The study was carried out on 6 buffalo calves reared in a farm near Salerno and slaughtered at 14 ± 16 months of age.

For each muscle were collected: (a) samples of 40 mm of diameter and 13 mm of height to determine hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness and total moisture release, parallely to direction of muscle fibres, by Texturometer; (b) samples of 2.54 cm of diameter and 2 cm of lenght to determine the shear force, resistance and work, using Warner Bratzler Shear installed on Instron 1140. The Gb was hardest muscle requiring the greatest work of chewiness; the St showed the highest shear force value.

Abstract

The study was carried out on 6 buffalo calves reared in a farm near Salerno and slaughtered at 14 ± 16 months of age. The following muscles [Caput longum tricipitis brachii (CloTB), Gluteobiceps (Gb), Semitendinosus (St), Semimembranosus (Sm) and Longissimus dorsi (LD)] were analysed by Texturometer and Warner Bratzler Shear instruments. For each muscle were collected: (a) samples of 40 mm of diameter and 13 mm of height to determine hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness and total moisture release, parallely to direction of muscle fibres, by Texturometer; (b) samples of 2.54 cm of diameter and 2 cm of lenght to determine the shear force, resistance and work, using Warner Bratzler Shear installed on Instron 1140. The Gb was hardest muscle requiring the greatest work of chewiness; the St showed the highest shear force value. On the contrary, CloTB was less hard and showed lower work and total moisture release.
