Summary:The process for improving the organoleptic qualities, in particular the odour, savour and tenderness, of meat from non-castrated male domestic animals comprises, shortly before slaughtering the animal concerned, the suppression of the action of androgenic and nonandrogenic steriods by active or passive anti-LHRH immunoneutralisation while maintaining, and up to slaughtering, the advantages linked to the male characteristics of the animal. The vaccines comprise, as peptide, natural LHRH or a peptide of formula Trp - Ser - Tyr - Gly - Leu - Arg - Pro - Gly - NH2, coupled to an immunogenic carrier protein.
