Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Two studies were designed to test the effects of stunning method and time interval between stunning and bleeding on blood splashing in pork muscle. In study I, 82 market weight barrows and gilts were randomly assigned to one of two treatments using captive bolt stunning with either a short (18.5 sec) or a delayed (144.7 sec) time interval to bleeding. More (P.05) for the captive bolt-short, electric-short and electric-delayed time groups.; Swine Day, Manhattan, KS, November 11, 1982
