Type of article: Article

Summary

Formation of PSE meat is due to denaturation of pre-rigor myosin. A simple model based on the kinetics of denaturation of myosin in carcasses has been developed taking into account the effects of pH and temperature on the denaturation rate. The glycolysis effects on myosin denaturation are investigated.
