Comparative Study of Two Methods of Moisture and Fat Analysis in Fresh Pork Loin

The objective of this experiment was to compare two moisture and fat analysis methods using 56 commercial pork loin samples: oven drying/Soxhlet solvent extraction and CEM Smart 6/Oracle. Correlation analysis revealed a high positive correlation among the fat analysis methods, and a moderate positive correlation among moisture analysis methods. The CEM rapid methodology was more advantageous in that it allowed for faster data collection.
