Causes, implications, and methods of determination. rev. colombiana cienc. anim. Recia [online]. 2023, vol.15, n.1, e01. Epub 20-Feb-2024.

Objective.
Review the cause, consequences, and assessment methods in DFD beef to contribute to the knowledge of this meat anomaly and analyze alternatives to face.
Development.
The DFD beef shows up when the stock of muscular glycogen is not enough to decline muscular pH 24 h to the optimal point after being slaughtered. Several factors related to beef DFD including animal and environmental, are studied; likewise, asses' methods are revised.
Final considerations.
Handling before and after slaughter are a keystone to DFD presence. Therefore, knowing the relationship among factors related to DFD and the assessment methods could diminish the DFD presence in the beef value chain.
