Effects of heat and acid stress on bacterial populations of beef, and on susceptible and multi-antimicrobial resistant Salmonella isolated from beef
… of decontamination treatments applied to beef carcass tissue following chilling, prevalence of susceptible and antimicrobial resistant Salmonella on beef animal hides and carcasses, and whether antimicrobial resistance provided cross-protection against low-pH or heat stress. Results of …

Selected skeletal alteration to improve beef tenderness
… the 12th thoracic vertebrae of one side of a beef carcass, while the other side, processed conventionally, served as the control. The effect of this cut upon yield grade, sensory attributes and tenderness of Longissimus steaks was determined. The treatment caused no differences (P>0.05) in …

Effect of electrical stimulation and genotype on meat quality traits of Nellore and crossbreed cull cows
The Brazilian beef cattle supply chain has undergone technological modernization in its production systems, resulting in better productivity, meat quality and competitiveness. Electrical stimulation (ES) has been used as an innovation in the meat industry to improve meat tenderness and colour of …

Evaluating Predictive Models for Predicting Total Score of Beef Carcasses
<p>The beef industry plays a vital role in global agriculture, with carcass quality and consumer preference being key determinants of market success. This thesis examines predictive modeling techniques for estimating the Total Score of beef carcasses, a composite measure representing yield and …

Effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms in leptin and pro-opiomelanocortin on peripheral eucocyte counts in beef cattle
… (POMC) have been associated with beef carcass quality and yield respectively. Both hormones also play a role in immune performance. Since both of these genes are pleiotrophic, it was important to determine whether selection based on these SNPs would negatively affect immune cell …

Novel Approaches to Exposure Assessment and Dose Response to Contaminants in Drinking Water and Food
… Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in beef products, can be mitigated through a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) framework that follows a farm-to-fork model. Methods to ensure greatest microbial reduction include: employed intervention strategies at slaughter plants (i.e., …

Pre-harvest and postmortem methods of decreasing the incidence and salvaging value of non-conforming beef carcasses
… been stated that the number of non-conforming carcasses in the beef industry cost the industry millions of dollars yearly in lost revenue. The objectives of this research were to identify muscles in dark-cutting beef carcasses that were not affected by the dark-cutting condition, identify …

The Influence of Growth Stage on Carcass Composition and Factors Associated with Marbling Development in Beef Cattle
… intramuscular fat (marbling) both increase in beef cattle during the feeding phase, but are antagonistic in regard to their contribution to beef carcass value. The objective of this study was to determine whether cellular factors associated with marbling development change with growth stage …

Longitudinal study of Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Listeria monocytogenes in a small and very small fresh meat processing plant environment
… a monthly basis. Environmental site (n ≤ 54) and beef carcass composite samples were collected mid-shift. Samples collected included food contact surfaces (e.g., tables, scales, bins), and non-food contact surfaces (e.g., walls, drains, sinks). Overall, 1,979 environmental sponge samples were …

Efficacy of the Microtally® Mitt for sampling of beef carcasses
… have been classified as adulterants in ground beef and any beef cuts intended for nonintact use. Therefore, testing carcasses and trimmings is a crucial step for identifying pathogenically contaminated products. Several sampling methods, including N60 excision, N60 Plus™, and continuous and …
