Etude morpho-anatomique du primysium (Mthodes de description et d'valuation)

Abstract

a secondary network which is only visible as a whole at a rather high magnification. The organization of both connective tissue networks were defined by considering various morphological traits, and objective and subjective methods were suggested for their appraisal. The reference scales used were illustrated. The proposed methods would have various useful applications : systematic studies of perimysium of different muscles, influence of biological factors of variation (age, sex, genetics...) and, in the case of meat animals, consequences on meat texture and tenderness.
