Abstract: The variations and mutual relationships of bio-impedance value, pH value and water loss rate of bovine muscles near freezing point were investigated. The results revealed that bio-impedance value, pH value and water loss rate of bovine muscles change obviously after 10 days of slaughter, and the corresponding trendlines of the three indexs were plotted; Correlativities between bio-impedance value and value pH, value pH and water loss rate, water loss rate and bio-impedance are significant (α =0.05).

Key words: bovine muscles, bio-impedance, pH, water loss rate, relationship
