This study was conducted to compare the carcass characteristics and meat quality characteristics of Duroc breed and crossbred pigs (Landrace ${\times}$ Yorkshire ${\times}$ Duroc, LYD). Duroc and crossbred pigs did not show differences in carcass characteristics. Crossbred pigs had higher moisture and protein content than Duroc breeds. However, Duroc breeds had a higher fat content than the crossbred pigs. In meat quality characteristics, crossbred pigs showed higher values of drip loss and cooking loss over Duroc breeds, while Duroc breeds showed higher ultimate pH value compared to that of crossbred pigs. However, there were no differences in water holding capacity and shear force value. In myoglobin content, crossbred pigs had higher content compared to that in the Duroc population. In subjective evaluation and sensory characteristics, Duroc breeds showed significantly higher scores in all categories except for tenderness over the crossbred pigs. However, in storage characteristics, Duroc breeds showed reduced tendency relative to crossbred pigs. Crossbred pigs had higher unsaturated fatty acid content than Duroc breeds did. In these results, Duroc breeds showed excellent meat quality characteristics with its higher intramuscular fat content and pH value, lower drip loss and cooking loss and higher juiciness and flavor, compared to the crossbred pigs.

The objective of this study was to investigate slaughtering performance, carcass grade, and quantitative traits of cuts according to seasonal influence by each month in pigs slaughtered in livestock processing complex (LPC) slaughterhouse in Korea, 2017. A total of 267,990 LYD ($Landrace{\times}Yorkshire{\times}Duroc$) pig data were used in this study. Results of slaughter heads, sex distribution, carcass weight, backfat thickness, grading class, total weight, and fat and lean meat percentages of each cut predicted by AutoFom III were obtained each month. The number of slaughtered pigs was the highest in early and late fall but the lowest in midsummer. Only in midsummer that the number of females was higher than that of castrates. During 2017, carcass weight was the lowest in late summer. Backfat thickness was in the range of 21-22 mm. In mid and late spring, pigs showed high 1+ grade ratio (37.05% and 36.15%, respectively). For traits of 11 cuts predicted by AutoFom III, porkbelly showed lower total weight, lean weight, and fat weight in midsummer to early fall but higher lean meat percentage compared to other seasons. Weights of deboned neck, loin, and lean meat were the highest in midfall compared to other seasons (p<0.05). In conclusion, characteristics of slaughtering, grading, and economic traits of pigs seemed to be highly seasonal. They were influenced by seasons. Results of this study could be used as basic data to develop seasonal specified management ways to improve pork production.

In this study, the dietary effects of probiotics with a liquid application system on meat quality and physicochemical characteristics of pigs were evaluated. A total of 80 Landrace${\times}$Yorkshire${\times}$Duroc (LYD) 3-way crossbred pigs (average age $175{\pm}5d$) were assigned to a conventional farm and a probiotics farm equipped with a liquid probiotics application system (40 pigs in each farm). The two treatments were: CON (diet without probiotics) and PRO (diet with probiotics). Dietary probiotics decreased shear force in the longissimus muscle compared to the control group (p<0.05). The treatment diet did not affect backfat thickness, carcass weight, meat color, cooking loss, water holding capacity (WHC), and drip loss. Dietary probiotics significantly reduced ash, salinity, and pH (at 5 and 15 d) (p<0.05). There was no significant effect on thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) values. Polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and omega fatty acids (${\omega}3$ and ${\omega}6$) were significantly (p<0.05) higher in the PRO group, whereas monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) was decreased. The free amino acid composition, serine, lysine, histidine, and arginine levels were significantly lower in the PRO than in the control group. The treatment group exhibited higher nucleotide compounds (hypoxanthine, inosine, GMP, IMP) than the controls. Also, levels of ascorbic acid and thiamin were significantly different (p<0.05), while minerals were not significantly different between the groups. In conclusion, feeding of probiotics had effects on shear force, ash, salinity, pH, PUFA, and some amino acids which related to taste and flavor without any negative effects on the pigs' carcass traits.

The vaccination for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is an effective way to control FMD. However, the injection of FMD vaccine causes abnormalities in pork meat by the incidence of lesions at the injection site. This study was conducted to investigate the inhibition effects of dietary bromelain, a natural protease derived from pineapple stems, on the incidence of lesions at the vaccination site on pigs. A total of 335 pigs (LYD [Landrace ${\times}$ Yorkshire ${\times}$ Duroc]; 7-week-old) were randomly allotted to two dietary treatments: control (basic diet) and bromelain treatment (diet supplemented with bromelain 1 kg/ton). The injection of FMD vaccine was conducted on 56- and 84-day-old pigs. Pigs with the bromelain treatment were fed a diet supplemented with bromelain for 14 days from 5 days before the vaccine injection. After slaughtering the pigs, the number of carcasses that had abnormal meat at the injection site of the vaccine and the amount of abnormal meat, discarded meat, and trimmings were recorded. Pork from the bromelain treated pigs had a lower incidence of abnormal meat caused by vaccine injection as well as a lower amount of abnormal meat, discarded meat, and trimmings than those of the control (p < 0.05). Our result suggests that dietary bromelain could improve the quality of pork meat by inhibiting incidence of lesions at the vaccine injection site.

