The Effect of PSE and Non-PSE Adductor and Semimembranosus Pig Muscles on the Occurrence of Destructured Zones in Cooked Hams

Table 3

Physical properties of m. semimembranosus muscle identified as PSE and non-PSE (means ± SD). The colour of m. semimembranosus (SM) was measured by the CIELAB system; the pH value was detected by a pH meter with a Double Pore needle probe.
