Bacterial growth in ground beef prepared from electrically stimulated and nonstimulated muscles

Ground beef samples prepared from electrically stimulated and nonstimulated biceps femoris and infraspinatus muscles were inoculated with Lactobacillus sp., Pseudomonas sp., Acinetobacter sp., or a mixture of Lactobacillus spp., Pseudomonas spp., Acinetobacter spp., Moraxella sp., Microbacterium thermosphactum, and Erwinia herbicola. There were no significant differences in growth of various bacteria in ground beef made from electrically stimulated and nonstimulated muscles.
