In order to define the quality characteristics of different anatomical locations of Yunling cattle,the pressing loss rate,cooking loss rate,shear force,pH, L* value,a* value,b* value,crude protein content,crude fat content and moisture of supraspinatus (SU),infraspinatus (IF),triceps brachii (TB),rhomboideus (RH),serratus ventraliscervicis (SVC),splenius (SP),psoas major (PM),longissimus dorsi (LD),latissimus dorsi (LA),semimembranosus (SM),semitendinosus (ST),biceps femoris (BF),gluteus medius (GM),rectusfemoris (RF),vastus lateralis (VL), tensor fasciae latae (TFL) from Yunling cattle carcass were determined.The quality traits of Yunling cattle meat among different anatomical locations were analyzed using variance,correlation and standardization analysis. The result showed that there were significant differences in quality traits among various anatomical locations (P<0.05). The SU,IF,PM,SVC and TFL had higher tenderness comparing to other muscles with shear force values less than 4 kg,while the water holding capacity of SP,ST and VL was poorer than other muscles. The ST had the highest L* value among all muscles. There was significantly positive correlation between shear force and pressing loss, cooking loss rate. The LD and ST had similar quality characteristic,while BF,GM and VL had similar quality characteristic. It was showed that different parts of muscle had significant effect on Yunling cattle meat quality.The quality of forequarter meat was better, which could be used to develop high-end products.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to quantify intramuscular tenderness variation within four muscles from the beef round: biceps femoris (BF), semitendinosus (ST), semimembranosus (SM), and adductor (AD). At 48 h postmortem, the BF, ST, SM, and AD were dissected from either the left or right side of ten carcasses, vacuum packaged, and aged for an additional 8 d. Each muscle was then frozen and cut into 2.54-cm-thick steaks perpendicular to the long axis of the muscle. Steaks were broiled on electric broilers to an internal temperature of 71 degrees C. Location-specific cores were obtained from each cooked steak, and Warner-Bratzler shear force was evaluated. Definable intramuscular shear force variation (SD = 0.56 kg) was almost twice as large as between-animal shear force variation (SD = 0.29 kg) and 2.8 times as large as between-muscle variation (SD = 0.20 kg). The ranking of muscles from greatest to least definable intramuscular shear force variation was BF, SM, ST, and AD (SD = 1.09, 0.72, 0.29, and 0.15 kg, respectively). The BF had its lowest shear force values at the origin (sirloin end), intermediate shear force values at the insertion, and its highest shear force values in a middle region 7 to 10 cm posterior to the sirloin-round break point (P < 0.05). The BF had lower shear force values toward the ST side than toward the vastus lateralis side (P < 0.05). The ST had its lowest shear force values in a 10-cm region in the middle, and its highest shear force values toward each end (P < 0.05). The SM had its lowest shear force values in the first 10-cm from the ischial end (origin), and its highest shear force values in a 13-cm region at the insertion end (P < 0.05). Generally, shear force was lower toward the superficial (medial) side than toward the deep side of the SM (P < 0.05). There were no intramuscular differences in shear force values within the AD (P > 0.05). These data indicate that definable intramuscular tenderness variation is substantial and could be used to develop alternative fabrication and(or) merchandising methods for beef round muscles.  相似文献

