Abstract:
... Beef imports in Chile have increase annually by close to 10% in the past 10 years, threatening the national industry. Understanding the importance of different attributes may help guide a strategy for the local beef industry. Thus, the goal of the study was to identify which attributes observable at the point of sale influence the beef buying process. The sample was a set of 406 price observations ...

Abstract:
... Tenderness is a muscle-specific trait critically influencing consumers’ acceptance of beef and overall eating satisfaction. Muscles in a beef carcass differ in their biochemical properties and thus may respond differentially to postmortem aging. Therefore, the objective of the current study was to examine the effect of aging time on tenderness of beef longissimus lumborum (LL), psoas major (PM), a ...

To identify biomarkers and unravel mechanisms of AT deposition, we combined gel-based and gel-free methods and we mined the differential proteome of the longissimus thoracis from cows differing by two levels of both carcass and muscular adiposities (CMA). We ...
