Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Comparative Rate of Decomposition in Drawn and Undrawn Market Poultry

Second retailer's sample. - All of the birds were in bad condition, dark colored, and repulsive in appearance. The necks of the full drawn were dark and green here and there. There was stickiness under the wings. The skin around the incision was blackened and the body cavity inside was dark. There was a small amount of fluid present. A sour and even putrid odor was present. The Boston-drawn fowls had both heads and necks green struck; were sticky under wings and thighs, and there was a distinctly unpleasant odor from the interior of the body cavity. The wire drawn fowls were brightest in color. The heads were blackened, the necks slightly discolored, and the flesh was very soft. They were sticky under the wings. One fowl was green struck around the vent. The undrawn fowls had a putrid odor around the head. The wings and thighs were sticky. The skin was poor in color and the flesh had darkened. The body cavity was in good condition but had a decidedly stale smell.

Excerpt from The Comparative Rate of Decomposition in Drawn and Undrawn Market Poultry

During the season of 1909-1910 a series of studies was made to determine the relative rate of decomposition in undrawn poultry as compared with that from which the viscera had been either completely or partially removed. The conditions of the experiments were strictly commercial. That is, the fowls were killed and dressed by the regular employees of a poultry packing house; they were shipped in the usual commercial one-dozen-to-the-box package in a car-lot of dressed poultry. They were received by a wholesaler and handled side by side with his stock. They went to the retailer when he purchased fowls from the same car-lot and were kept in his shop for the period which the market happened to require for their sale. Observations of the usual sort, commonly called "inspections," were made in the packing house, at the end of the railroad haul, when the fowls left the commission man, and during retailing. Thermographs accompanied the shipment from the time the newly killed chickens entered the chillroom in the packing house until the last sample left the retailer. Descriptions of surroundings and records of the practices and vicissitudes of marketing were kept in full detail.

Visual inspections vary with the individuals making them, even those by the same person differing somewhat from day to day. Neither have we any accurate method of stating the findings based on the color of the skin, the odor, etc. To obviate this difficulty, and to establish a series of observations acquired by a uniform method and expressed in accordance with scientific usage, each sample was subjected to an examination in the laboratory.