Carcasses from Hanwoo steers (n = 15) and cows (n = 15) were classified into three groups: group 1 (G1), the carcasses had 10% to < 11.5% intramuscular fat (IMF) in loin muscles; group 2 (G2), the carcasses had 13% to < 14.5% IMF in loin muscles; and group 3(G3), the carcasses had 17% to < 18.5% IMF in loin muscles. These were used to evaluate the effects of gender and carcass group on quality traits and Warner–Bratzler shear force (WBSF) of Psoas major (PM), Longissimus thoracis (LT), Longissimus lumborum (LL), Longus colli (LC), Supraspinatus (SS), Latissimus dorsi (LAD), Semimembranosus (SM), Quadriceps femoris (QF), Biceps femoris (BF) and Semitendinosus (ST) muscles. Our results showed that pH values of LT, LL, LC, BF and QF muscles were lower in steers than in cows (P < 0.05). Water holding capacity (WHC) was found higher in LC, SS, LAD and QF muscles of steers (P < 0.05). At day 2 of ageing, gender affected the WBSF values of only PM, LD and QF muscles in G1, and QF muscle in G3; however, with additional ageing, the gender effect was observed for most of the muscles. Most muscles showed ageing responses; however, the rates of ageing response significantly varied depending on gender and carcass groups. The muscles of G1 and G2 had generally higher tenderization potentials than those of G3. Furthermore, most muscles in G3 had generally lower WBSF values than in G1 and G2. These results clearly indicate that ageing has a significant effect on quality and WBSF of beef muscles, and the classification by loin IMF level may be useful for prediction of the tenderness of other muscles.  相似文献

Beef carcasses (n = 150) of A-maturity were selected randomly to determine baseline shear force and sensory panel ratings, assess variation in tenderness, and evaluate mean value differences between Certified Angus Beef (CAB), commodity Choice, and Select steaks. Three steaks were removed from the triceps brachii (TB), longissimus lumborum (LL), gluteus medius (GM), semimembranosus (SM), biceps femoris (BF), and quadriceps femoris complex (QF), and assigned to Warner-Bratzler shear (WBSF) and sensory panel analyses. As anticipated, marbling score and measured percentage of i.m. fat were greatest (P < 0.05) for CAB, intermediate (P < 0.05) for Choice, and least (P < 0.05) for Select carcasses. A muscle x quality level interaction (P < 0.05) was observed for WBSF values and sensory panel tenderness ratings. The TB, LL, GM, and BF steaks from CAB carcasses had lower (P < 0.05) WBSF than Select steaks from the same muscles. Even though WBSF values did not differ (P > 0.05) between CAB and Choice QF and TB steaks, the LL and GM steaks from CAB carcasses were more tender (P < 0.05) than Choice-grade LL and GM steaks. The TB from Select carcasses had higher (P < 0.05) WBSF values than TB steaks from CAB or Choice carcasses, but sensory panel ratings indicated that quality level showed little consistency among the GM, SM, BF, and QF. Trained sensory panelists rated CAB LL steaks more tender (P < 0.05) than LL steaks from Choice and Select carcasses, and Choice LL steaks were evaluated as more (P < 0.05) tender than those from Select carcasses. These results demonstrate that the influence of marbling on tenderness was more evident in muscles of middle meats than in end cuts, particularly in muscles of the round.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine whether differences in pork tenderness and water-holding capacity could be explained by factors influencing calpain activity and proteolysis. Halothane-negative (HAL-1843 normal) Duroc pigs (n = 16) were slaughtered, and temperature and pH of the longissimus dorsi (LD), semimembranosus (SM), and psoas major (PM) were measured at 30 and 45 min and 1, 6, 12, and 24 h postmortem. Calpastatin activity; mu-calpain activity; and autolysis and proteolysis of titin, nebulin, desmin, and troponin-T were determined on muscle samples from the LD, SM, and PM at early times postmortem. Myofibrils from each muscle were purified to assess myofibril-bound (mu-calpain. Percentage drip loss was determined, and Warner-Bratzler shear (WBS) force was analyzed. Myosin heavy-chain (MHC) isoforms were examined using SDS-PAGE. The pH of PM was lower (P < 0.01) than the pH of LD and SM at 30 and 45 min and 1 h postmortem. The PM had a higher (P < 0.01) percentage of the MHC type IIa/IIx isoforms than the LD. The-LD had the greatest proportion of (P < 0.01) MHC IIb isoforms of any of the muscles. The PM had the lowest (P < 0.01) percentage of MHC IIb isoforms and a greater (P < 0.05) percentage of type I MHC isoforms than the LD and SM. The PM had less (P < 