Early Postmortem Metabolism and Protease Activation in Fast Glycolytic and Slow Oxidative Bovine Muscles

Muscle properties and metabolism influence muscle to meat conversion. Fiber type profile impacts glycolytic capacity as well as protein turnover rate in vivo. Our objective was to investigate protease content and activation during the early postmortem period using muscles with known divergent metabo...
