Interrelationship between measures of collagen, compression, shear force and tenderness

This study examined the relationship between collagen content as determined by hydroxyproline assay with other measures of connective tissue, shear force and tenderness in lamb muscle. Samples were taken from both m. longissimus lumborum (LL, loin) and the m. semimembranosus (SM, topside) of 99 lamb...

Zusammenfassung:This study examined the relationship between collagen content as determined by hydroxyproline assay with other measures of connective tissue, shear force and tenderness in lamb muscle. Samples were taken from both m. longissimus lumborum (LL, loin) and the m. semimembranosus (SM, topside) of 99 lambs. Sensory tenderness and compression of the LL were not correlated to any measure of collagen or connective tissue, with one exception where compression was correlated (r=−0.28; P
