Author(s) : CARBALLO J., GARCIA MATAMOROS E., JIMENEZ COLMENERO F.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

THE EFFECT OF ELECTRICAL STIMULATION AT 56 V EFFECTIVE VOLTAGE, WITH POLARITY REVERSED EVERY 10 SECONDS ON FROZEN LAMB CARCASSES FOR ONE YEAR WAS STUDIED. NON-ELECTRICALLY STIMULATED CARCASSES FROZEN PRE-RIGOR SHOWED EVIDENCE OF THAW RIGOR DURING THE FIRST 6 MONTHS IN WEIGHT LOSS, WATER HOLDING CAPACITY, AND SHEAR STRENGTH VALUES. ELECTRICAL STIMULATION AND PRE-RIGOR CONDITIONING PREVENTED THAW RIGOR IN THE CARCASSES. NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN PROTEIN SOLUBILITY WERE OBSERVED. RANCIDITY LEVELS REMAINED LOW, REGARDLESS OF THE TREATMENT APPLIED.
