1 st WorkshopXIII International Feed Technology SymposiumMYCOTOXINS ADSORBENTS IN PORK FEED – EFFECTS ONCARCASSES AND MEAT QUALITYNatalija Džinić 1 , Ljiljana Petrović 1 , Vladimir Tomović 1 , Predrag Ikonić 2 , Tatjana Tasić 2 ,Snežana Savatić 11 Faculty <strong>of</strong> technology, University <strong>of</strong> Novi Sad, Bulevar cara Lazara 1, 21000 Novi Sad2 Institute for food technology, University <strong>of</strong> Novi Sad, Bulevar cara Lazara 1, 21000Novi SadABSTRACTThis paper investigates the influence <strong>of</strong> adsorbents mycotoxins addition in pigs diet onthe carcass <strong>and</strong> meat (M. Semimembranosus) quality. In basal mixture for pigs fatteningthree different adsorbents: Min-a-zel (inorganic adsorbent) <strong>and</strong> Mycosorb <strong>and</strong> Myc<strong>of</strong>ix(organic adsorbent) were added.Carcass quality (yield <strong>of</strong> meat in carcass) was determined by the method <strong>of</strong> two points,while the technological quality <strong>of</strong> meat was investigated determining: initial <strong>and</strong> finaltemperature, initial <strong>and</strong> final pH, water holding capacity (WHC), initial <strong>and</strong> finallightness (L * ), initial <strong>and</strong> final share <strong>of</strong> the red (a * ) <strong>and</strong> yellow (b * ) colour.The nutritive quality <strong>of</strong> meat was investigated determining the content <strong>of</strong> moisture,protein, free fat, total ash <strong>and</strong> by determining the content <strong>of</strong> total pigments as colourparameters.Results shown numerically but not significantly higher meat yield (P>0.05) in carcasses<strong>of</strong> pigs fed with the addition <strong>of</strong> adsorbents Mycosorb <strong>and</strong> Min-a-zel compared with themeat yield in carcasses <strong>of</strong> pigs fed st<strong>and</strong>ard mixtures. According to parameters <strong>and</strong>criteria for meat quality it was determined that the average technological quality <strong>of</strong> meat<strong>of</strong> control <strong>and</strong> experimental groups was normal RFN (reddish, firm, non-exudative).The highest protein <strong>and</strong> the lowest free fat content had M. Semimembranosus <strong>of</strong> pigs fedwith the addition <strong>of</strong> Min-a-zel, but these values were not statistically significant (P>0.05)comparing to the control group.Results obtained during the investigations point to a positive opinion on the use <strong>of</strong>mycotoxins adsorbents (Mycosorb <strong>and</strong> Min-a-zel) in pigs feed.Key words: mycotoxins adsorbents, pork, quality carcass <strong>and</strong> meatINTRODUCTIONMycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites <strong>of</strong> fungi (Fusarium, Aspergillus,Penicillium), <strong>and</strong> in the animals <strong>and</strong> human organisms reach via contaminated food[21]. Mycotoxins are harmful for animals <strong>and</strong> if they are present in feed, even in smallquantities, they negatively affect the animal health <strong>and</strong> production results [20]. Disordersin animal production results are very common. Lower feed conversion <strong>and</strong> lowerproduction parameters generally are associated with the use <strong>of</strong> food contaminated withmycotoxins [12].329
