The effect of electrical stimulation and postmortem time on properties of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)The left sides of six mature (USDA E-Maturity) cattle were electrically stimulated with 18 impulses of approximately 500 volts. The right sides of the carcasses served as controls (NS). Samples (200 g) were excised at 0 ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)A two dimensional finite element model was used to predict the temperature and surface heat transfer coefficient in the cooling of beef carcasses. The middle of the loin was the location chosen for modeling. The model was ...
