Popis: Summary The Super-scan meat analyser measures protein, fat and moisture on an homogenate of the sample by infrared absorption in the transmittance rather than the reflectance mode. A preliminary evaluation of the instrument using fifty-two samples of chicken or turkey meat indicated that the instrument gave reliable results for fat but not for protein and moisture. Regression equations were obtained from the combined data and used to correct the protein and moisture results. These equations were tested on a further twenty-eight samples of turkey meat and the results obtained demonstrated that the instrument could be used for the rapid analysis of poultry meat.
