Sažetak
Plasma creatinine is the final product of muscle creatine catabolism and used as an index of total muscle mass. It has been determined in 24 young Simmental bulls aged 3.9, 11.5 and 13.5 months. They were progeny of two sires and were treated as two groups. After slaughter the right thoracic rib cut (7-9) was dissected into longissimus dorsi muscle (LD) and other muscles (OM). The animals in group I had lower mean creatinine levels during fattening compared with group II. Significant difference (P .05) between groups was established at the age of 11.5 months. Creatinine level at the age of 3.9 months in group I significantly influenced the creatinine difference between 3.9 and 11.5 months (P .01) as well as the difference between 3.9 and 13.5 months (P .001). Creatinine level at the age of 3.9 months in group II was significantly correlated with the values 11.5 (P .02) and 13.5 months of age, but lhad no significant influence on the increase of creatinine value. Creatinine difference between 3.9 and 11.5 months of age was significantly correlated either with LD (P .04) ; group I) or OM (P .05 ; group II) tissue share.