0.01) drip loss after 96 h of storage than the SM and LD. The PM had more desmin degradation (P < 0.01) than the LD and SM at 45 min and 6 h postmortem. Degradation of titin occurred earlier in the PM than the LD and SM. At 45 min postmortem, the PM consistently had some autolysis of mu-calpain, whereas the LD and SM did not. At 6 h postmortem, some autolysis of mu-calpain (80-kDa subunit) was observed in all three muscles. The rapid pH decline and increased rate of autolysis in the PM paralleled an earlier appearance of myofibril-bound mu-calpain. The SM had higher calpastatin activity (P < 0.05) at 45 min, 6 h, and 24 h and had higher WBS values at 48 h (P < 0.01) and 120 h (P < 0.05) postmortem than the LD. At 48 and 120 h postmortem, more degradation of desmin, titin, and nebulin were observed in the LD than in the SM. These results show that mu-calpain activity, mu-calpain autolysis, and protein degradation are associated with differences in pork tenderness and water-holding capacity observed in different muscles.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine effects of electrical stimulation (ES) on muscle quality and sensory traits of 12 Hampshire x Rambouillet callipyge lambs. One side of each carcass was randomly assigned to an ES treatment of 550 V and 60 Hz of electricity for 2 s on and 2 s off 15 times. The other side was a nonstimulated control (NES). Heated calpastatin, sarcomere length, myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), Warner-Bratzler shear (WBS), and trained sensory panel values were measured on the semitendinosus (ST), semimembranosus (SM), longissimus (ML), supraspinatus (SP), and triceps brachii (TB) muscles. Electrically stimulating the carcass sides induced a more rapid (P = .001) pH decline in the longissimus muscle, and ES sides had a brighter (P = .001) red color of loineye than nonstimulated sides. At d 14 of storage (2 degrees C), the TB had the highest (P < .05) MFI value, indicating more protein degradation, and the ST and ML muscles had the lowest MFI (P = .008). Regardless of ES treatment, SM and ML had the highest (P < .05) WBS values. The ST muscle had higher (P < .05) WBS values than the SP but did not differ (P > .05) from the TB muscle. Electrical stimulation had no effect on WBS or any trained sensory panel values (P > .05). The percentage of loin chops rated slightly tender or better was improved 30 to 34% by electrical stimulation (P < .05). The ML muscle was scored lower (P < .05) in sustained juiciness compared with the SM, SP, and TB but did not differ (P > .05) from the ST muscle. The SM and ML muscles were rated lower (P < .05) in initial and sustained tenderness scores than other muscles. Tenderness scores were higher (P < .05) for the TB than for the SP but did not differ (P > .05) from the ST muscle. Electrically stimulating callipyge carcasses improves the tenderness of loin chops by increasing the percentage of chops rated from slightly tough to slightly tender.  相似文献

The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of storage time (ST) and packaging method (PM) on tenderness and changes in intramuscular connective tissue (IMCT) strength of chevon. Spanish does (8 mo of age, average BW 25 kg) were harvested (n = 12), chilled at 4 degrees C for 24 h, and then fabricated into 2.5-cm-thick leg, shoulder/arm, and loin/rib cuts. The cuts from six carcasses were vacuum-packed and aged at 2 degrees C for 0, 4, 8, or 12 d. To assess the influence of a packaging method that favors oxidation on postmortem tenderization, the cuts from the remaining six carcasses were placed on styrofoam trays, overwrapped with polyvinyl-chloride film, and stored at 2 degrees C for similar periods. At each ST, longissimus (LM), semimembranosus (SM), and triceps brachii (TB) muscles were assessed for Warner-Bratzler shear (WBS) values. The WBS of uncooked meat, myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), and collagen solubility were assessed on LM. The IMCT samples were prepared to assess changes in mechanical strengths and for scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Intact honeycomb structures