본 연구는 사육면적에 따른 비육후기 28개월령 비거세 한우육의 냉장중 PH, 보수력, 지방산 조성 및 전자코에 의한 향기 패턴 비교를 구명하고자 실시하였다. 도축전 6개월 동안 사육면적(9, 18, 27 $m^2$)에 따라 공시하고 도축후 등심(M. longissimus) 부위를 $4{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$에 9일 동안 저장하면서 실험하였다. pH는 저장 3일까지 27 $m^2$에서 사육한 한우육이 9, 18 $m^2$에서 사육한 한우육보다 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.05). 사후강직후 48시간의 드립 감량은 27 $m^2$에서 사육한 한우육이 9, 18 $m^2$에서 사육한 한우육보다 유의적으로 낮았다(p<0.05). 지방산 조성에서 C20:5n3(EPA)과 PUFA n3 지방산 총량은 27 $m^2$에서 사육한 한우육이 9 $m^2$에서 사육한 한우육보다 유의 적으로 높았으며(p<0.05), PUFA n6/n3 비율은 낮았다(p<0.05). 전자코의 PCA에 의한 향기 패턴은 저장기간 동안 사육면적에 따른 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 27 $m^2$에서 사육한 비거세 한우육의 보수력 및 PUFA n3 지방산 함량이 가장 높았으며, PUFA n6/n3 비율은 가장 낮았다.

The present survey was conducted to investigate effects of weaning age on market weights of steers and calf mortality in Hanwoo. Eight hundred and sixty-two Hanwoo cow-calf operations from all nine provinces were surveyed via personal interviews. The number of farms categorized by herd (heifer plus cow) size were 188, 364, 227 and 83 for <20 heads, 20~49 heads, 50~99 heads and >100 heads, respectively. Approximate 40% of farms surveyed weaned calves at three months of age. The percentages of farms weaning calves over three months of age were 53.5%, 37.5%, 43.7% and 39.0% for <20 heads, 20~49 heads, 50~99 heads and >100 heads, respectively. The herd size did not affect market weights of Hanwoo steers. However weaning age was negatively correlated to carcass weight of Hanwoo steers, showing that as weaning age decreased, carcass weights of Hanwoo steers increased. The average calf mortality was 5.6% and the herd size did not affect calf mortality. But weaning age was shown to be positively correlated to calf mortality and the rate of diarrhea that caused calf death, suggesting that as weaning age decreased, calf mortality and the rate of diarrhea decreased. Overall, the results of present study suggest that a decrease of calf weaning age in Hanwoo can increase the profit of Hanwoo cow-calf operations by increasing carcass weight of Hanwoo steers and by decreasing calf mortality.

The current study was conducted to compare the growth performance and physico-chemical characteristics of Hanwoo bulls and steers of different slaughtering ages. Thirty-six Hanwoo (average age, 13-mon) were allocated into either a bull or steer group (18 animals/group). Each group was sub-divided into 26-, 28-, and 30-mon-old age groups (six animals/group). Surgical castration was performed in the steer group immediately after the experimental groups were assigned. Growth performance of the animals, as well as carcass characteristics and fatty acid composition of M. longissimus dorsi were determined. Cold carcass weights increased as carcass slaughtering age increased in both Hanwoo bulls and steers (p<0.05). Backfat thickness was thickest (p<0.05) in 28-mon-old Hanwoo bulls and 30-mon-old steer, and the M. longissimus dorsi area was widest (p< 0.05) in 28-mon-old Hanwoo bulls and steers. Marbling score, cooking loss, and water holding capacity (WHC) were higher (p<0.05) in 30-mon-old Hanwoo bulls and steers as slaughtering age increased. The shear force value was highest in 30-mon-old Hanwoo bulls and 26-mon-old Hanwoo steers compared to that in other groups. The unsaturated fatty acid composition in M. longissimus dorsi was significantly (p<0.05) higher in 28- and 30-mon-old Hanwoo bulls and steers than that in other groups. The results suggest that castration, even at late stages of Hanwoo development, improved beef carcass quality grade, and that no difference in beef quality grade had occurred (marbling score and WHC) in 28- and 30-mon-old slaughtering age Hanwoo steers.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of the organic feed on weight gain, feed conversion rate, and carcass characteristics of Hanwoo steers. Three feeding treatments(T1 : rice straw and commercial concentrates, T2 : organic hay and concentrates, T3 : organic corn silage and concentrates) for 22 months (from 6 to 28 months) were used. As a result, weight gain was not significantly different among treatments throughout this study. Also T1 tended to improve weight gain and daily weight gain without significance. The percentage of meat quality grade over the first grads ($1,\;1^+,\;1^{++}$) were 50% in the carcass of Hanwoo steers fed T1 and T2, and 70% fed T3, respectively. T2 and T3 tended to improve marbling score and oleic acid content.

Twenty four Hanwoo steers(average body weight=550.4±42.8kg) were used in the experiment to determine the effects of supplementing coated vitamin C+E with cottonseed on meat quality, meat color and carcass grade in Hanwoo steers fed brewers grain and cracked corn-based fermented feedstuff. Steers were randomly assigned to feeding groups of fermented feedstuff without any supplements(T1) and fermented feedstuff supplemented with coated vitamin C+E and cottonseed(T2). Ether extract content of longissimus dorsi was higher in T2 than in T1(p<0.05). Yellowness and hue-angle among surface colors of longissimus dorsi was lower(p<0.05) in T2 than in T1 but lightness was higher(p<0.05) in T2 than in T1. Ratio of yield grade ‘A’ was higher from T2 group than from T1 group. Marbling score was higher in T2 than in T1(p<0.05). Present results indicate that supplementation of coated vitamin C+E and cottonseed to brewers grain and cracked corn-based fermented feedstuff has positive effects on ether extract content, color, marbling score of longissimus dorsi in Hanwoo steers.
