I'm not sure why the NYT writer picked the word "inject" for the lede, since the exact process is actually not injection at all:
Mr. Roth eventually settled on ammonia, which had been shown to suppress spoilage. Meat is sent through pipes where it is exposed to ammonia gas, and then flash frozen and compressed — all steps that help kill pathogens, company research found.
It seems the writer wanted his shock value maximized, so "inject" seems to be the way to go.
