VITAMIN AND MINERAL COMPOSITION OF MUTTON OBTAINED FROM SHEEP OF DIFFERENT GENOTYPES BRED IN THE REPUBLIC OF BELARUS

Abstract

The paper contains the results of studies on the vitamin and mineral composition of mutton obtained from the front, middle and back parts of carcasses of sheep of different genotypes bred in the Republic of Belarus. The mutton from sheep of the following genotypes was studied: wool-and-meat producing sheep (Precoce, Texel, Ile-de-France, Merinolandschaf, Suffolk, Lithuanian Black-headed), fur-and-meat producing sheep (Romanov sheep), meat-type sheep (Dorper). The difference in the content of vitamins (B1, B2, PP) and minerals (calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, sodium) in the front, middle and back parts of carcasses of sheep of different genotypes was established. The studies were carried out in the laboratory of applied research for meat processing industry of the meat products technology department and in the production and testing laboratory of RUE “Institute of Meat and Dairy Industry”. The data on the content of vitamins and minerals in mutton obtained from the front, middle and back parts of carcasses of sheep of different genotypes can be used in the development of a variety of meat products with specified properties.
