Measuring the effects of phenotype and mechanical restraint on proteolytic degradation and rigor shortening in callipyge lamb longissimus dorsi muscle during extended aging

The purpose of this study was to determine if tenderness of callipyge (CLPG) longissimus dorsi muscle (LM) could be improved by: (1) extending the aging period to 48 days postmortem or (2) preventing rigor shortening by clamping. In CLPG and normal (NML) chops respectively, initial Warner-Bratzler s...
