For beef cattle, subjective methods tend to be used on-farm for assessing readiness for slaughter. This means that the target classification grades cannot be accurately estimated, leading to over- and under-finished animals being sent to slaughter. T...
Consumers increasingly demand sustainable production practices and high-quality standards. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy presents a non-invasive and efficient tool for addressing these concerns. This study aimed to evaluate vacuum-aged beef across...
This study aimed to evaluate the use of infrared thermography (IRT) as a method for predicting the initial and ultimate temperature, as well as the pH, of the Longissimus thoracis in beef carcasses (LTBC). A total of 102 beef carcasses, consisting of...
Frozen pork stocks are critical for stabilizing food security and prices, but assessing nutritional and physicochemical changes during freezing remains challenging. This study conducted a 12-month frozen storage experiment at -20 °C on 50 pigs' longi...
Current traceability systems rely heavily on external markers which can be altered or tampered with. We hypothesized that the unique intramuscular fat patterns in beef cuts could serve as natural physical identifiers for traceability, while simultane...
Lipids are critical precursors of aroma compounds in beef tallow. This study investigated how enzymatic hydrolysis treatment affected the aroma precursors and flavor of beef tallow during the manufacturing process. Using gas chromatography-mass spect...
Beef, as a nutrient-rich food, is widely favored by consumers. The production region significantly influences the nutritional value and quality of beef. However, current methods for tracing the origin of beef are still under development, necessitatin...
This study evaluated the performance of a deep-learning-based model that predicted cooking loss in the semispinalis capitis (SC) muscle of pork butts using hyperspectral images captured 24 h postmortem. To overcome low-scale samples, 70 pork butts we...
The quality of beef meatballs during repeated freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles was assessed by multiple indicators. This study introduced a novel quality evaluation method using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and multi-task learning. Seventeen quality indicator...
