Abstract excerpt
The longissimus muscles (LM) from 12 lambs (eight = callipyge [CLPG] and four = normal [NML]; 48 kg) were used to 1) assess the effect of freezing with or without prior immersion in liquid nitrogen on calpastatin activity (CA) and on Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBS) in CLPG, 2) determine the freezing time required to reduce CA and WBS of CLPG to that of NML, and 3) compare sensory panel ratings for CLPG that is...
