Summary

THE STUDY OF BIOCHEMICAL AND STRUCTURAL CHANGES IN MUSCLE AFTER SLAUGHTERING AND THE IMPROVEMENT OF PSE PROPERTIES BY CHILLING SHOWED THAT MUSCLES WITH A PH VALUE OF 5.4 TO 5.8 SHOULD BE CHILLED TO 307 K (34 DEG C) WITHIN 1 TO 1.5 HRS AFTER SLAUGHTER. THE QUICKER THE COOLING THE BETTER. FOR MUSCLES WITH NORMAL GLYCOLYSIS AND WITH A PH VALUE HIGHER THAN 5.8, A TEMPERATURE OF 288 K (15 DEG C) SHOULD BE REACHED WHILE THE PH VALUE DECREASES FROM 5.9 TO 5.8. THIS TEMPERATURE IS GENERALLY REACHED ABOUT 4 HRS AFTER SLAUGHTER.R. R.
