Learning Time (Acquire New Knowledge)


In slaughtering any food animals, health condition probably plays the
essential factor in producing wholesome and good quality meat. The food
animal must be healthy and free from diseases transferable to other animals,
including men such as tuberculosis and anthrax.

Aspects to Consider
 The Health Aspect
A healthy animal is quick, smart appearance, and has well-disposed body
reflexes. Moved steadily with ease, not irregularly or with difficulty and when
at rest, animals should not be motionless. Animals in an advanced state of
pregnancy must be spared from slaughtering. Ordinary signs of ill-health
should be considered such as:
a. Abnormal conditions like a high breathing rate, high temperature, and
fever.

b. Foamy or frothy mouth

c. Diarrhea

d. Discharges of various sorts from the body.

 The Quality Aspect


Maturity does not necessarily mean very old animals. It means a fully
developed animal. This depends on nutrition and genetic make-up of the
animals. Poultry must be well fleshed mature and fully grown bird.
Meatiness
a. Heavier animal likely dress higher (well-fattened animals).
b. Other factors affecting lower carcass yield includes:
- Thick skin, pelt or a heavy cover of hair over the body.
- Amount of “fill” of the gut is high.
Confirmation
 Animals that are short-necked and short-legged mean meaty, round-
bodied, and good quality meat.
 Thin and leggy animals are poor-fleshed with bones jutting out.
Transport of livestock and poultry is the most stressful and injurious
stage in the chain of operations between farm and slaughterhouse. Poor
transportation can have serious deleterious effects on the welfare of
livestock and can lead to significant loss of quality and production.
Effects of transport and movement include:
Stress - leading to DFD (dark, firm, and dry) beef and Pale soft exudative
(PSE) pork.
Bruising - the most insidious and significant production waste in the meat
industry.
Trampling - this occurs when animals go down due to slippery floors or
overcrowding.
Heart failure - occurs mostly in pigs when overfed prior to loading and
transportation.

Heatstroke - pigs are susceptible to high environmental temperatures and


humidity.
Suffocation - this usually follows on trampling.
Dehydration - animals subject to long-distance travel without proper watering
will suffer weight loss and may die
Injuries - broken legs and horns
Fighting - this occurs mostly when a vehicle loaded with pig stops, or
amongst horned and polled cattle.
Physically fit animals must be conveyed direct to the slaughtering site
for rest. At the abattoir entrance, written permit from the Director of the
Bureau of Animal Industry or his/her authorized representative should be
presented. Those waiting their turn are to be held in a holding pen and ante-
mortem evaluation should be conducted. Ante-mortem is conducted prior to
slaughter. Post-mortem is conducted after the slaughter of animals.
Effects of Stress on Meat Quality
Environmental conditions which can cause stress in animals include
extremes in temperature, humidity, light, sound, and confinement. Other
stressors are excitement, fatigue, pain, hunger, and thirst. Movement to
unfamiliar surroundings can also cause stress in animals. Physiological
changes, including changes in heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature,
and respiration are due to stress experienced by the animal. Several stress
hormones are released into the blood stream including epinephrine and
norepinephrine.
An animal which has not been stressed will have normal levels of
glycogen in its body. When the animal is slaughtered and exsanguinated, the
metabolic process continues, however there is no longer circulating oxygen.
Without the presence of oxygen, the breakdown of glycogen/glucose results
in a buildup of lactic acid which then causes a drop in pH of the meat.
If there is a great lactic acid buildup before slaughter, the pH of the
meat declines too quickly after slaughter and a Pale, Soft, Exudative (PSE)
condition may develop. As suggested by the name, the affected meat is pale,
soft, and fluid may drip from the surface. Most often noted in carcasses of
pigs suffering from Porcine Stress Syndrome (PSS). PSE condition is a quality
problem most commonly affecting pork but which also affects beef, lamb,
and poultry.
Prevention of Stress-Related Meat Conditions
Proper handling of animals before and during slaughter can greatly
reduce their discomfort and stress. This includes proper feeding and rest as
well as the use of proper techniques for moving and transporting animals.
Fasting is recommended prior to slaughtering. A well-fasted animal
will have the following benefits:
It facilitates easiness in eviscerating the carcass and cleaning of the
digestive entrails. It facilitates thorough bleeding thus extend the shelf-life of
the resulting meat. It tends to increase the dressing percentage and savings
in the cost of feeds.

Step By Step Procedure in Slaughtering Avian Species

1. STUNNING (as applied in large dressing plants)

This can be done by electric shock or destroying the brain


(decerebration). Decerebration is the removal of the connections between the
hindbrain (brain stem) and the spinal cord, which results in the elimination of
cerebral brain signal integration.

2. BLEEDING

This is the act of removing the blood from the body of the animal. There
are several ways to bleed the bird, namely:

 Barrel Method – Severing the neck or chopping the


head
 Kosher Method – Cutting the throat outside (cutting the
jugular vein).

3. SCALDING
 There are 3 methods of scalding poultry depending upon the
species or age of the bird:

a. Hard or Hot Scalding


 The most common method which consists of dipping
up and down in hot water between 150-190 oF for a few
seconds to loosen the feathers.
b. Semi-Scalding

 Adopted for young birds and for automation with


scalding temperature varying from 125-132 oF
immersed for 20-40 seconds.

c. Sub-Scalding
 This consists of dipping up and down the bird in the
scalding water heated to a temperature of 138-140 oF
for several seconds.

Figure 9. Scalding

4. PLUCKING
 This refers to the removal of the feathers following
scalding.
 It should be done rapidly and neatly to leave a clean
skin.

5. SINGEING
 The process of passing the carcass over the flame to remove
filoplume (very tiny feathers).
 Hold the bird over a direct, smokeless flame, then, grasp the neck in
one hand, the feet in the other and turn the bird quickly so as not to
give an oily appearance to the skin.
 Spread each wing to remove the hairs that are present underneath.

Figure 12. Singeing Using Blow Torch

6. EVISCERATION
 This refers to the removal of the viscera done by adopting the
following steps:
 Cut the head, slit the skin on the neck large enough to
pull out the trachea and esophagus.

 Carefully loosen the crop and windpipe (trachea) from


the binding membranes which surrounds it.

 Make a carving around the vent.

 Finally, make a slit on the abdominal cavity to remove


the visceral organs.

 Pull the visceral organs out of the body cavity

 Separate the liver carefully and remove the gall bladder.

 Separate the gizzard and remove the contents of it.

 The heart and spleen can also be recovered, and other


entrails can be utilized for other purposes.

WASHING AND CHILLING/ FREEZING


 Thoroughly wash the carcass and chill at a temperature
of 34 to 36 oF before subjecting to freezing.

 Freeze the carcass after chilling if made to be stored


long.

Methods of Determining Dressing Percentage in Avian

1. BLOOD AND FEATHER DRESSED


 This is also referred to as New York’s dressed chicken.

Sometimes they call this as the Lazy Man’s Method of Dressing because only
the blood and feathers are removed.

Formula:
Weight of N.Y. Dressed Carcass
%DP = --------------------------------------- X 100
Live Weight

2. EVISCERATED OF FULL DRESSED


 The head, feathers, entrails, and feet are removed
before computing the dressing percentage.
