Ultrasonographic determination of chemical composition and physical properties of meat in fattener pigs

Project 21-04 - Pawel Bartlewski, University of Guelph

Dr. Pawel Bartlewski, University of Guelph|

There exists a potential application for ultrasonographic imaging in situ combined with computerized image analysis to estimate/predict certain chemical constituents, physical characteristics of muscles and sensory meat attributes in live pigs. However, the existence and strength of correlations among ultrasonographic image attributes and muscle composition must be determined using analyses of the processed images to maintain the consistency of outcomes.
