Although legislation requires the production of immediate insensibility, implying that a stun can be applied only once, the practice of repeat application of electrical stunning is common. However, the relative consequences of such repeat applications are unknown. This study investigated the effects of repeat applications of electrical stunning (200 V, 50 Hz) following different delays of 15, 60 or...
Variations in the manual application of electrical stunning tongs that are commonly observed in stunning pens in abattoirs were tested under laboratory conditions on 145 pigs.
