Meat color is highly critical to fresh beef marketability as it influences consumer purchase decisions at the point-of-sale. Longissimus lumborum (LL) is an economically important and color-stable muscle in beef hindquarter which has been extensively studied with respect to color biochemistry. Previous research indicated that sarcoplasmic proteome influences fresh beef color. Post-mortem aging employed to improve beef tenderness and palatability can influence color as well as the sarcoplasmic proteome. Our objective was to examine color attributes and sarcoplasmic proteome profile of beef LL during wet-aging, and to identify potential biomarkers for beef color attributes.
