摘要: The aim of this study was to determine the effects 8 h road transportation on physiological responses and meat quality traits sheep at 6, 12, 24 mo age. Seventy-two male were equally divided into transported (TRANS) nontransported (CON) treatments (n = 36), each treatment subdivided 3 groups by age 12). Sheep in CON weighed, blood sampled, slaughtered, whereas TRANS transported, slaughtered collect samples. BW reduced significantly (P 0.05) packed cell volume lymphocyte number. Serum creatine kinase activities affected 0.01) an interaction effect between 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances serum increased 0.009) with greatest change for 6-mo-old compared older sheep. In conclusion, resulted greater heme pigment concentrations but improved tenderness induced However, different ages showed present pattern.
