METHOD FOR THE ELIMINATION OF THE BOAR ODOUR FROM MEAT

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the complete or virtually complete elimination of the "boar odour" from meat from slaughtered male pigs by immunising the male pigs against the GnRH hormone during the rearing period by means of a passive immunisation with GnRH antibodies. This passive immunisation is advantageously carried out as a single immunisation about 2-4 weeks before slaughter of the male pigs.
