Zinc and myoglobin content in muscles from pigs were studied under various conditions. Zinc concentration was considerably higher in red than in white muscles. In muscles, where the metabolic pattern changes from glycolytic to oxidative during the period from birth to weaning, a simultaneous increase in zinc content was seen. A significant positive correlation exists between myoglobin and zinc content under normal conditions. However, while myoglobin concentration decreases due to iron deficiency anaemia no changes occur in zinc content. It is concluded that no functional link seems to exist between zinc metabolism and myoglobin synthesis in porcine muscles.
在不同条件下研究了猪肌肉中的锌和肌红蛋白含量。红色肌肉中的锌浓度明显高于白色肌肉。在从出生到断奶期间代谢模式从糖酵解转变为氧化的肌肉中,锌含量同时增加。在正常情况下,肌红蛋白与锌含量之间存在显著的正相关。然而,当由于缺铁性贫血导致肌红蛋白浓度降低时,锌含量没有变化。得出的结论是,猪肌肉中锌代谢与肌红蛋白合成之间似乎不存在功能联系。