본 연구는 비육돈 268두를 대상으로 13번 염색체 중 POU1F1 intron 3영역의 유전자 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism(SNP)은 Msp I 제한효소에 의해서 구분된다. 직접 제작한 Primer로 POU1F1 유전자 중 intron 3영역을 증폭할 수 있도록 제작하였고, 823bp의 증폭산물을 기대할 수 있었다. 그 SNP 유전자형을 3개 군으로 분류하여 빈도 추정과 함께 육질관련 형질과의 연관성을 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. POU1F1 SNP의 DD 유전자형은 84.33%로 가장 높은 출현율을 보인 반면에 CC 유전자형은 0.75%로 매우 낮게 나타났다. 대립유전자 D 빈도는 0.918로 매우 높게 출현하였으나, C 빈도는 0.082로 매우 낮게 출현하였다. Hardy-Weinberg 법칙에 따른 적합도 검정에서는 유의성 없이(p>0.05) 유전적 평형을 이루고 있는 집단임을 알 수 있었다. CD와 DD 유전자형 집단에서 등지방두께, 도체중, Hunter a 및 b값, 그리고 pH에서는 모두 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았으나, Hunter $L^*$값은 CD(37.26) 보다 DD(40.15) 유전자형 개체군에서 짙게 나타났고(p<0.05), 육색도판에 의한 육색은 DD(3.91) 보다 CD(5.09) 유전자형 개체에서 짙게 나타났다((p<0.001). 따라서 이러한 POU1F1 유전자의 SNP 유전자형은 돼지의 성장이나 도체관련 형질과의 연관성을 더욱 깊이 있게 탐색하여 명확한 구명으로 우량 돈육 생산을 위한 DNA marker로 활용되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

The current study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary chitosan-alginate-Fe(II) complex (CAFC) supplementation on carcass and meat qualities of pig m. longissimus during chiller ageing. One hundred and twenty-two LYD (Landrace${\times}$Yorkshire${\times}$Duroc) pigs were sampled from an industrial population. Seventy-four pigs (32 gilts and 42 barrows) were administered 3 ml of dietary supplementation of CAFC per day from 25 to 70 days of age, while the remaining 48 pigs (20 gilts and 28 barrows) were fed the same commercial feeding regime without the supplementation. For assessing the dietary effects on pH, objective meat color, cooking loss, water-holding capacity (WHC), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and fatty acid composition during ageing, 20 barrows (10 of each treatment) were randomly sampled, and aged for 3, 7, 12, 16, 20 and 25 days in a $1^{\circ}C$ chiller. The results showed that CAFC-fed pigs required approximately 10 fewer feeding days than the control group. Furthermore, the treatment resulted in greatly higher carcass grade whereby the grade A was increased by approximately 35% and 7% for gilts and barrows, respectively. The treatment had no significant effect (p>0.05) on pH, meat color and WHC during ageing. On the other hand, the CAFC-fed pigs showed significantly (p<0.05) lower TBARS values from 20 days of storage. In addition, the sum of unsaturated fatty acids for the treated group was significantly (p<0.05) higher than that for the control group after the storage time. This implied that CAFC supplementation could reduce the formation of free radicals in fatty acids (i.e., lipid oxidation). The treatment also significantly (p<0.05) retarded VBN formation during ageing, indicating a significant reduction in protein degradation. However, as there was no difference in pH between the two groups, the result raised a possibility that antibacterial activity of the CAFC alone could cause reduction in the formation of TBARS and VBN. In this regard, although the treatment effectively slowed down the formation of TBARS and TBA during chiller ageing, it was not resolved whether that was associated with the direct effect of the antioxidant function of chitosan and/or alginate, or a consequence of their antibacterial functions.

본 실험은 비육돈 사료 중 오메가-3와 오메가-6 지방산의 증가가 돈육 등심 내 지방산 조성과 돈육의 품질특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보기 위하여 수행하였다. 사료 중 유지의 조성은 대조구(우지5%), 아마인유(5%), 홍화씨유(5%) 및 혼합유(아마인유2.5%+홍화씨유2.5%)를 배합하여 비육기 삼원교잡돼지(LYD)에 4주간 급여하였다. 돼지 등심의 지방산 조성은 아마인유처리구(T1)에서 linolenic acid의 함량이 $2.35{\pm}0.21%$로 유의적으로 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 홍화씨유처리구(T2)에서 linoleic acid의 함량이 $35.26{\pm}1.91%$로 가장 높게 나타났고, Oleic acid의 함량은 대조구(C)에서 $21.59{\pm}1.85%$로 가장 높았으나 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다(p>0.05). 전체 다가불포화지방산의 양은 홍화씨유처리구(T2)가 $47.80{\pm}1.29%$로 다른 처리구보다 유의적으로 가장 높았고(p<0.05), n-6:n-3 비율은 $11.57{\pm}0.90$으로 아마인유처리구(T1)가 가장 낮은 값을 보였던 반면, 홍화씨유급여구(T2)는 오메가-6 지방산의 함량이 높아져서 $37.56{\pm}12.51$로 유의적으로 가장 높았다(p<0.05). 돈육의 pH와 명도, 적색도는 시험유지급여에 따른 변화가 없었으나, 황색도는 홍화씨유처리구(T2)에서 다른 처리구에 비하여 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.05). 또한 보수력과 가열감량에 있어서도 시험유지의 급여에 따른 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않아(p>0.05) 다가불포화지방산의 함량이 높은 시험유지의 급여가 돈육의 육질특성에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 볼 때 식물성유지의 급여를 통해 육질에 미치는 영향을 최소화하여 소비자들로부터 각광받고 있는 오메가-3 지방산의 함량을 증가시킬 수 있음을 확인하였으나, n-6:n-3 비율이 권장되는 값에 비하여 높게 나타났으므로(11.57:1) 추후 이 비율을 낮추는 사양기술에 대한 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
