Investigation of dependence between carcass weight and skatole content in fatty tissue of young boars

This paper presents the result of investigation of skatole content in fatty tissue of young boars and its relation to carcass weight. A half of examined caracasses weight below 70 kg. The other half weight 0,296 ìg/g of fatty tissue. These results showed weak correlation with carcasses weight (rxy = 0,129). Average skatole content in fatty tissue of young boars with carcass weight below 70 kg was 0,186 ìg/g, while the young boars with carcass weight above 70 kg skatole content was 0,406 ìg/g. Statistically significant difference can be observed between these two groups (P (lt) 0,01). According to our results 46,67% of fatty tissue samples, skatole content was more than 0,25 ìg/g. while 63,33 of samples skatole conent was in the range of 0,20 ìg/g to 0,25 ìg/g. . U ovom radu prezentovani su rezultati ispitivanja sadržaja skatola u masnom tkivu mladih nerastova kao i njegova zavisnost od mase trupova mladih nerastova. Polovina ispitivanih trupova imala je masu ispod 70 kg, a druga polovina, jednaku, ili veću od 70 kg. Prosečan sadržaj skatola iznosio je 0,296 ìg/g masnog tkiva, i imao je jako slabu korelacionu zavisnost sa masom trupova (rxy = 0,129). Prosečan sadržaj skatola u masnom tkivu mladih nerastova, čija je masa trupova bila ispod 70 kg iznosio je 0,186 ìg/g, dok je kod mladih nerastova sa masom trupova iznad 70 kg prosečan sadržaj skatola iznosio 0,406 ìg/g. Između prosečnog sadržaja skatola u masnom tkivu mladih nerastova mase trupa ispod i iznad 70 kg postoji statistički značajna razlika (P (lt) 0,01). Prema našim rezultatima, u 46,67 posto uzoraka masnog tkiva sadržaj skatola iznosio je više od 0,25 ìg/g, a u 63,33 posto uzoraka sadržaj skatola kretao se u opsegu 0,20 ìg/g do 0,25 ìg/g. .
