PRE-STUNNING OR STUNNING OF ANIMALS WITH A COMBINATION OF AIR (O2), CO2 AND N2O
When stunning animals e.g. by CO2-stunning aversive reactions may be seen among the animals as a reaction to the high concentration of CO2. To avoid the aversive reactions animals can be pre-stunned before being final-stunned and perhaps killed or slaughtered when stunned. Pre-stunning of animals may be performed with a combination of gas for pre-stunning comprising at least air and/or O2 together with CO2 e.g. in a concentration below 40%, at least air and/or O2 together with N2O, or at least air and/or O2 together with N2O and CO2, where CO2 may bi in a concentration below 40%. For larger animals such as pigs pre-stunning is performed for less than 60 seconds. A stunning system may comprise means for pre-stunning of animals before performing a final-stunning and may include gas storage for re-use of the pre-stunning gas.

A rapid method for simultaneously quantifying the amount of compounds related to boar taint such as skatole, androstenone and indole is described. With the reduction in the number of male pigs being castrated, the number of pigs with an amount of compounds related to boar taint above a defined sensorial threshold will increase. The method for simultaneously quantifying the amount of compounds related to boar taint such as skatole, androstenone and indole is based on an extraction of the compounds, desorption of compounds by heating the sample e.g. with a laser; optionally ionizing one or more of the desorbed compounds to produce one or more ions detectable by mass spectrometry; and quantifying the amount of one or more of the ions produced by mass spectrometry. In a preferred embodiment, the method employs laser diode thermal desorption - atmospheric pressure chemical ionization - tandem mass spectrometry (LDTD - APCI - MS/MS). The method makes it possible to obtain results from one sample each 10 seconds and more than 360 samples per hour can be analyzed.
