Effect of frequency of the stunning current waveform on carcase and meat quality of turkeys processed in a commercial plant in the UK
2002
Wilkins, L.J. | Wotton, S.B.
1. This study compared the effects of electrical stunning delivered using high and low frequency waveforms on carcase and meat quality of turkeys processed under commercial conditions. 2. The use of a high frequency waveform (1400 Hz) resulted in a faster bleedout and an improvement in carcase quality associated with a substantial reduction in haemorrhagic downgrading conditions. 3. Frequency of the applied waveform influenced breast muscle pH and colour although the magnitude of the differences was considered to be of minimal significance in influencing consumer perception.
