The aim of this study was to quantify and characterize the undergraduate theses of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Zootechnics (FMVZ) of the Universidad Nacional Micaela Bastidas de Apurímac (UNAMBA), Peru. All of the theses defended in the period 2012-2018 were reviewed. A survey was carried out among the thesis supervisors regarding the publications derived from the theses. Descriptive statistics were used to determine the frequencies and proportions. Besides, multiple correspondence analysis to estimate relationships between the variables and their categories were conducted. Of the 79 registered theses, the highest number of dissertations were done in 2018 (29.1%), the two main areas of research were animal production (54.4%) and public health (24%), the highest number was done on bovines (21.5 %), alpacas (16.5%) and dogs (16.5%), and 72.2% of the theses correspond to observa...

The experiment was carried out in Tamburco, province of Abancay, Peru with the objective of determining the effect of diets based on pisonay (Erythrina sp) on the concentration of tannins and total alkaloids, the serum concentration of the aminotransferases, the lesions in the liver and the liver/liveweight ratio of the guinea pigs. Leaves and petioles of pisonay were used with four months of regrowth and fresh alfalfa (Medicago sativa) with 28 days of regrowth in the diet of 24 improved male guinea pigs, distributed in three treatments: diet A100: 100% alfalfa (80 g), diet A50P50: 50% alfalfa (40 g) plus 50% pisonay (40 g) and diet P100: 100% pisonay (80 g). The feeds were supplied twice a day. Serum levels and liver/liveweight ratio were analysed with complete random design, the effect of diets on guinea pig liver lesions was analysed with Fisher's exact test. The concentration of tann...

El estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar la composición química y la degradabilidad ruminal de la materia seca (MS) y proteína cruda (PC) del pisonay (Erythrina falcata) a los 105, 120 y 135 días de rebrote. Se tomaron muestras de hojas y peciolo, se secaron y se colocaron 8 g de muestra molida por bolsa de nylon en el rumen de tres chivatos machos adultos por 0, 24, 48 y 72 horas. Los valores de MS y PC fueron 24.4 y 21.4% a los 105, 24.8 y 23.2% a los 120 y, 27.2 y 24.4% a los 135 días, respectivamente. La degradabilidad ruminal de la fracción insoluble potencialmente degradable de MS y PC fue 29.6 y 42.9% a los 105, 24.3 y 31.4% a los 120 y, 14.9 y 24.1% a los 135 días, respectivamente, y la degradabilidad efectiva de MS y PC fue 41.3 y 41.2% a los 105, 36.5 y 30.3% a los 120 y, 32.3 y 30.5% a los 135 días, respectivamente. El estudio demuestra que el follaje E. falcata a los ...

The study aimed to determine the chemical composition and ruminal degradability of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) of Erythrina falcata at 105, 120 and 135 days of regrowth. Leaves and petiole samples were dried and 8 g of dry grounded samples were placed in nylon bags in the rumen of three male goats during 0, 24, 48 and 72 hours. The DM and CP values were 24.4 and 21.4% at 105, 24.8 and 23.2% at 120 and, 27.2 and 24.4% at 105 days respectively. The ruminal degradability of potentially degradable insoluble fraction of DM and CP was 29.6 and 42.9% at 105, 24.3 and 31.4% at 120 and, 14.9 and 24.1% at 135 days, respectively, and the effective degradability of DM and CP was 41.3 and 41.2% at 105, 36.5 and 30.3% at 120 and, 32.3 and 30.5% at 135 days respectively. The study showed a higher protein advantage in goats at 105 days of growth of E. falcata foliage.
