Efeitos de dietas com níveis crescentes de milho no metabolismo ruminal de energia e proteína em bubalinos Effects of diets with increasing corn levels on the ruminal energy and protein metabolism in buffalo

Abstract

Avaliaram-se os efeitos de dietas com níveis crescentes de milho em grão moído (0, 22, 37 e 49% na MS) em substituição ao feno de coast-cross mantendo-se diferentes relações proteína:carboidratos não-fibrosos (PB:CNF = 1,01; 0,39; 0,33 e 0,27) sobre o metabolismo ruminal de búfalos. Utilizaram-se quatro búfalos fistulados no rúmen, mantidos em delineamento quadrado latino 4 × 4, para a coleta de amostras do líquido ruminal, colhidas em cada período experimental (de 28 dias) nos tempos 0, 2, 4 e 8 horas após a alimentação. Em geral, os bubalinos apresentaram boa capacidade tamponante no rúmen, com pH médio alto (6,70) e aumento da ingestão de milho em grão moído. O acréscimo nos níveis de milho na dieta promoveu aumento da produção de ácido butírico. Somente a dieta com 49% de milho promoveu melhor fermentação ruminal, com menor propoção de ácidos acético:propiônico. A relação PB:CNF de 1,01 indica deficiência de energia da dieta disponível para microrganismos no rúmen ao longo do dia, enquanto dietas com PB:CNF entre 0,39 e 0,27 promovem fermentações ruminais semelhantes, o que indica sincronismo na utilização de nitrogênio e energia pelos microrganismos no rúmen nessas condições.The effects of diets with increasing ground corn grain levels (0, 22, 37 and 49% in the dry matter) substituting coast-cross hay, with different protein:non-fibrous carbohydrate ratios (CP:NFC = 1.01; 0.39; 0.33 and 0.27) were assessed on buffalo ruminal metabolism. Four rumen fistulated buffaloes were used kept in a 4 × 4 latin square design, to collect liquid ruminal samples, collected in each experimental period (28 days) at 0, 2, 4 and 8 hours after feeding. In general, the buffalo presented good buffering capacity in the rumen, with high mean pH (6.70) and increase in ground corn intake. The increase in the corn levels in the diet resulted in increased butyric acid production. Only the diet with 49% corn showed better ruminal fermentation, with a small proportion of acetic:propionic acids. The CP:NFC ratio of 1.01 indicated energy deficiency in the diet available for microorganisms in the rumen throughout the day, although the diets with CP:NFC between 0.39 and 0.27 resulted in similar ruminal fermentations, that indicated synchronization in nitrogen and energy use by the rumen microorganisms under these conditions.
