Resumen

Con el fin de determinar su potencial de uso por parte de la industria, esta investigación tuvo como objetivo evaluar las características de la canal y la calidad de la carne fresca y la carne separada mecánicamente (CSM) de conejos del cruce de Nueva Zelanda × Botucatu. Se evaluaron cortes promedio de canal (52,46%) y pata trasera (33,88%), pata delantera (15,51%), lomo (13,63%) y espalda (39,83%), con una relación carne/hueso de 1,65. La composición próxima y las características tecnológicas del pH, la capacidad de retención de agua y el colágeno total de la carne fueron similares a la carne de las especies comúnmente vendidas. La carne de conejo es de color claro (L* = 65,93) y rojo poco intenso (C* = 19,24 y h = 52,79 °) debido al bajo contenido de pigmentos hemo (19,89 µg hematina ácido/g). El CSM obtenido cumplió con los niveles de proteína y grasa requeridos por la legislación brasileña, pero con un alto contenido de calcio (1,45% base seca). Se concluyó que los conejos representan un recurso viable de carne no convencional con alto potencial de uso en procesamiento. Además de la carne, también se puede obtener CSM para su uso como ingrediente en productos cárnicos industriales.
