Effect of vitamin D3 supplementation level on the postmortem tenderization of beef from steers

Abstract: The objective of this experiment was to determine the effect of different doses of vitamin D3 (VITD) on beef feedlot performance, plasma and muscle Ca2+, tissue residues, and improvement of Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBS) and panel tenderness. A total of 167 steers were fed one of six levels of VITD. The VITD treatments (28 steers/treatment) were 0, 0.5 x 10(6), 1 x 10(6), 2.5 x 10(6), 5 x 10(6), and 7.5 x 10(6) IU/steer daily of VITD fed nine consecutive days before slaughter. Feedlot performance and plasma… Show more

“…Our data showed that steers fed the diet without Ca supplement tended to have higher concentrates intake and lower grass-hay intake, compared to steers fed the diet with Ca supplement (limestone) when they were allowed to have free access to diet. The decreased intake of concentrates in steers fed the diet with Ca supplement is not likely attributable to hypercalcemia because serum Ca contents were not different between two groups (Table 2), although hypercalcemia induced by a high dose of vitamin D3 has been shown to decrease feed intake in pigs (Wiegand et al, 2002) and steers (Montgomery et al, 2002).…”

“…For further clarification we are planning on another experiment, in which diets with or without Ca supplement are isocaloric. Interestingly, Montgomery et al (2000Montgomery et al ( , 2002 found that tenderness was improved without a significant increase in plasma 1,25-(OH)2-D3 levels when steers were fed 5×10 6 IU of vitamin D3 per day for 9 d before slaughter, while plasma concentrations of Ca…”

“…Supplementation with mega doses of vitamin D 3 (5 or 7 MIU head -1 d -1 ) for 5 to 10 d prior to slaughter has been shown to increase plasma calcium levels (Aranda-Osorio et al 2004) and improve beef tenderness (Swanek et al 1997(Swanek et al , 1999Montgomery et al 2000Montgomery et al , 2002. However, supplementation at such high levels to finishing steers shortly before slaughter can result in marked increases in vitamin D 3 levels in muscle and adipose tissue and in edible organs such as liver (Montgomery et al 2000(Montgomery et al , 2002.…”

The objective of this study was to determine if plasma Ca levels of steers fed a finishing diet could be manipulated through dietary means (i.e., feeding a low-Ca diet followed by supplementation with a high-Ca diet and anionic salts) in combination with reduced levels of vitamin D 3 (i.e., 0.6, 1.2 or 2.4 MIU head -1 d -1 ).…”

“…Los resultados obtenidos por Swanek et al (1999) y Montgomery et al (2002) indicaron que los novillos suplementados con vitamina D presentaron mayor concentración de calcio en plasma y músculo Longissimus, en comparación a los animales no suplementados. Los aumentos en el contenido de calcio se vieron reflejados en el aumento de la terneza, atribuible a la activación de las calpaínas (Swanek et al, 1999) o aumento en la longitud de los sarcómeros (Rafalska, 2016).…”
