Eagle Product Inspection has developed proprietary technologies designed to increase the probability for detection using algorithms that meet critical business needs.
“Not all beef trim is created equal,” says Christopher Kerth, Ph.D., associate professor of meat science at Texas A&M University, based in College Station, Texas.
While many meat and poultry processors have long used fat analysis systems to measure leanness levels, evolving technologies are making it simpler for the operators to perform readings.
In the past, fat analysis during the mixing and blending process was determined by a "butcher's eye." Procedures have certainly progressed since then, with producers using X-ray and infrared scanners, and now dual-energy X-ray technology.
