| Abstract | Samples of m. longissimus thoracis (LT) muscle were randomly collected from 70 Omani beef cattle 1 h after slaughter between August 2001 and July 2002 in the Muscat Municipality central slaughterhouse to investigate the effect of seasonal parameters on meat quality during the hot and cool seasons of Oman. The collection period (12 months) was divided into two seasons according to ambient temperatures and relative humidity and termed: Cool Season (November-March with average temperature of 21.2±1.40 °C and 57.9±1.61% relative humidity) and Hot Season (April-October with average temperature of 34.3±1.67 °C and 48.8±7.57% relative humidity). The season had a significant effect on meat quality characteristics of the LT muscle. Muscles collected during the hot season had significantly (P<0.001) higher ultimate pH values (6.24) with significantly (P<0.001) lower Warner-Bratzler (WB) shear force values (10.12) than those collected during the cool season (5.54 and 15.58). In these hot-boned samples, there was a linear relationship between ultimate pH and WB shear values. Cooking loss was significantly (P<0.001) higher for cool season samples (26.01%) than from hot season samples (19.75%). Beef from the hot season group had significantly (P<0.001) darker meat than that of the cold season group, based on L* (31.45 vs 35.58), a* (18.53 vs 23.19) and b* (4.16 vs 6.40) colour measurements. There was a linear relationship between ultimate pH and cooking loss, L*, a* and b*. These results indicated that heat stress (>30 °C) lead to physiological stress in beef cattle, which in turn increased muscle ultimate pH and influenced related meat quality characteristics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
