Alternative methods of pig carcass description were compared as predictors of the weight (kg) of commercial lean yield and fat yield in 209 bacon weight carcasses. The predictors used included hot carcass weight and carcass sex in association with: the backfat measurements used in the Danish grading scheme (minimum loin, 3rd-4th lumbar and 3rd-4th last

Comparison of Carcass Weight and Carcass Characteristics in Some Cattle Breeds
Research and Practice in Veterinary and Animal ScienceBeef is an indispensable source of protein for humans. The production is increased in recent years with the effect of increasing population. Besides of beef cattle breeds, male calves of dairy breeding and combined productive animals are also been fattened. The aim of the study investigate the carcass yield and characteristics of the some beef cattles.

Prediction of carcass weight from live weight in beef animals
Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science, 2005Beef production is the most important farm enterprise on Northern Ireland farms, accounting for 32.5% of Gross Agricultural Output. In beef production the end saleable product is carcass rather than live weight. When undertaking nutrition studies with beef cattle, it is essential to evaluate effects on carcass characteristics, as improvement in live ...

WEIGHTS OF BROILER PARTS AS RELATED TO CARCASS WEIGHTS AND TYPE OF CUT
Journal of Food Science, 1973960 broiler carcasses weighing from less than 450 to 2000g were individually tagged and cut using eight commercial cutting techniques. Percentages of the different pieces to whole carcass weight ranged from 17.2% for split breast with back to 5.4% for drumstick portions.

Carcass data were obtained for 258 lambs [hot carcass weight 16.0-28.7 kg, fat depth at the GR site (12th rib) 5-23 mm]. The sample included ewes, wethers, and cryptorchids (86 of each). Of these, 130 carcasses (42 ewes, 45 wethers, 43 cryptorchids) were prepared as boneless, heavily trimmed, 'trim lamb' cuts (i.e.

SUMMARYA study was made of the effect on body composition of growing Angus steers from 300 to 440 kg at three different rates. The rates were: High (H) 0·8 kg/day, Low (L) 0·4 kg/day and High-Maintenance (HM) 0·8 kg/day followed by a period during which body weight was maintained constant.The animals were individually penned and the different growth ...

THE INFLUENCE OF METHYLANDROSTENEDIOL ON THE BODY WEIGHT AND CARCASS COMPOSITION OF THE RAT
Journal of Endocrinology, 1955SUMMARY 1. Male and female rats of 3½ months of age gained weight when treated with methylandrostenediol (MAD). The nature and extent of the response varied with the age of the animal. 2. Chemical analysis of the whole rat showed a gain of protein and water and a loss of fat as a result of MAD treatment.

The carcasses of 138 lambs were dissected into fat, muscle and bone as the basis for developing a model to estimate the weight of lean meat (muscle and intramuscular fat). The lambs represented two sexes (70 wethers, 68 ewes) and three sire genotypes (67 Poll Dorset, 39 Suffolk, 32 Wiltshire Horn) all from Border Leicester × Polwarth × Booroola type ...

Relation between Carcass Composition and Live Weight of Sheep
Nature, 1963A RE-EXAMINATION of the work of Hammond1, Wallace2,3, Palsson and Verges4,5, and Wardrop6, suggests that the carcass composition of a sheep, in terms of dissected bone, muscle and fat, is more closely related to its live weight than to its age. Using all the available data from these papers, including ewes and wethers irrespective of breed, age, stage ...

EFFECT OF CARCASS WEIGHT AND FAT THICKNESS OF LAMB CARCASSES ON SURFACE BACTERIA COUNTS
Journal of Food Science, 1979ABSTRACT Microbial studies were conducted to determine the rate of build‐up of surface bacteria during chilling and holding on carcasses of 141 lambs. Samples were obtained using the swab technique. Initial bacterial load was determined on hot carcasses.
