Three muscle (LD, Sm and CLoTB) of 12 buffaloes were analyzed in order to study the percentage of fiber types and CSA of FG, FOG and SO fiber types. The results showed the possibility to use "combined histochemical method" to discriminate easily FG from FOG type also in buffalo muscle. LD muscle had more FG than CLoTB and Sm (44 vs 43% and 40%) whereas in Sm muscle the FOG were more frequent; the SO type had the same percentage in Sm and LD muscle (28%) and was less present in CLoTB (26%).

Abstract
Three muscle (LD, Sm and CLoTB) of 12 buffaloes were analyzed in order to study the percentage of fiber types and CSA of FG, FOG and SO fiber types. The results showed the possibility to use "combined histochemical method" to discriminate easily FG from FOG type also in buffalo muscle. LD muscle had more FG than CLoTB and Sm (44 vs 43% and 40%) whereas in Sm muscle the FOG were more frequent; the SO type had the same percentage in Sm and LD muscle (28%) and was less present in CLoTB (26%).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