of endomysium, with no muscle fiber elements, were observable under SEM. The PM or ST did not influence the mechanical strength of IMCT preparations, as measured by a texture analyzer. Collagen solubility of LM muscles also did not change during aging. For both PM, cooked meat WBS values were higher (P < 0.01) in SM and TB than in LM. In the SM samples, the average WBS values were higher (P < 0.01) at d 0 than at other ST. Although MFI of LM increased with increasing aging time (P < 0.05), changes in WBS over ST were minimal in TB and LM samples. The WBS of uncooked LM decreased sharply up to 8 d postmortem in both PM (P < 0.05). However, there was no PM x ST interaction to indicate any adverse influence of packaging on tenderization of chevon. The results suggest that aging chevon cuts for more than 4 d may not result in significant additional improvement in tenderness.  相似文献

Left sides from 18 beef carcasses (9 steers and 9 heifers) were divided equally among three marbling groups (low = traces or slight; intermediate = small or modest; high = slightly abundant) and evaluated to determine the relationship between longissimus composition and the percentage each major muscle contributes to the weight of the beef carcass. The adductor (A), biceps femoris (BF), deep pectoral (DP), gluteal group (GL), infraspinatus (I), longissimus (L), psoas major (PM), rectus abdominis (RA), rectus femoris (RF), semimembranosus (SM), semitendinosus (ST), serratus ventralis (SV), spinalis (SP), supraspinatus (SU) and triceps brachii (TB) were removed, trimmed of external fat and weighed. Muscle weights were expressed as a percentage of hot carcass weight: A = .76%; BF = 3.30%; DP = 1.89%; GL = 1.81%; I = 1.10%; L = 3.35%; PM = .95%; RA = 1.12%; RF = .94%; SM = 2.35%; ST = 1.14%; SV = 2.26%; SP = .82%; SU = .69% and TB = 1.83%. The deep pectoral and triceps brachii were heavier (P less than .05) in steer carcasses than in heifer carcasses. No other significant sex effects were noted. Percentage of muscle tended to decrease with increasing marbling level; however, the linear regression of relative muscle weight on marbling level was significant for the BF, DP, PM, SM, SU and TB. Using marbling score or yield grade factors to predict the percentage of individual muscles in the carcass resulted in R/ values greater than .4 in 7 of the 15 muscles evaluated.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Changes in muscle growth, calpastatin activity, and tenderness of three muscles were assessed in 20 callipyge and 20 normal wether lambs slaughtered at live weights (LW) of 7, 20, 36, 52, and 69 kg. At 24 h postmortem, the longissimus (LM), semimembranosus (SM), and supraspinatus (SS) muscles were removed and weighed and samples were obtained for calpastatin activity (CA; 24 h) and Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBS; aged 6 d). For muscle weights and calpastatin activity, the weight group x muscle x phenotype interaction was significant (P < 0.05). Muscle weights were similar (P > 0.05) between phenotypes for all three muscles at 7 kg LW. At 20 kg LW, the LM and SM muscles from the callipyge lambs were heavier (P < 0.05) than those from normal lambs; however, the SS did not differ (P > 0.05) between phenotypes at 7, 20, or 52 kg. From 20 to 69 kg LW, the LM and SM weights were 42 and 49% heavier (P < 0.05) for callipyge than for normal lambs. Calpastatin activity of the callipyge LM was greater (P < 0.05) than that of normal LM at 36, 52, and 69 kg. In the callipyge LM, CA was similar (P > 0.05) at 20, 36, and 52 kg LW and did not differ (P > 0.05) from 7-kg or 69-kg values. Calpastatin activity declined (P < 0.05) across the growth curve for the SM and SS, but values were higher (P < 0.05) in the SM in callipyge than in normal lambs. Shear force values of the LM were lower (P < 0.05) for normal lambs at 36, 52, and 69 kg LW than for callipyge lambs. In the SM and SS, WBS values decreased (P < 0.05) across the growth curve, but values were higher (P < 0.05) for callipyge lambs in the SM only. These data indicate that the selective muscular hypertrophy of the callipyge phenotype develops during the postnatal growth period between 7 and 20 kg LW (19 and 100 d of age). Longissimus and semimembranosus muscles in the callipyge lambs were over 40% heavier from 20 to 69 kg LW; however, they also had higher levels of calpastatin activity and Warner-Bratzler shear force during this time period, indicating the need for postmortem tenderization treatments to improve palatability.  相似文献

