Abstract:
The potential of Near Infrared Reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy to predict the chemical composition of traditional sausages was evaluated. Proximate composition was determined with reference methods. Calibration coefficients and standard errors were 0.92 and 1.66 (moisture), 0.90 and 0.10 (ash), 0.88 and 0.86 (protein) and 0.96 and 1.47 (fat). Cross validation coefficients and standard errors were 0.87 and 1.93 (moisture), 0.74 and 0.16 (ash), 0.75 and 1.21 (protein) and 0.92 and 1.98 (fat). NIR spectroscopy can be applied for the prediction of moisture and fat content of sausages.
