2. Culex tarsalis (some Aedes)
✔✔Pale, Soft, Exudative (PSE) Pork - ✔✔primarily caused by accelerated rate of
postmortem glycolysis resulting in low muscle pH while carcass temperature remains
high --> protein denaturation. Shifts in muscle fiber type toward higher proportions of
glycolytic fibers may help explain the incidence of PSE.