The use of vitamin D3 and its metabolites to improve beef tenderness   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Three experiments were conducted to determine whether feeding 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OH D3) or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2 D3) improves the tenderness of longissimus dorsi (LD), semimembranosus (SM), and infraspinatus (IF) muscles similar to supplemental vitamin D3 without leaving residual vitamin D3 and its metabolites in muscle. In the first two experiments, 24 crossbred steers were used to determine the effects of different oral amounts of 1,25-(OH)2 D3 (Exp. 1; n = 12) and 25-OH D3 (Exp. 2; n = 12) on plasma Ca2+ concentrations. In the third experiment, crossbred steers were allotted randomly to one of four treatments: 1) control placebo (n = 7); 2) 5 x 10(6) IU of vitamin D3/d (n = 9) for 9 d and harvested 2 d after last treatment; 3) single, 125-mg dose of 25-OH D3 (n = 8) 4 d before harvest; or 4) single, 500-microg dose of 1,25-(OH)2 D3 (n = 9) 3 d before harvest. The LD and SM steaks from each animal were aged for 8, 14, or 21 d, whereas steaks from the IF were aged for 14 or 21 d. All steaks were analyzed for tenderness by Warner-Bratzler shear force and for troponin-T degradation by Western blot analysis. Supplementing steers with vitamin D3 increased (P < 0.01) the concentration of vitamin D3 and 25-OH D3 in all muscles sampled. Feeding steers 25-OH D3 increased (P < 0.05) the concentration of 25-OH D3 in meat, but to an amount less than half that of cattle treated with vitamin D3. Supplemental 1,25-(OH)2 D3 did not affect (P < 0.10) shear force values; however, there was a trend (P < 0.10) for supplemental vitamin D3 and 25-OH D3 to produce LD steaks with lower shear values after 8 and 14 d of aging, and lower (P < 0.10) shear force values for the SM aged for 21 d. Analysis of Western blots indicated that LD steaks from cattle supplemented with vitamin D3 and 25-OH D3 had greater (P < 0.05) troponin-T degradation. Antemortem supplementation of 25-OH D3 seems to increase postmortem proteolysis and tenderness in the LD and SM without depositing large concentrations of residual vitamin D3 and its metabolite 25-OH D3.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate the tenderness of beef chuck and round muscles when enhanced with ammonium hydroxide and salt at different pump levels. A randomized, complete block design of 4 treatments and 3 muscles with 3 replications was used, with a total of 15 subprimals per treatment. Treatments included a 0% (CON), 15% (T15), 22.5% (T22), and 30% (T30) target pump. The triceps brachii (TB), biceps femoris (BF), and rectus femoris (RF) muscles were studied. Muscles were injected with a solution of ammonium hydroxide and sodium chloride (patent-pending technology from Freezing Machines Inc., Dakota Dunes, SD). Individual steaks were cut to a thickness of 2.54 cm, vacuum-packaged in trays, and frozen. Warner-Bratzler shear force, pH, and sensory evaluations were determined. Shear force decreased as the target pump percentage increased for all muscles (P < 0.050): TB = 39.9, 35.1, 32.1, and 27.0 N; BF = 39.4, 26.2, 23.3, and 19.3 N; RF = 42.7, 32.9, 30.7, and 28.9 N for CON, T15, T22, and T30, respectively. In all cases, there were no shear force differences between T15 and T22 (P > 0.050). As percentage pump increased, pH increased. The ultimate pH was moderately strongly to strongly related to shear force (r = 0.55, 0.70, and 0.80 for RF, TB, and BF, respectively). Trained taste panel ratings revealed an increase in tenderness, decrease in connective tissue, and an increase in juiciness as pump level increased for all muscles. In all cases but one (juiciness of the RF), the CON had the least desirable ratings and shear force values (P < 0.050). There were no major differences between T15 and T22, and T30 steaks tended to have an uncharacteristic soft and mushy texture. For this reason a 20% target pump level was determined to be the optimum pump level. These data suggest that adjusting pH in beef with ammonium hydroxide and salt can increase tenderness in muscles from the beef chuck and round. Any level of treatment was beneficial, with the greatest shear force benefit occurring in muscle pumped to 30%.  相似文献

