Beschreibung:
Knowledge of muscle biology is continuing to expand in the animal and food sciences industry, especially the understanding of the mechanisms that control skeletal muscle development, growth, and their impacts on meat production and quality. Applied Muscle Biology and Meat Science provides agriculturalists with state-of-the-art information and a platform to further explore this specialized topic. It also gives novices a comprehensive knowledge base in applied muscle biology and meat science. Many existing problems in meat science and production are due to a lack of understanding of the underlying biological mechanisms of the livestock. Careful to avoid gory processing details, the text focuses on biological changes and the appropriate management techniques for meat animals.
Muscle structure and function. Satellite cell biology. Adipose tissue development in extramuscular and intramuscular depots in meat animals. Fetal programming of skeletal muscle development. Muscle fiber characteristics and their relation to meat quality. Muscle protein turnover. Collagen. Protein degradation postmortem and tenderization. Regulation of postmortem glycolysis and meat quality. AMP-activated protein kinase in muscle growth, fat deposition and meat quality. Meat color. Lipid oxidation and flavor. Lipids in muscle structure, composition, and metabolism. Fish muscle. Molecular mapping and marker-assisted breeding for muscle growth and meat quality. Animal agriculture and animal welfare: an essay on how they benefit each other in the 21st century.
