Glycolytic potential (Table 2) was not different (Pb0.05) between
control and treated samples. These results were anticipated because
paired sides should have the same GP regardless of how postmortem
metabolism occurred. Treated samples had 12.88 μg/mol more
(Pb0.05) glucose than controls. Lactate levels for treated samples
were 20.3 μg/mol less (Pb0.05) than controls. These findings agree
with previously discussed ultimate pH results. The high ultimate pH is
likely a result of very little lactic acid production. The shorter
pressurization time and higher pressure level in the current
experiment likely caused less calcium release and inactivated
glycolytic enzymes which lead to partial inhibition of glycolysis.
