Livestock Products Technology is an integrated field comprising of food chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology and allied subjects that deals with all aspects right from farm to plate. The manual on Fresh Meat Technology is designed to fulfil the requirements of postgraduate students and Ph.D. scholars of Livestock Products Technology and other allied fields as per ICAR course curriculi. This manual has been prepared to meet the needs of students and research scholars dealing with fresh meat and would be a useful guide to them. The authors have made sincere efforts to produce compiled and complete technical information related to various techniques used for assessment of fresh meat quality in this manual. The chapters have been simplified and streamlined with updated technologies to make it simpler for the students/researchers involved. The manual covers various analytical techniques related to meat microbiology, physicochemical quality evaluation of fresh meat, proximate analysis, muscle fibre characteristics, cutting and fabrication of meat, sensory evaluation of fresh meat etc.

Dr. Serlene Tomar graduated from the College of Veterinary Science & Animal Husbandry, MHOW, JNKVV, Jabalpur in the year 2008 and did her post-graduation in the discipline of Livestock Products Technology, from College of Veterinary Science, GADVASU, Ludhiana in the year 2010. She obtained Ph.D. from Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Bareilly as an in-service candidate in 2018.
