Abstract

The research was developed in the property” Los Morenos” in the municipality  Media Luna in Granma province had as purpose to evaluate some characteristic phytochemical and presence of secondary metabolites of 40 ovinos male pelibuey of Cuba weaned to the 120 days and divided in four treatments, it was included in the diet of three, of them tender leaves of the seagrassThalassia testudinum and leaves and tender shafts of the leguminous Leucaena leucocephala, the used methodology was a totally randomized design applied to the treatments to which were carried out the following evaluations and characteristic phytochemical like (MS, PB, FND, FAD, ca, p, EM, DMS, DMO), the presence of secondary metabolites was also determined as (Cumarins, Quinonas, Sugars reducers, Phenols, Tannins, Groups α-amines, flavonoids, Glycosides cardiotónics, Catequina, Triterpenos and steroids, Alkaloids, Polysaccharides, Antocianidinas) in what was determined bigger quantity of Alkaloids and Groups α-amines.
