Defining the role of mitochondria in fresh meat quality development
… is widely valued as an indicator of fresh meat quality as it directly affects the quality characteristics of color, texture, and water holding capacity. Therefore, our research was conducted to identify the processes responsible for determining ultimate pH. Pigs harboring the AMPK�•3R200Q …

Pectoralis muscle of turkey displays divergent function as correlated with meat quality
… can also result in aberrant fresh meat quality development and may ultimately alter the quality characteristics of cooked product. Our objective was to describe the underlying cause and significance of two-toning in fresh turkey breast. In the first experiment, pectoralis muscles were …

Harvest practices cause aberrations in pork quality
… characteristics contribute to variations in pork quality but these characteristics fail to explain the high frequency of two-toning and other pork quality defects routinely occurring in many hog processing facilities. Therefore, we hypothesized harvesting practices, such as scald alter color …

AMP-activated protein kinase and muscle metabolism
… metabolism and pH decline largely determine pork quality development. Pigs with the AMPKγ3 R200Q mutation generate pork with low ultimate pH (pHu); this is attributed to high glycogen content, and greater "potential" to produce lactate and H+. We hypothesized that decreasing muscle phosphocreatine …

Effects of time and temperature during melanging on the volatile profile of dark chocolate
… Despite being essential to flavor and overall quality development, it has never been studied, and all data on its application to chocolate are anecdotal. This research evaluated the melanging step at three different temperatures in order to determine, via Head Space Solid Phase Micro Extraction …