Muscles from beef carcasses (n = 100) were selected from a commercial processor and aged for 14 d. Longissimus lumborum (LL), semimembranosus (SM), biceps femoris (BF), gluteus medius (GM), triceps brachii (TB), rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, adductor, semitendinosus, infraspinatus, teres major, biceps femoris ischiatic head, biceps femoris sirloin cap, and gracillus steaks were placed in display for 9 d. Instrumental color variables [lightness (L*), redness (a*), yellowness (b*), hue angle, chroma, and overall color change from d 0 (E)] were determined on d 0, 1, 3, 6, and 9 of display. Muscle pH and myoglobin content were determined for LL, SM, BF, GM, and TB. Muscles differed (P < 0.05) in initial values of each color variable evaluated, and the extent and timing of changes during display differed across muscles. Relationships between color variables measured in LL steaks and those measured in steaks from other muscles differed across days of display with the strongest relationships being observed earlier in the display period for labile muscles and later in stable muscles. Lightness of LL steaks was correlated with lightness of all of other muscles evaluated, regardless of display day (r = 0.27 to 0.79). For a*, hue angle, chroma, and E values, the strongest relationships between LL values and those of other muscles were detected between d 9 LL values and those of other muscles on d 3, 6, or 9, depending on the relative stability of the muscle. Correlation coefficients between d 9 a*, hue angle, chroma, and E values in LL and those of other muscles were 0.50, 0.65, 0.28, and 0.43 (P < 0.05) or greater, respectively, for the muscles included in the study. Myoglobin content of SM, BF, GM, and TB was highly correlated with that of LL (r = 0.83, 0.82, 0.72, and 0.67, respectively; P < 0.05). Muscle pH of LL was correlated with pH of SM and GM (r = 0.44 and 0.53; P < 0.05), but not (P > 0.05) pH of BF or TB. Muscle effects generally explained more variation in a*, b*, hue angle, chroma, and E than animal effects. However, the relative importance of animal effects increased as display continued. These data indicate that animal effects were consistent across muscles, though muscle effects had greater contribution to color stability variation. Furthermore, strong relationships between LL color stability and the stability of other muscles indicate that strategies developed to manage animal variation in LL color stability would beneficially affect the entire carcass.  相似文献

The present study demonstrates the effects of different muscle types and chiller ageing periods on the chemical composition, meat quality parameters, sensory characteristics and volatile compounds of Karean native cattle beed. Longissimus dorsi (LD) and Semitendinosus (ST) muscles aged for 7 days and 28 days were used. Moisture, cooking loss, total collagen and Warner‐Bratzler shear force (WBSF) values for the ST were higher than the LD muscle regardless of ageing period (P < 0.05). The LD muscle had higher intramuscular fat (IMF) (P < 0.05). Ageing for 28 days decreased WBSF values whereas it increased thiobarbituric acid of both muscles. Moreover, tenderness, juiciness and flavor scores were significantly higher for the LD muscle at both ageing periods. Increased ageing time improved tenderness of both muscles, and increased juiciness of the LD muscle, whereas there was decreased flavor score of ST muscle (P < 0.05). The majority of the volatile compounds formed from the oxidation of lipids showed differences between the two muscles. Ageing for 28 days increased in the amounts of many volatile compounds; however, the amounts of some important volatile compounds were decreased. These results clearly demonstrate that muscle type and ageing have a potential effect on meat quality, sensory characteristics and volatile profile.