摘要
本研究旨在分析免疫抑制卵巢功能和发情(Improvest®;Zoetis Inc.)对胴体切割产量和肉质的影响。共有 1,080 头后备母猪按体重分配到每栏 27 头猪的猪栏中。然后随机选取猪栏,对其进行免疫抑制或不免疫抑制卵巢功能和发情的管理(IMP 与 CON)。在研究的第 7 天和第 67 天,对每头 IMP 后备母猪进行改良vest。猪只在研究的第 89 天(每栏 8 头最重的后备母猪)、第 103 天(每栏 8 头次重的后备母猪)和第 117 天(剩余猪只/栏)上市。从每个销售组的每个处理中挑选出最重的 47 至 50 头胴体,进行胴体切割测试,并在屠宰次日(宰后约 32 小时)评估肉质。从每个销售组的每个处理中挑选出 18 至 20 块猪里脊肉,在宰后贮存 14 天后进行肉质评估。胴体按照机构肉类采购规格(IMPS)制作,肉质分析包括死后 32 h 的 pH 值和仪器颜色,以及死后储藏 14 d 后的净化损失、pH 值、仪器颜色、肌内脂肪(IMF)、蒸煮损失和星形探针。活体性能数据以栏为实验单位进行分析,而胴体数据则以单个胴体为实验单位进行分析。在第二次给药后(从第 70 天到第 85 天),IMP 后备母猪的饲料消耗量比 CON 后备母猪多 10.8%(P P = 0.33 和 P = 0.65,分别为 P P = 0.33 和 P = 0.65)。CON和IMP后备母猪的肉质性状没有差异(P > 0.05),但死后32小时的器质a*与IMP后备母猪相比,CON后备母猪的器质a*高出0.32个单位。总之,通过免疫抑制卵巢功能和发情来管理市场上的后备母猪,可通过增加采食量来提高增重率;但胴体切割产量并无显著变化。
Carcass cutting yields and meat quality of market gilts managed with immunological suppression of ovarian function and estrus.
The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of immunological suppression of ovarian function and estrus (Improvest®; Zoetis Inc.) on carcass cutting yields and meat quality. A total of 1,080 gilts were allocated by weight and assigned to pens of 27 pigs/pen. Pens were then randomly selected to be managed with or without immunological suppression of ovarian function and estrus (IMP vs. CON). Improvest was administered to each IMP gilt on days 7 and 67 of the study. Pigs were marketed on day 89 (n = 8 heaviest gilts per pen), 103 (n = 8 next heaviest gilts per pen), and 117 (remaining pigs/pen) of the study. The heaviest 47 to 50 carcasses for each treatment from each marketing group were selected for carcass cutting tests and evaluation of meat quality the day following slaughter (approximately 32-h postmortem). A smaller subset of 18 to 20 pork loins per treatment from each marketing group were selected for meat quality evaluation following 14 d of postmortem storage. Carcasses were fabricated according to institutional meat purchase specifications (IMPS) and meat quality analyses included pH and instrumental color at 32-h postmortem and purge loss, pH, instrumental color, intramuscular fat (IMF), cooking loss, and star probe following 14 d of postmortem storage. Live performance data were analyzed using the pen as the experimental unit, while carcass data were analyzed using the individual carcass as the experimental unit. During the post-second dose period (measured from days 70 to 85), IMP gilts consumed 10.8% more feed (P < 0.01) and grew 13.5% faster (P < 0.01) compared with CON gilts. Hot carcass weight (HCW), and the weights of many cuts, were significantly influenced by the interaction of Improvest management and marketing group. Therefore, the focus was directed toward primal weights and merchandized cut weights when expressed as a percentage of HCW. When expressed as a percentage of HCW, primal-cut yield and merchandized-cut yield calculations were not different (P = 0.33 and P = 0.65, respectively) between CON and IMP gilts. Meat quality traits did not differ (P > 0.05) between CON and IMP gilts, with the exception of instrumental a* at 32-h postmortem which was 0.32 units greater for CON gilts compared with IMP gilts. In summary, managing market gilts with immunological suppression of ovarian function and estrus improves the rate of weight gain through increased feed intake; however, carcass-cutting yields were not significantly changed.
