IDENTIFICATION AND PREVENTION OF THE FORMATION OF MEAT WITH PSE AND DFD PROPERTIES AND QUALITY ASSURANCE FOR MEAT PRODUCTS FROM FEEDSTOCKS EXHIBITING AN ANOMALOUS AUTOLYSIS BEHAVIOR

Abstract

A method for determining the stress resistance of slaughter animals by measuring the electric conductivity of the Tan-Fu biologically active point has been developed. The possibility of preventing the formation of signs of PSE and DFD properties in meat of stress-sensitive animals through the inclusion of succinic acid and a motherwort extract into their diet has been explored. A method for predicting the quality of meat of slaughter animals while they are alive has been developed. The possibility of using electrochemically activated water for proving consumer properties of meat products from feedstocks exhibiting an anomalous autolysis behavior has been explored.
