Beef tenderness is a primary quality feature that defines the consumer’s perception of the product quality. Therefore definition of chemical characteristics that contribute to variation in tenderness within a specific USDA grade can help refine our understanding of meat tenderness. The objective of this experiment was to identify novel protein markers for tenderness in Longissimus dorsi sarcoplasmic fractions utilizing proteomics and a valuable library of beef samples.
