Summary

Quick-freezing of muscle surface with normal glycolysis during rapid chilling, results in significant deterioration in the ultrastructure, retraction of sarcomere and displacement of sarcoplasma. In muscles with accelerated glycolysis, there is no significant difference between muscle ultrastructure, prior to and after rapid chilling.
