Nutrient database improvement project: the influence of USDA quality and yield grade on the separable components and proximate composition of raw and cooked retail cuts from the beef chuck.

چکیده
This study was designed to provide updated information on the separable components, cooking yields, and proximate composition of retail cuts from the beef chuck. Additionally, the impact the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Quality and Yield Grade may have on such factors was investigated. Ultimately, these data will be used in the USDA - Nutrient Data Laboratory's (NDL) National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference (SR). To represent the current United States beef supply, seventy-two carcasses were selected from six regions of the country based on USDA Yield Grade, USDA Quality Grade, gender, and genetic type. Whole beef chuck primals from selected carcasses were shipped to three university laboratories for subsequent retail cut fabrication, raw and cooked cut dissection, and proximate analyses. The incorporation of these data into the SR will improve dietary education, product labeling, and other applications both domestically and abroad, thus emphasizing the importance of accurate and relevant beef nutrient data.

National Beef Market Basket Survey - 2006: External fat thickness measurements and separable component determinations for beef from US retail establishments.
A market basket survey for beef retail cut composition at the retail level (four stores each from two chains in each city) was conducted in 11 US cities from January to March 2006. Beef cuts (n=17,495) were measured for external fat thickness with cuts from the chuck (0.05cm), round (0.05cm), and miscellaneous (0.04cm) having less (P<0.05) fat than cuts from the loin (0.11cm) and rib (0.11cm). ...

Warner-Bratzler shear force for muscles from the upper 2/3 of USDA Choice grade was not significantly improved after 7 d postmortem aging, muscles from the USDA Select grade should be aged a minimum of 14 d postmortem to achieve optimum tenderness, and muscles need to be treated on an individual basis during fabrication and merchandizing of individual retail cuts or portions from muscles of the...
متن کاملMuscle profiling: Characterizing the muscles of the beef chuck and round.
To fully characterize properties of the muscles of the beef chuck and round, and to reveal potential opportunities to upgrade the value, 39 different muscles were dissected from 142 beef carcasses differing in carcass weight, yield grade, and quality grade. Numerous physical and chemical properties of the muscles were determined. Muscle effects were observed for all traits (objective color, exp...
متن کاملEffects of zilpaterol hydrochloride on retail yields of subprimals from beef and calf-fed Holstein steers.
Retail cutting tests were conducted on subprimals from cattle fed zilpaterol hydrochloride (ZH) to determine if the improved carcass composition and red meat yield resulting from ZH feeding would translate into increased retail yields of ready-to-cook products. As part of a 3-phase study, selection of carcasses from Holstein steers was done once (fall 2008), followed by the collection of carcas...
