4. โข Conventional definitions of quality are based on
the inherent or perceived physical characteristics
of meat.
โข For most consumers they determine the meatโs
appeal, acceptability, utility and, ultimately, its
value.
Meat quality
5. Conventional meat quality
โข Consumersโ perception of meat quality is wide
and subjective
โข This perception reflects among others:
๏ผ regional and national differences,
๏ผ ethnicity and culture,
๏ผ political and economic considerations,
๏ผ individual beliefs and ideologies, and
๏ผ package labelling information and context
8. โข Spirituality and ideology influence peopleโs attitude towards
the killing of animals and the consumption of meat.
โข Consideration of the source, life and death of the animal adds
another dimension to meat quality - one that cannot be
evaluated by science or measured by instruments.
โข Thus, in addition to all the conventional terms used to convey
the qualities of meat, โspiritual qualityโ is of foundational
importance for faith groups.
Spiritual meat quality
9. โข Halal is a quality cue that is very difficult or impossible to
evaluate with the current methods.
โข Therefore, trust is very important throughout the supply chain
for the acceptability of halal meat.
โข Thus, sound traceability and involving those that Islam say can
be trusted in the supply chain are necessary for maintaining
the spiritual quality of halal meat .
Halal credence quality
10. Industrial halal meat production
โข Halal livestock
โข Slaughtered alive in accordance with Islamic shariah
โข Complete death before any further
workup/processing
โข Humane and considerate treatment of livestock
(minimum stress and pain prior to and during
slaughter)
โข Safety of the slaughterer and all concerned
12. Pre-slaughter stunning
Purpose of stunning
โ To render the animal insensible to pain
โ To minimise fear, panic and other adverse effects
associated with slaughter
โ Hygiene
โ Worker safety
13. Halal consumers divide on stunning
1) Those who totally reject stunning as non-Halal compliant
2) Those who accept stunning regardless of the method used
3) Those who accept stunning but are not sure which method
is Halal compliant and want assurance in the following:
- Is the stunned animal alive before it was slaughtered?
- Is the stunning painful to the animal?
- Does it affect the wholesomeness of the meat?
14. Head-only electrical stunning and associated processes
โข The animal is restrained in the head bail that
contains electrodes which contact the animals
head behind the ears and the tip of the nose.
โข The animal is stunned across the brain with an
electric current of 1.5-2.5 A, 400V a.c. for 2-4
seconds.
โข The animal is dropped onto a cradle or moving
table and the Halal cut is performed as soon as
practicable but usually within 10-15 seconds of
stunning.
โข Electro-immobilisation electrodes contact the
animal between the nose and the anus and power
is turned on (80-90 V d.c., 300mAmp,10 ms pulse
at 15 pulses/sec).
โข Electro-immobilisation is allowed to time out (15-
30 seconds).

16. Potential halal pre-stunning methods
โข Post-slaughter stun
โข Reversible head-to-body electrical stunning
โข Interferential current stunning
โข Transcranial Magnetic stunning
โข Microwave energy stunning
โข Local or general anaesthesia with natural agents
โข Modified atmosphere and Low Atmospheric Pressure stunning
17. Recoverable head-to-body electrical stunning
โข Using high frequencies
(1-2A, 1000-2000 HZ, 350-500 V, 4 s)
โข Current NZ MIA study (AgResearch Ltd, Massey University, FIANZ, UPM,
Jarvis Engineering Ltd)
18. Recoverable head-to-body stunning
โข A current study comparing the use of high frequency
head-to-body and low frequency head-only electrical
stunning
โข Bobby calves, cattle, sheep, goats will be minimally
anaesthetised, stunned using the two methods and
EEG recordings done
โข Recovery following stunning and behavioural studies
carried out
19. Interferential current stunning
De Domenico, G. (1982). The Australian Journal of Physiotherapy, 28(3), 14โ18;
Johnson and Tabasam (2003). Physical Therapy, 83(3), 208-223
โข Used in acute and chronic pain management including
electro-narcosis and electro-anaesthesia
โข Interferential Current is based on the summation of two
sinusoid alternating currents with their waveforms
slightly offset or out of phase
โข This โmixingโ of the signals results in a low-frequency
current that consists of cyclical modulation of the
amplitude which is dependent on the difference of
frequencies of the two carrier signals
โข When the signals are in phase, the carrier signals sum
to a value able to stimulate the tissue. When out of
phase, no stimulation results.

19.2mA current amplitude
20. Transcranial magnetic stunning (TMS)
โข Used in psychiatric therapy to induce seizures in patients
โข Intense magnetic field is generated by passing a large
amount of current through a copper coil. The coil is
positioned close to the head so that the brain lies within
this magnetic field to affect a stun.
โข Tried on 25 broilers with 20 successfully completed
โข TMS at 35 or 50 Hz; 250-300 pulses; 80-51% power; 5 s
โข EEG traces showed evidence of insensibility and a
dominance of theta and delta wave
โข Unconsciousness lasted for 15 to 20 s

21. Microwave Energy Stunning (MES)
Small et al. (2013) Animal welfare 22, 291-296.
โข MES has been used in euthanizing laboratory animals
by raising the brain temperature by 8ยฐC
โข Four sheep were exposed to 4 kW of energy at 922
MHz for between 5 and 20 s. Temperature profiles,
EEG and histology of the brain and onset of recovery
following stunning were determined
โข Application of microwave energy caused rapid
increases in brain temperature within 10-20 s to 43ยฐC
(a point above which insensibility would be expected
to occur)
โข EEG showed high amplitude activity similar to the
epileptiform activity induced by the current practice
of electrical stunning
Patent International Application No. PCT/AU2011/000527
22. Local or general anesthesia with natural agents
โข Slaughter stress and pain can be reduced by local anaesthesia using the
commercial anaesthetics
โข Residue in meat would render such application commercially unviable
โข A commercial food-grade fish anaesthetic with iso-eugenol as the active
ingredient (AQUI-Sโข) has been approved for use in many countries
โข This has been used to successfully anaesthetize fish including Atlantic cod
and salmon
โข The availability of natural anaesthetics for fish raises the prospects of
others suitable for use in local anaesthesia of red meat animals prior to
slaughter
24. Animal Welfare affects meatโs spiritual
quality

Environment
..but this doesnโt get us all the
wayโฆ
Our beliefs and ethics also
have an important role to play
in deciding what is acceptable

Question: do you agree with the statement:
โMeat from animal with high welfare isโฆ..โ
27. Conclusion
โข A substantial quantity of meat is produced around the world
using industrial halal methods and associated processes.
โข The conventionally-defined attributes of meat quality are
demanded by halal and conventional consumers alike.
โข additional attribute of โspiritual qualityโ is paramount for
those who consume halal for religious reasons.
โข Consumers are increasingly associating meat quality with
animal welfare
28. Conclusion contโฆ.
โข Head-only pre-slaughter stunning or no-stunning are commonly
used in halal meat production
โข There are a number of technologies currently being trialled with
potential to reduce quality defects associated with stunning when
they become commercially available.
โข Research to produce technologies and processes to harmonise
the religious and the temporal requirements for the production
of halal meat of high spiritual and conventional quality is
continuing.
