Relationship between changes in core body temperature in lambs and post-slaughter muscle glycogen content and dark-cutting

Pre-slaughter stress may decrease muscle glycogen content, a key element for a suitable low ultimate pH and prevention of dark-cutting meat. Body temperature monitoring is a tool used in research on animal stress, as an indicator of stress events. Possible relationships between body temperature of s...
