Extract

Colour is an important component of meat quality. Because colour is associated with factors such as freshness and food safety, it is often a primary consideration of consumers when making purchasing decisions (McCaig, 2002). The aim of this work was to explore the use of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy to assess colour composition on pork muscle samples from different feeding regimes.
