ABSTRACT:This study aimed to assess the parameters of milk quality of properties with different technological standards. Twenty five properties were analyzed from 7 countries from the West of Santa Catarina, and classified according to production technologies (feeding, breeding and management practices in general), capital used in the activity, technological standard of machinery, equipment and infrastructure. Ten properties were classified as low technological standard, 8 intermediate standard and 7 high technological standard. The milk's quality data of each property (fat, protein, somatic cell count (SCC) and total bacterial count (TBC)) were supplied by dairy products, being used the average of the months of February, March and April of 2013. The data was subjected to multivariate statistical analysis and variance. It was found that the properties of low technological standard had higher fat content in milk, followed by intermediate and high standard which didn't differ. The protein contents were higher in the properties of low standard with relation to intermediate standard, being that the high-tech standard didn't differ from the other groups. With regard to TBC, the properties of low-tech showed higher values when compared to the other groups, while the SCC did not differ between the different technological standards. We concluded that the technological standard of the properties influenced the parameters of protein, fat and TBC, being that in according with increased of the level of technological of properties, there was a decrease in these parameters, except that SCC didn't show the same behavior, not being influenced by technological standards. The percentage variations in milk protein and fat were explained by racial pattern of the animals and the amount of concentrate supplied to the animals. The TBC was influenced by the milking hygiene practices, such as milking system's pre-disinfection and the use of hot water in the sanitation of the equipment.

Objetivo. El diseleniuro de difenilo (Ph2Se2) es un compuesto de selenio orgánico que es conocido por sus características antioxidantes. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar si Ph2Se2 en las dietas de codorniz (Coturnix japonica) influye en el estado oxidativo/antioxidante y la calidad de la carne. Materiales y métodos. Se proporcionaron cuatro dietas (0; 0.3; 0.6; 0.9 ppm Ph2Se2) a 56 codornices machos (Coturnix japonica) distribuidas en un diseño completamente aleatorizado con 14 repeticiones para verificar si Ph2Se2 cambiaría su sangre y tejido oxidativo/antioxidante, estado, lo que llevaría a una mejora en la calidad de la carne. Resultados. La adición de Ph2Se2 en las dietas provocó un aumento de la actividad antioxidante de enzimas como la catalasa, la superóxido dismutasa y la glutatión peroxidasa, lo que redujo los niveles de oxidación en la sangre y los tejidos. Además de eso, observamos una mejora en la calidad de la carne de codorniz; en otras palabras, observamos una mayor capacidad para retener agua, una reducción en la pérdida de agua debido a la cocción y una menor intensidad del color amarillo en las mamas de las aves que fueron alimentadas con Ph2Se2. Conclusiones. Por lo tanto, concluimos que la mejora de la defensa antioxidante en los tejidos proporcionada por Ph2Se2 tiene un efecto beneficioso sobre la calidad de la carne.