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of sampling methodology on the relationship between longissimus tenderness and measures of biochemical meat traits. Sampling methodology included measurements of sarcomere length, collagen concentration, and postmortem desmin proteolysis on raw samples and measurements of these same traits on the same cooked meat used for shear force measurement. Twenty crossbred steers and 20 crossbred barrows were used for these studies. The beef longissimus thoracis were vacuum-packaged, stored at 2 degrees C until 14 d postmortem, then frozen and stored at -30 degrees C. The pork longissimus thoracis et lumborum were vacuum-packaged, stored at 2 degrees C until 7 d postmortem, then frozen and stored at -30 degrees C. Trained sensory panel tenderness rating ranged from 3.1 to 7.6 for beef and 4.1 to 7.4 for pork. The coefficient of variation was lower for sarcomere length than for all other traits. Simple correlation coefficients between measurements on raw and cooked samples were 0.58 (beef) and 0.11 (pork) for sarcomere length, 0.66 (beef) and 0.59 (pork) for collagen, and 0.74 (beef) and 0.76 (pork) for desmin degradation. Simple correlation coefficients between biochemical traits and measures of tenderness (Warner-Bratzler shear force and trained sensory tenderness rating) were higher or not different for cooked compared to raw samples. Correlation coefficients between biochemical traits and tenderness rating were 0.38 (raw) and 0.22 (cooked) for sarcomere length, -0.12 (raw) and -0.45 (cooked) for collagen, and 0.48 (raw) and 0.80 (cooked) for desmin degradation in beef longissimus and 0.14 (raw) and 0.15 (cooked) for sarcomere length, -0.38 (raw) and -0.33 (cooked) for collagen, and 0.53 (raw) and 0.67 (cooked) for desmin degradation in pork longissimus. The coefficients of determination for explaining variation in tenderness rating using sarcomere length, collagen concentration, and desmin degradation for raw and cooked samples were 0.43 and 0.73 (beef) and 0.48 and 0.57 (pork), respectively. This study indicates that measurements of biochemical traits on the same cooked meat as used for shear force determination account for more of the variation in measures of tenderness than biochemical measurements made on a separate raw sample.  相似文献

Salbutamol (2.7 ppm) fed to pigs between weaning and slaughter increased ADG (5%), dressing percentage (2%) and cross-sectional area of the longissimus (LD) muscle (14%). In fatter, White-line-sired pigs, but not in leaner, Meat-line-sired animals, it reduced backfat thickness (25%). Liver weight and glycogen concentration also were decreased. In neither genotype were there effects of Salbutamol on pH45, drip loss or reflectance value of the LD, but ultimate pH was elevated in semimembranosus (SM), adductor (AD) and supraspinatus (SS) muscles, resulting in reduced color saturation values. Total muscle heme pigment concentrations were reduced by 10 (SS) to 19% (LD and SM) and the intramuscular fat concentration of the AD, but not the LD, was reduced by 21%. Treated pigs had LD and SM muscles that when measured instrumentally were 15 and 8% tougher, respectively, after cooking, but the texture of the SS was not significantly altered by treatment. Salbutamol increased plasma lactate and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) concentrations. Compared with White-line-sired animals, Meat-line-sired pigs had a higher dressing percentage (2%) and LD muscles with larger cross-sectional area (13%). They also had higher circulating CPK levels.  相似文献

