USDA GRADING
Quality versus Yield Definition(s)- provide uniform standards
Table 12.1 Factors Affecting Quality Grades
Kind, Class and Grade Maturity (Figure 12.2) Marbling relationship to palatability
Poultry (Table 12.2) Yield/Cutability (Table 12.3)

Yield Grade Relationships
Fat, muscle and bone relationshipsFigure 12.14
Regression models versus short-cut calculations
Anatomical measurements for compositional traits
Ex. Pork percent muscle, Beef yield grade

Conversion of Muscle to Meat
Ante-mortem versus post-mortem conditions of the animal
Steps:StunningExsanguinationAerobic to anaerobic conditionGlycogenolysis

Conversion of Muscle to Meat
ATP to ADP , thus energy expended Pyruvate converted to Lactate and
ultimately lactic acid Progressive reduction in pH Deviations of normal post-mortem
metabolismDark cutters, PSE, etc.

Meat Tenderness
Little can be gained by improvement of animal growth if the resulting quality of the endproduct is undesirable to the consumer
Connective Tissue- collagenAs animals mature crosslinkages increase
resulting in more stability, yet tougher and stronger collagen bonds thus decreases solubility and reduces gelatinization
![Page 7: Growth, Composition and Meat Quality ANSC 590 ANIMAL GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649e295503460f94b16b57/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Meat Tenderness
Myofibrillar Protein InteractionsDegree of overlapping structures within
actinomyosin formation resulting in varying sarcomere length
Proteolytic activity Calpain enzyme system are responsible for
destruction of myofibrils

Quality versus Quantity
Figure 12.23 Sex/gender variations within growth and
development-biological maturity Intact males have:
Less fat as well as less firmness of fat Increased protein, myoglobin, red color, yields Increased off-odors due to increased steroid metabolism
synthesized by the gonads, stored in the salivary glands, released by the saliva ingested and deposited in the fatty tissue
Skatole is a fat-soluble cmpd from tryptophan metabolism in the hind gut esp. in swine and is correlated to the off-odor

Absence of Fat
Cold shortening possibility Age
Negative relationship with increased ageExcept with feedlot cattle

PSS in pork
Rendement Napole Gene Acid meat Responsible for glycolytic potential index AMPK- adenosine monophosphate-activated protein
kinase which is responsible for synthesizing glycogen If this ability is lost and glycogen is accumulated at a
higher rate this produces more lactate and ultimately results in more acid meat upon rigor mortis completion
![Page 11: Growth, Composition and Meat Quality ANSC 590 ANIMAL GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649e295503460f94b16b57/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
PSS pork
Halothane Gene Extremely lean pigs Incapable of handling stress Malignant hypothermia along with cyanotic (blue),
lethargic, increased respiration, and increased core body temp
Characterized by a severe reaction when exposed to halothane gas
Positive pigs possess a mutated calcium release channel located in the SR. This is known as ryanodine receptor
![Page 12: Growth, Composition and Meat Quality ANSC 590 ANIMAL GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649e295503460f94b16b57/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
PSS pork
Halothane cont. Increased metabolism is a result of increased
ctyoplasmic calcium in early postmortem. This stimulates increases in glycogen phosphorylase which speeds up glycogen breakdown.
This increased rate of metabolism then increases the rate of pH decline when carcass temps are elevated
This ultimately reduces the water holding capacity

Double Muscling
Muscular hypertrophy- increase fiber size Increase yield and gains Decreased quality and reprod effic. Less connective tissue Increased cold shortening effect

NUTRITION
Delayed feedlot gains will decrease tenderness Shorter periods of feeding high energy will
results in lower quality aspects Connective Tissue concentration remains
constant with increased growth rates Due to increased proteases Lacks excessive cross-linking More soluble collagen matrices Do not remove high energy too long before slaughter
this may result in Dark Cutters
