Investigation on Texture Changes and Classification between Cold-Fresh and Freeze-Thawed Tan Mutton by Dongdong Li, Yaling Peng, Haihong Zhang

“…To study the texture, microstructural changes, and classification of cold-fresh (C-F), freeze-thawed once (F-T0), and freeze-thawed twice Tan mutton (F-Tt), the aforementioned three types of Tan mutton were subjected to near-infrared hyperspectrum scanning, scanning electron microscopy, and TPA testing. The original spectrum of Tan mutton was obtained at a wavelength range of 900∼1,700 nm after hyperspectrum scanning; a spectrum fragment ranging from 918 nm to 1,008 nm was intercepted, and the remaining original spectrum was used as a studied spectrum (“full spectrum” hereafter). …”
