Slaughter yield and meat quality of chicken at different length of preslaughter feed withdrawal
In the European Community, per-head consumption of chicken meat is steadily rising. Many consumers attempt eating more healthy products (BICKEL and WETSCHEREK, 2005) and that is why chicken meat with its low fat content is often preferred to beef or pig meat. Also events like the BSE-crisis or abuse of antibiotics in pig production, which are very present in the media, might lead the customers ...
متن کاملThe effect of feed withdrawal and crating density in transit on metabolism and meat quality of broilers at slaughter weight.
Commercial broilers are exposed to a number of stressors prior to slaughter, including feed deprivation, crating density (high vs. low), and transportation. Hence, the individual and additive or overruling effects of these stressors on welfare and energy metabolism were examined. Live weight gain, rectal temperature, physiological responses, and meat quality of broilers were determined. The fas...
متن کاملInfluence of increasing breast meat yield on muscle histology and meat quality in the chicken.
The histological characteristics, ie, myofibre types and cross-sectional areas (CSA), of pectoralis major and sartorius muscles of 20 male chickens from two lines (ten birds from each line) divergently selected for breast meat yield were compared. Moreover, some quality parameters (ie, drip loss, ultimate pH value and meat colour) of the breast muscle were recorded. The animals from both lines ...
متن کاملSources of Poultry Meat Contamination with Thermophilic Campylobacter before Slaughter
The possible sources of Campylobacter spp. in poultry meat before slaughter were studied by examining samples of feathers, cloaca swabs, litter swabs, transport coops, rinse water from coop washing equipment, and chicken breast supports in the slaughter line just before stunning. The samples were collected from 8 broiler houses and from 8 different producers, from a poultry integration system i...
متن کاملMeat Science and Muscle Biology Symposium: Impact of Pre- and Post-Slaughter Handling on Meat Quality
Market weight pigs are subjected to numerous stressors during the marketing process from loading at the farm to stunning at the packing plant. These stressors have important implications for animal well-being and fresh pork quality traits. The objectives of this presentation are to review: 1) pre-harvest stressors in pigs; 2) common measures of stress during handling and transportation; and 3) ...
