Electrical stimulation of beef carcasses (n=18) did not cause a
significant reduction in microbial population on three different sampling
positions immediately following slaughter. In constrast, significant
microbial reduction (P > 0.05) was found at position 2 (muscle
above aitch bone), but not at position 1 (inside of neck) or position...
A 2x2 factorial experimental design with 2 replications was
used to study the effects of a combination of electrical stimulation
and delayed chilling of pre-rigor muscle on meat characteristics.
Twenty Standard and Good grade beef cattle were slaughtered and 5
carcasses were assigned to each of the 4 treatments. Meat...

effect of ultra-hydrostatic pressure on warm excised pre-rigor
muscle, plus to take a thorough look at its effect on some meat
characteristics of economic importance.

and sheep) slaughtered at Oregon State...
Two numerical methods are presented that can be used to solve
second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations with periodic
boundary conditions. One of these methods is a shooting method developed
solely for the periodic problem. The other, "quasilinearization,"
is a method applicable to a wide variety of problems. It is...
A tracer method utilizing stable activable tracers (involving rare earth nuclides with short-lived t[subscript 1/2] < 1 day} activation products) for tracing fluid bound substances in fresh water is explored.
