Effects of slaughter weight on carcass characteristics, meat quality, and metabolomics profiling in the longissimus dorsi muscle of Tianfu finishing pigs

In order to investigate the effect of slaughter weight (SW) on carcass characteristics and meat quality, we measured the carcass characteristics, meat quality, and amino acid metabolomics characteristics of longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle from Tianfu finishing (TF) pigs. Based on SW, 13 pigs were divi...
