Popis: The way the pH falls post-slaughter has an impact on meat quality. Pork longissimus muscles (n=48) were sorted in fast- (FG) (n=15) and normal glycolysing (NG) (n=33) muscles according to the post-slaughter pH 45 min values (FG6.0). FG muscles (5.84±0.04) compared with NG muscles (6.27±0.04) were accompanied with higher temperature, electrical conductivity, lightness and yellowness, and reduced grill loss and shear force values (P
