Owing to the use of Zilmax, larger carcasses are now processed at abattoirs that were built to accommodate smaller carcasses. This creates challenges in terms of optimising muscle to meat conversion using ES and the appropriate chilling regime.en© Plaas MediaElectrical stimulationCarcass sizeMeat processing industrySouth Africa (SA)Natural and agricultural sciences articles SDG-02Natural and agricultural sciences articles SDG-09Natural and agricultural sciences articles SDG-12Article
