Sažetak

The aim of the study was to observe the microclimatic conditions in chilling room and their influenceonpork temperature, pH value, amount of lactic acid, and microbiological quality of pig carcasses surface. During the experiment, the temperatures in chilling room and the temperatures of meat corresponded with valid food legislation. The values of relative humidity were in one third of measurements lower and in more than a half of measurements higher than limits prescribed. Higher values of relative humidity have adversely influencedthereductionof aerobic plate counts. In two cases, the non-standard post-mortal process (evaluated on the basis of pH value and the amount of lactic acid) was discovered.