This research aimed to determine whether outdoor free-range rearing during the winter (average ambient temperature of 5 degrees C) vs. indoor housing (22 degrees C) affects meat quality, muscle metabolic traits, and muscle fiber characteristics. Forty Large White gilts and barrows were blocked by weight within each gender (20 per gender) and allotted randomly into two groups of pigs, with one reared indoors (IN) in individual pens (2.6 m2) and the other reared outdoors (OUT) from December to March in a 0.92-ha pasture. Both groups had free access to the same grower-finisher diet from 23 to 105 kg. At slaughter, adipose (backfat [BF] and omental fat [OF]) and muscle tissues (longissimus muscle [LM], rectus femoris [RF], and semitendinosus [ST]) were obtained from the right side of each carcass. Muscle fibers were stained and classified on the basis of stain reaction as slow-oxidative (SO), fast oxidative-glycolytic (FOG), and fast glycolytic (FG); fiber area and distribution were determined. Also assessed were carcass characteristics, initial and ultimate pH, L*a*b* values, drip loss percent, glycolytic potential (GP), and intramuscular lipid content, as well as the fatty acid profile of each muscle and adipose tissue. The OUT pigs had lower (P < 0.05) ADG and leaner (P < 0.05) carcasses than IN pigs. Rearing environment did not (P > 0.63) affect the intramuscular lipid content of the ST, but intramuscular lipid content was lower (P < 0.01) in the LM and tended to be higher (P = 0.06) in the RF of OUT than in those of IN pigs. In the BF outer layer of the OUT pigs, the higher PUFA content was compensated by both a lower (P < 0.01) saturated and monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) content, whereas in the OF, LM, and dark portion of the ST, only the percentage of MUFA was decreased (P < 0.01). In all tissues of the OUT pigs, the linolenic acid content was higher (P < 0.01) and the n-6:n-3 ratio was lower (P < 0.01). The GP of all muscles was higher (P < 0.01), and the ultimate pH of the RF and ST was lower (P < 0.01), in OUT compared with IN pigs. Lightness (L*) values were lower (P < 0.01) in the LM. Percentages of drip loss were higher (P < 0.05) in the LM and light portion of the ST of OUT than in those of IN pigs. The LM and RF of OUT pigs had more (P < 0.01) FOG and fewer (P < 0.01) FG fibers than muscles of IN pigs. Results suggest that rearing pigs outdoors increases aerobic capacity of glycolytic muscles but has little concomitant influence on meat quality traits.  相似文献

Crossbred steers (n = 30) were used to explore and compare tenderness improvements in beef round and sirloin muscles resulting from various methods of prerigor skeletal separations. Animals were slaughtered according to industry procedures, and at 60 min postmortem one of six treatments was applied to each side: A) control, B) saw pelvis at the sirloin-round junction, C) separate the pelvic-femur joint, D) saw femur at mid-point, E) combination of B and C, and F) combination of B and D. After 48 h, the following muscles were excised from each side: semimembranosus, biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and adductor from the round; vastus lateralis and rectus femoris from the knuckle; and gluteus medius, biceps femoris and psoas major from the sirloin. Following a 10-d aging period, samples were removed from each muscle to determine the effect of treatment on sarcomere length and Warner-Bratzler shear force. Most skeletal separation treatments resulted in longer sarcomeres than controls for semimembranosus, adductor, semitendinosus, and gluteus medius muscles. All skeletal separation treatments yielded shorter sarcomeres for the psoas major as compared with controls. Warner-Bratzler shear force differed among treatments for rectus femoris, semitendinosus, and psoas major. For rectus femoris, treatments C, D, E, and F resulted in lower (P < 0.05) shear values than for controls. Treatments B, D, and F increased shear force of the semitendinosus relative to controls (P < 0.05) within muscle. Treatment F resulted in higher shear force values for the PM than controls (P < 0.05). Correlations between sarcomere length and shear force were found to be low and quite variable among muscles. In general, treatments increased sarcomere length of several muscles from the sirloin/round region, but had mixed effects on shear force values.  相似文献
