weight loss during aging than both D and SB aging (2.90% versus 15.56% and 13.48%, respectively).Warren and Kastner (1992)also reported higher weight loss with D aging as compared with W aging. Similarly, Ahnströmet al. (2006) concluded that Daging resulted in higher weight loss than SB aging for steaks aged for 21 d. However, De Geer et al. (2009) reported no difference (P>0.05) in weight loss between D aged and SB aged steaks.
