Comprehensive Meat Quality Evaluation
The right half carcass was used for muscles determinations. Instantly after slaughter, aliquots of longissimus and gluteus, clean of connective tissue and superficial fat, were cut into small pieces, dipped in liquid nitrogen and stored at −80 °C until measurements of muscle antioxidant status. At 30 min postmortem (p.m.), a portable pH meter (HI 99163, Hanna instruments, Romania) equipped with a penetration electrode was used to determine the pH values of longissimus (at the last rib level) and gluteus (pH 30 min). The carcasses were kept in a cold room at 4 °C for 24 h, after which the pH was measured again (pH 24 h). Then, the complete longissimus and the gluteus were separated from the carcass. A 3-cm thick steak from the longissimus and the gluteus were allowed to blooming (15 min, 4 °C) and used for color measurement. Afterwards, these samples were vacuum-packed and stored at −20 °C for chemical composition analysis. Furthermore, 2 cm steaks were cut from longissimus muscle, trimmed of external fat and connective tissue and used to determine drip loss, thawing loss, and cooking loss. Samples for thawing loss were weighed and immediately frozen (−20 °C).

Postmortem Muscle pH and Color Evaluation
At 15 min and 24 h postmortem, color was expressed in the CIELAB color system, lightness (L* - dark to light level), red (a * - red / green intensity) and yellow (b * - yellow/blue intensity) using a colorimeter (CR-400, Konica Minolta Sensing, São Paulo, SP). The colorimeter was calibrated against black and white reference tiles before use. Evaluations were performed at the center of each muscle section, and values were expressed as the average of 3 measurements. Color measurements were determined at room temperature (20–25°C), on the surface of each muscle sample, at 3 randomly selected locations, using diffuse illumination and a 0° angle observer.
Pork Quality Traits Evaluation
The pH value of the LT was determined 40–50 min and 24 h after slaughter (HI99163, HANNA, Padua, Italy). The IMF content was measured using a Soxhlete extractor (SX-360, OPSIS, Lund, Sweden). Triglyceride content was determined using a triglyceride kit (EY-01H2206, Shanghai, China), following the manufacturer’s instructions.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
