摘要: The influence of carcass weight (CW) on instrumental and sensory meat quality traits was studied in Rasa Aragonesa lamb carcasses. Forty-six intact male carcasses were divided into three groups: 8.07 (S.D. 0.36) kg (A); 10.22 0.79) (B) 13.42 1.36) (C). Results indicate that CW significantly influenced measurements all the considered, except for waterholding capacity. increase produced higher pH, haem pigment redness (a∗) lower lightness. Shear values (p ≤ 0.01) group B. Sensory not by with exception juiciness. This parameter increased order A-B-C, subjective colour estimation darker groups B C. results show it is possible to produce heavier or lighter than traditional (Ternasco de Aragon, B), without significant losses quality. fact could give flexibility a system permitting slaughter be adjusted variations seasonal prices.
