Resumo: The objective of the study was to evaluate the main pre-slaughter factors contributing to bruising on cattle carcasses in the micro-region of Araguaína, Tocantins. The experiment was conducted from January to June using data from 414 cattle heads of different breeds, body weight and sex. Factors related to bruises in cattle were evaluated from the farms to a federally inspected slaughterhouse in Araguaína. The independent variables were road type, journey distance (paved and mixed roads), journey time (paved and mixed roads), driver’s experience, prevalence of horns, sex class, falls during unloading, use of devices during unloading, truck maintenance conditions, presence of loose and/or protruding boards in the truck, condition of the truck floor, use of electric cattle prods during handling, presence of protruding nails and/or screws in the truck, arrangement of boards in the crowding pen, presence of broken boards in the cattle handling facility, angle of loading ramp, presence of protruding nails and/or screws in the cattle handling facility, and design and material of the cattle handling facility. The frequency of bruises was associated with the independent variables using contingency tables by the chi-square test (?2) to measure the association between variables. The variables road type, journey distance (mixed roads), journey time (mixed roads), animal behavior, falls during unloading, truck maintenance conditions, presence of loose and/or protruding boards in the truck, condition of the truck floor, arrangement of boards in the crowding pen, and presence of broken boards in the cattle handling facility had a significant effect on carcass bruising. Therefore, several pre-slaughter factors contribute to bruising on cattle carcasses.

O experimento foi conduzido com 414 bovinos de diferentes raças, peso e sexo, de Janeiro a Junho de 2013. Foram avaliados fatores relacionados às lesões em carcaças bovinas, desde as propriedades rurais até o desembarque no frigorífico sob Serviço de Inspeção Federal – SIF em Araguaína. As variáveis independentes foram: tipo de estrada, distância de transporte (somente estradas pavimentadas e estradas mistas), tempo de transporte (somente estradas pavimentadas e estradas mistas), atenção do condutor, presença de cornos nos animais, sexo dos animais, quedas dos animais no caminhão, uso de instrumentos ao desembarque, conservação do caminhão, tábuas soltas e/ou pontiagudas no caminhão, conservação do piso ou assoalho do caminhão, uso do bastão de choque elétrico no caminhão, prego e/ou parafuso com ponta exposta no caminhão, disposição das tábuas na seringa, tábuas quebradas no curral, declividade na rampa de embarque, prego e/ou parafuso com ponta exposta no curral, formato do curral e material para cercar o curral. A frequência de ocorrência das lesões traumáticas foi associada às variáveis independentes por meio de tabelas de contingência usando o índice de qui-quadrado (X2) para medir o efeito da associação. As variáveis: tipo de estrada, distância de transporte (estradas mistas), tempo de transporte (estrada mista), comportamento dos animais, quedas dos animais no caminhão de transporte, conservação do caminhão de transporte, tábuas soltas e/ou pontiagudas no caminhão, conservação do piso ou assoalho do caminhão, disposição das tábuas da seringa e tábuas quebradas no curral apresentaram efeito na ocorrência de lesões traumáticas. Conclui-se baseado nos resultados obtidos que devido ao manejo pré-abate em suas várias vertentes, que promove a ocorrência de lesões traumáticas em carcaças bovinas.UEL2019-10-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/3541210.5433/1679-0359.2019v40n6Supl3p3553Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 40 No. 6Supl3 (2019); 3553-3564Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 40 n. 6Supl3 (2019); 3553-35641679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
