Summary

STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF ELECTRICAL STIMULATION, NO STIMULATION, HOT BONING AND COLD BONING ON BACTERIOLOGICAL AND SHELF LIFE EVALUATIONS. FOLLOWING 7 DAYS OF VACUUM PACKAGED STORAGE, COLIFORM COUNTS WERE HIGHER IN THE DRIP FLUID FROM STRIP LOINS AND LEAN SURFACES OF EYE OF ROUNDS FROM ELECTRICALLY STIMULATED COMPARED TO NONSTIMULATED CARCASSES. A MAJOR ADVANTAGE FOR HOT BONING WAS THE ADDITIONAL TIME REQUIRED IN RETAIL DISPLAY BEFORE THE OCCURRENCE OF LEAN SURFACE DISCOLOURATION.
