SUMMARY— Solubility of intramuscular collagen was studied as affected by chronological maturity in 15 bovine longissimus dorsi and 15 semimembranosus muscles and as affected by post-mortem contraction state in the semitendinosus of 7 animals. Collagen solubility decreased significantly with each advancing maturity group in both longissimus dorsi and semimembranosus muscles. Collagen solubility was also higher (P 〈 0.05) in the longissimus dorsi than in the semimembranosus, except in the E maturity group. It was also related to panel tenderness in both muscles (r = 0.77 and 0.81 (P 〈 0.01) for longissimus dorsi and semimembranosus muscles, respectively. However, within-maturity group correlations of solubility of collagen and tenderness were low and nonsignificent.Collagen content did not differ significantly in longissimus dorsi muscles of animals of A, B, and E maturity groups; however, the semimembranosus had more collagen (P 〈 0.05) in E than in A and B maturity groups. Collagen content was not related (P 〉 0.05) to panel tenderness in either muscle (r =−0.42 and −0.48 for longissimus dorsi and semimembranosus, respectively). Neither collagen solubility nor collagen content was significantly affected by post-mortem contraction state. Furthermore, collagen solubility did not increase significantly with post-mortem aging up to ten days.
