Sažetak

Electrical stimulation (ES) is considered a routine procedure in industrial meat production. Advantages of electrical stimulation are: better and complete bleeding, rapid decrease of pH which in conjecture with rapid cooling inhibits growth of bacteria. Aforementioned advantages prevent bleeding, superficial putrefaction and enhancement of meat viability. Furthermore, application of ES enhances water bonding, which in turn affects sensor properties (better tenderness, richness and meat colour stability). Experiences have shown that electrical stimulation decreases appearance of cold shortening of muscle fibres and enhances technologic meat properties. After initial positive results with beef, electrical stimulation application is introduced in the production of other meat types (pork and poultry).
