Reviews advances in understanding how breeding and growth affects the development of quality attributes such as fat content and tenderness; Summarises recent research on how management of cattle and carcass handling affects sensory properties; Discusses current research on measuring and optimising quality traits such as colour, flavour and tenderness
This comprehensive handbook provides information on history, breeds and genetics, statistics, animal health, production, product utilization, and future projections.The focus is on large, domestic animals, but small animals are also covered. References are provided which will lead the reader to specialized subject areas. Each broad cross-section is written by respected authorities in the field.This is a handy and convenient animal reference source for teachers, graduate students, and researchers in the fields of animal science, agricultural science, and food science and technology.
Encyclopedia of Meat Sciences, Third Edition, Three Volume Set is the most up-to-date reference work on topics central to agricultural and food science researchers at all levels. With over 250 outstanding articles written by world leading experts, the book offers unparalleled coverage of the science and technology of producing and harvesting animals for meat, along with tactics for preservation and processing. Clearly divided into 12 distinct sections, topics covered include all aspects of the production of animals, poultry, fish and other species commonly 'farmed' and/or 'harvested', as well as the science of meat preservation and processing and consumer issues. New to this third edition are chapters covering the core scientific advancements of recent years, including gene editing of animals, sustainability and zoonotic diseases. In addition, the book introduces a templatized chapter approach, thus providing consistency to the entire work and maximizing the clarity and accessibility of its content for the reader. Chapters, once again, include a variety of images, charts, graphs, and/or diagrams to enhance the text.

"Consumer expectations of sensory and nutritional quality have never been higher. Drawing on an international range of expertise, this book reviews research in understanding and improving the quality of beef. Part 1 reviews how breeding and growth affect carcass composition. Part 2 discusses aspects of husbandry affecting meat quality such as nutrition, metabolic modifiers and handling of cattle. The book then goes on to discuss factors affecting flavor, color and tenderness, as well as grading, packaging and methods for measuring sensory quality. Ensuring safety and quality in the production of beef Volume 1: Quality will be a standard reference for animal and food scientists in universities, government and other research centres and companies involved in beef production. It is accompanied by Volume 1 which reviews safety issues in beef production."--Provided by publisher.
