Summary

THE EFFECT OF CO2 CHILLING ON DRIP, APPEARANCE AND SARCOMERE LENGTH WAS INVESTIGATED BY COOLING HOT BEEF SEMITENDINOSUS MUSCLES FROM ONE END WITH SOLID CARBON DIOXIDE, THUS OBTAINING A RANGE OF COOLING RATES COVERING CO2 AND CONVENTIONAL CHILLING WITHIN SINGLE MUSCLES. DRIP RANGED FROM 3 TO 12% AND CORRELATED WITH THE CHILLING RATE EXCEPT WHERE FREEZING AND SUBSEQUENT THAWING OCCURRED. STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN APPEARANCE WERE FOUND BUT ARE COMMERCIALLY UNIMPORTANT.
