Journal ArticleDOI
Tenderness--an enzymatic view.
TL;DR: The objective of this manuscript is to describe the main endogenous proteolytic enzyme systems that have the potential to be involved in muscle post-mortem proteolysis and whether the experimental evidence available supports this involvement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors affecting birth weight in sheep: maternal environment.
TL;DR: Litter size, as expected, had the single greatest influence on birth weight with other significant effects being year of birth, maternal birth weight, maternal nutrition, sex of the lamb, ewe barrenness and maternal body composition at mating.
Journal ArticleDOI
The simultaneous use of ribonucleic acid, 35S, 2,6-diaminopimelic acid and 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid as markers of microbial nitrogen entering the duodenum of sheep.

TL;DR: It is concluded that where microbial N estimates of a more general and comparative nature are required, the use of RNA as a marker is probably adequate and appears to be more appropriate than DAPA or AEPA.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of maternal undernutrition before muscle differentiation on the muscle fiber development of the newborn lamb.
TL;DR: It has been shown that decreased maternal diet before muscle fiber formation will alter the muscle fiber development in the fetus and change the muscle characteristics of the newborn lambs.
