Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed the composition (fat, moisture, nitrogen, ash, collagen, calcium, iron, and purines) of mechanically recovered meats (MRM) from different species: beef, lamb, pork, chicken, and turkey.
  • The findings showed significant variability in the composition of MRM based on meat species, the presence of bones with marrow, the type of recovery machine (Yieldmaster vs. Protecon), and different operating conditions.
  • MRM produced by the Yieldmaster machine generally had higher ash and calcium levels compared to Protecon, while operating conditions had minimal impact on chicken meat but caused some variation in turkey and pork compositions.
