Manipulating meat quality and composition.
Meat quality describes the attractiveness of meat to consumers. The present paper focuses on two major aspects of meat quality, tenderness and flavour. Both aspects of quality can be influenced by nutrition, principally through its effects on the amount and type of fat in meat. In several countries, high levels of intramuscular fat (marbling fat), i.e. above 30 g/kg muscle weight in longissimus...
متن کاملHow Muscle Structure and Composition Influence Meat and Flesh Quality
Skeletal muscle consists of several tissues, such as muscle fibers and connective and adipose tissues. This review aims to describe the features of these various muscle components and their relationships with the technological, nutritional, and sensory properties of meat/flesh from different livestock and fish species. Thus, the contractile and metabolic types, size and number of muscle fibers,...
متن کاملBreast meat quality and composition in unique chicken populations.
The objective of this project was to examine the diversity of breast meat composition and quality traits among unique resource populations. Birds from 5 groups (inbred Leghorn, inbred Fayoumi, commercial broilers, F5 broiler-inbred Leghorn cross, and F5 broiler-inbred Fayoumi cross) were utilized. Contemporary stocks (broilers, inbreds, and crosses) were grown in a single house but in separate ...
متن کاملFat deposition, fatty acid composition and meat quality: A review.
This paper reviews the factors affecting the fatty acid composition of adipose tissue and muscle in pigs, sheep and cattle and shows that a major factor is the total amount of fat. The effects of fatty acid composition on meat quality are also reviewed. Pigs have high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), including the long chain (C20-22) PUFA in adipose tissue and muscle. The full rang...
متن کاملMeat Science and Muscle Biology: How Does Pre- and Postnatal Muscle Development Affect Meat Composition, Quality and Value?
The cellular basis for postnatal muscle growth and hypertrophy has been realized over the past several decades. Skeletal muscle is extremely responsive to environmental and physiological cues by modifying growth and functional characteristics in accordance with the demands placed on it. This ability extends to instances of injury or trauma, where skeletal muscle exhibits the capacity to regener...
