90-113 kg of body weight, respectively), carcass characteristics and feed cost per kg gain by effects of different nutrient densities and of supplementation with live yeast, were evaluated in 60 growing-finishing pigs housed...
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has been shown to provide beneficial effects on health; however, the amount consumed in food is far from that required for the desired effects. Thus, increasing the CLA content in dairy foods through milk fermentation with specific lactic acid bacteria (LAB) offers an interesting alternative. Moreover, some LAB may be...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on immune response in pigs infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV). A total of 18 pigs 4 weeks of age were allocated to 3 treatments, 6 per treatment: 0% CLA, 1% CLA, and 2% CLA. Serum IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α; lymphocyte proli...
The conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a bioactive lipid found in natural form, mainly in food derived from ruminants. It has been demonstrated that supplementing the diet with CLA leads to positive health effects in a large variety of in vivo models; however, it is not found in food in sufficient amounts. Thus, some strategies have been proposed to...
