The effect of exercise stress, adrenaline injection and electrical stimulation on changes in quality attributes and proteins in Semimembranosus muscle of lamb

Exercise pre-slaughter has previously been shown to increase drip loss and tenderness in the longissimus muscle of lambs. The mechanism causing higher water loss in post-mortem muscle of lambs is not well understood. This experiment examines the effects of exercise stress, adrenaline injection and e...
