Summary

TOTAL PIGMENT CONCENTRATION AND RATIOS OF MYOGLOBIN FORMS FOR ELECTRICALLY STIMULATED AND CONTROL (C) SAMPLES WERE NOT DIFFERENT. COLOR PANEL AND SEVERAL SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC MEASUREMENTS INDICATED ES PRODUCED A LIGHTER, BRIGHTER-RED COLOUR IN DISPLAYED STEAKS. DISAPPEARANCE OF REDUCED MYOGLOBIN DURING BLOOMING WAS SIMILAR IN UNAGED C AND ES STEAKS, BUT REDUCED MYOGLOBIN DECREASED FASTER DURING BLOOMING OF ES STEAKS AGED 6 DAYS. ES DECREASED ANAEROBIC METMYGLOBIN REDUCING ACTIVITY AND INDUCED MORE METMYOGLOBIN FORMATION WHEN STEAKS WERE IN A 1% OXYGEN ATMOSPHERE.
