Full Description
Improving the Sensory and Nutritional Quality of Fresh Meat, Second Edition, reviews the essential knowledge of the mechanisms underlying quality characteristics and methods to improve meat sensory and nutritional quality. Part One analyzes the scientific basis of meat quality attributes, with new chapters that cover pre- and post-slaughter inputs affecting meat quality, important flavor precursors impacting the sensory characteristics of meat, and measurable biomarkers linked to meat quality from different production systems, amongst others. Part Two looks at how meat quality can be measured, with coverage of advances in measuring the sensory aspects of meat and spectroscopic approaches to on-line monitoring of meat quality. The final section looks at new techniques to improve the quality of meat with new chapters on genomic approaches to improve quality of meat and high pressure processing to enhance eating quality. With its distinguished editors and international team of contributors, the book continues to be a standard reference for those industrialists and academics interested in optimizing meat quality.
