Beschreibung:
This volume provides standardize analytical processes and techniques used for the analysis of meat and meat products. Chapters guide readers through methods on different chemical parameters, measurement of pH, correct determination of texture parameters in different meat and meat products, fat extraction, free amino acids, hydrolyzed amino acids extraction, nitrites and nitrates in meat and meat products, liquid chromatography, and techniques used for the determination of antioxidant capacity in meat and meat products.
