O experimento foi conduzido com o objetivo de determinar a composição química e os coeficientes de digestibilidade aparente da matéria seca (CDAMS), proteína bruta (CDAPB), extrato etéreo (CDAEE) e da energia bruta (CDAEB) de alimentos alternativos para o tambaqui. No experimento foram utilizados 108 tambaquis com peso médio de 165,3 ± 15,6 g, em seis tratamentos e três repetições, sendo seis peixes por parcela experimental. Foram confeccionadas seis rações experimentais, sendo uma ração referência, baseada de farelo de soja e milho, e, as demais contendo 70% da ração referência, e 30% dos alimentos testados (farelo de arroz integral (FAI), farinha do feno da folha da leucena (FFL), farinha do feno da folha da mandioca (FFM), raspa da raiz integral da mandioca (RRIM) e a torta de babaçu (TB)). Para avaliar a digestibilidade aparente dos nutrientes, utilizou-se o método indireto de coleta de fezes por decantação e dióxido de titânio como indicador inerte adicionado à dieta em uma concentração de 0,1 %. Dentre os alimentos avaliados, a FFM, FFL e da TB contêm elevados teores de fibras, o que reduz os coeficientes de digestibilidade dos referidos alimentos. O FAI e a RRIM apresentam os maiores CDAMS, CDAPB, CDAEE e CDAEB, indicando que podem ser alimentos com potencial no uso em rações para tambaqui.
The object of this work was to study the dielectric properties of papaya seeds of the Golden cultivar and seeds of two papaya hybrids, Tainung and Calimosa, in the frequency range from 75 kHz to 5 MHz at four levels of bulk density, and with moisture contents ranging from 6 to 23% wet basis. The relative permittivity and the loss factor of the seeds were measured using a precision LCR meter, and their relationship with the variable frequency of the oscillating electric field, the seed moisture content and bulk density, and the cultivar/hybrid type were established. Relative permittivity for each value of the moisture content was reduced regularly as the frequency increased. Abrupt changes in the slopes of the curves demonstrating the relationship between the relative permittivity and the loss factor, and the moisture content were considered an indication of changes in the water sorption mechanisms occurring within the seed. The relationship between the relative permittivity and the loss factor, and bulk density was represented by linear functions with positive slopes. The effect of the cultivar or hybrid types on the relative permittivity and the loss factor revealed that seeds of the Golden cultivar and the Tainung hybrid exhibited similar relative permittivity values in the whole frequency range studied, in contrast to seeds of the Calimosa hybrid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
