Abstract:
The effects of growth substances (zeranol, trenbolone) on calf muscle (pectoralis transversus) have been studied with a recent physical method (thermostimulated current spectroscopy). This method appears promising for detecting meat from calves treated with such hormonal substances. The authors have hypothesized that the observed differences are related to protein modification, the nature of which is yet unknown. A complementary work is now in progress.
