Correlation among ratio of the rib eye muscle, carcass traits and meat tenderness.

The ratio is a measure of the rib eye to determine the muscle format and is a result of the relationship between the rib eye depth and length. The higher this relation is, the more circular the rib eye is. This measure is mainly utilized in North American abattoir systems to distinguish dairy and beef carcass. Recently, some enterprises related beef cattle production chain have associated this measure with carcass yield, meat quality and consumer acceptance of the rib eye cuts, however no scientific data has been published to establish this association.
