THE EFFECT OF CLENBUTEROL ON GROWTH
PERFORMANCE, CARCASS CHARACTERISTICS AND MEAT
QUALITY OF GROWING MALE PIG
ABSTRACT
The objective of this research was to study the effect of clenbuterol on growth
performance, carcass characteristics and quality of meat of growing male pig. This
study was conducted as a factorial experiment with a completely randomized design.

This study used three clenbuterol levels, i.e. 0 mg, 0.2 mg and 0.4 mglkg feed
respectively and two breeds of pig i.e. local pig and crossbred pig. The total pigs
used which twenty four male pigs consisting of 12 heads of local pig and 12 heads of
cross bred, with the average of initial live weight of 52.5

* 28.26 kg. Pigs were given

ad libitum access to a 14.96% crude protein and ME 2400 Kcalkg diet. The diet was
formulated according to NRC. All pigs were slaughtered following 6 weeks of
experimental period and data on carcass characteristics were collected.
The parameters observed were growth performance, carcass characteristics,
proximate analysis, carcass measurements, commercial component of carcass,
cholesterol, physical component of carcass and analysis of fatty acids. The data
obtained were analyzed by analysis of covariance.
The results of this study showed that growth performance was not different
significantly. Among carcass measurements, the abdominal fat was significantly
(Pc0.05) between breed of pig. Carcass characteristics and component of carcass
were not significantly different. The proximate analysis of carcass showed that the
ash and fat percentage were highly significantly different (P
