Effects of pre-slaughter transport stress on the μ-calpain, caspase-3, and critical cytoskeleton proteins of pork LT muscle at 3 d of postmortem aging, (A) representative immunoblot bands and (B) intensity of target proteins and caspase-3 activity. “*” indicate a significant difference (p < 0.05), “**” indicate a significant difference (p < 0.01), and “ns” mean no significant difference. TR: three-hour transport followed by three-hour resting treatment; T: three-hour transport treatment.
