Basic Meat Chemistry
Basic Meat Chemistry a chapter from the Meat Processing Technology Series published by the American Meat Science Association. The process by which a live animal is converted into a carcass from which meat cuts are fabricated is characterized by, and can have profound effects on, meat chemistry and ultimately meat quality. The objective of this chapter is to review the biology and chemistry of postmortem muscle (i.e., meat) to facilitate a fundamental understanding of this food product.

Sausage Casings
Sausage Casings - a chapter from the Meat Processing Technology Series published by the American Meat Science Association. The discussion first centers on natural casings, or those encasements harvested from the abattoir. The discussion next moves to regenerated cellulose casings, encasements made from solubilized and regenerated wood pulp or
cotton cellulose, and from there to a discussion of regenerated collagen casings, or encasements made from collagen dough obtained from the
corium layer of select beef hides. Discussions of collagen co-extruded encasements as well as thermoplastic casings conclude this module.
Casing innovations and trends are addressed as well as food safety and compliance issues.
