| Özet |
| The objective of this study was to investigate the usefulness of leptin measurements for predicting back fat thickness and the amount of carcase fat in lambs with varying body weights (BWs). Blood samples were taken from 20 male Awassi lambs at 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 kg BW. Tail, omental, dissected, and total fat were measured at slaughter (40 kg BW). Ultrasound fat thickness (UFT) increased with BW (p < .05) whereas leptin concentration tended to increase (p = .09). Serum leptin concentration was correlated with BW for 25, 30, 35, and 40 kg BW (r = 0.53, 0.52, 0.51 and 0.61, respectively; p < .05) and with UFT for 30, 35, and 40 kg BW (r = 0.50, 0.51 and 0.59, respectively; p < .05); therefore it appears that leptin concentration is not a suitable predictor for BW and UFT in low BW lambs. In addition, similar correlations were found for leptin concentration and hot carcase, omental, dissected, and … |
