“…Similarly, Shehata (2005) reported that Biceps femoris muscle had higher moisture content (74.2%) compared with Longissimus thoraces muscle (69.2%) due to the higher fat content in the Longissimus thoraces muscle. However, the average value for moisture of Longissimus thoraces muscle was within the range reported for moisture (70-77%) for Longissimus thoraces muscle of dromedary camel (Kilgour, 1986;Babiker and Yousif, 1990;ElFaer et al, 1991;Elgasim and Alkanhal, 1992;AlAni, 2004;Cristofaneli et al, 2004;Kadim et al, 2009). The moisture contents of Triceps brachii, Semitendinosus and Biceps femoris muscles were higher than reported by Bebiker et al (1990) and Gheisari et al (2009).…”

“…Live weight at slaughter was 54.2±6.4 kg, which is lower than the 63.18 kg found by Cristofanelli et al (2004Cristofanelli et al ( , 2005 for carcasses of 25-month old males, and probably reflects the younger age of our llamas (18 to 24 months). Carcasses weighed 26.1±4 kg and presented a light and scarce fat coverage (1.33 ±0.46 in a 1 to 5 point scale).…”

“…Carcasses weighed 26.1±4 kg and presented a light and scarce fat coverage (1.33 ±0.46 in a 1 to 5 point scale). The mean pH values found for llama meat were 6.84±0.16 at 1 h and 5.42±0.11 at 24 h postmortem, with no final pH values > 5.8, which could be considered normal (Cristofanelli et al 2004). Greater initial muscle glycogen content confers an increased capacity for postmortem glycolysis, or high "glycolytic potential," that in turn, extends pH decline.…”

“…La alpaca tiene un menor peso corporal que la llama desde el nacimiento, haciéndose esta diferencia más marcada desde el sexto mes de edad (Cuadro 2), llegando las llamas machos a alcanzar pesos vivos de 63.2 kg y las alpacas 46.1 kg a los 25 meses de edad (Cristofanelli et al, 2004). Por otro lado, trabajos realizados en Bolivia (Condori et al, 2003b;Wurzinger et al, 2005; Choque y Tapia 2003) señalan pesos vivos de 73 a 79 kg en llamas machos a los 24 meses de edad.…”

“…Contiene alta biodisponibilidad de hierro y zinc (3.3 y 4.4 mg/100 g), siendo casi el doble que otras carnes rojas (Polidori et al, 2007a). Ambas especies producen carne con bajos niveles de grasa (0.49-2.05%) y colesterol (39.0-56.3 mg/100 g) comparada con otras carnes rojas (Cristofanelli et al, 2004; Mamani-Linares y Gallo, 2013a).Información científica sobre producción, calidad de carne y contenido nutricional es requerida por los ganaderos para promocionar la carne de llama en mercados locales e internacionales. Sin embargo, esta información se encuentra dispersa y escasa.…”
