The review briefly summarizes the data on the development of proteomic technologies that became actively used in studies of the muscular proteins of farm animals used in the meat industry in 2006-2013. It has been noted that the main research trends are connected with the detection of changes in muscle proteins during post-mortem autolysis and the search for species-specific and other protein biomarkers. Particular publications regarding the development of methods based on proteomic technologies for monitoring the state of muscle proteins are considered. According to the analyzed data, we can conclude that the field is promising for the solution of a number of pressing problems in.applied biochemistry.
