This work was carried out to study the effects of corn grain replacement with glycerin (812 g of glycerol per kg/DM) and vegetable oils (cashew and castor) on the carcass characteristics and meat quality of Purunã bulls finished in a feedlot. A total of 32 Purunã bulls (¼ Aberdeen Angus + ¼ Caracu + ¼ Charolaise + ¼ Canchim) with a mean age of 12 ± 2.0 months and a mean body weight 206.1 ± 20.0 kg were distribu...

This study evaluated the effects of diets composed by cottonseed hull and meat aging on carcass characteristics and meat quality from young bulls fed on a high-concentrate system. Thirty crossbred bulls were assigned in a complete randomized experimental factorial design with three diets (CH21: cottonseed hull 210 g kg-1on a DM basis, CH27: cottonseed hull 270 g kg-1on a DM basis and CH33: cottonseed hull 330 g...
