BACKGROUND Studies on prevalence of pale, soft, exudative (PSE) condition in Sri Lankan poultry industry is minimal. Hence, the objective of present study was to determine the incidence of PSE chicken meat in a commercial meat processing plant and to find out its consequences on meat quality traits of roasted chicken breast. METHOD A total of 60 breast fillets were randomly selected, evaluate...

In 1997, the Federal Government introduced a new food safety regulation for meat and poultry slaughter and processing plants. Under the Pathogen Reduction and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point rule (commonly known as HACCP), slaughterhouses and processors must adopt new procedures to reduce the incidence of foodborne illness transmitted by raw meat and poultry products (see box, The HA...

On-farm, intensive feeding and processing in Australian red meat, dairy pork industries produce substantial quantities of organic waste (∼79 GL·annum−1 liquid plus ∼2 megatonnes·annum−1 solid waste) management is a major cost (∼180 million dollars. annum−1 for meat processing). Anaerobic digestion can instead extract value from as biogas energy biofertiliser to reduce operational costs environm...

Poultry meat and eggs are important food products and the poultry-related industry is an economically important component of the agro-industry in the EU. The industry however is under pressure and faces many challenges. Most importantly, there is a demand for eggs and meat of high nutritional value and free of microbiological and chemical hazards. Unfortunately poultry eggs and meat are one of ...

The authenticity of food is currently a major issue for researchers, consumers, industries and policy markers at all levels of the production process. Particularly in the meat industry, products from game animals are susceptible targets for fraudulent labeling due to the economic profit that results from selling cheaper meat as meat from more profitable and desirable species. A part from meat s...

Pork quality is important both to the meat processing industry and consumers' purchasing attitude. Copy number variation (CNV) is a burgeoning kind of variants that may influence meat quality. In this study, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed between CNVs and meat quality traits in swine. After false discovery rate (FDR) correction, a total of 8 CNVs on 6 chromosomes were iden...
