Abstract
ABSTRACT The toughening effect of cutting chicken broiler breast muscle within 1 hr after slaughter was prevented by injection of sodium polyphosphates into the muscle at 20 min postmortem. After aging, pH of polyphosphate‐treated muscles averaged 6.15 compared with 5.81 for untreated muscles.
