Juiciness mechanical

Beilken et al. [ 12] have applied a number of instrumental measuring methods to assess the mechanical strength of 12 different meat patties. In all, 20 different physical/chemical properties were measured. The products were tasted twice by 12 panellists divided over 4 sessions in which 6 products were evaluated for 9 textural attributes (rubberiness, chewiness, juiciness, etc.). Beilken etal. [12] subjected the two sets of data, viz. the instrumental data and the sensory data, to separate principal component analyses. The relation between the two data sets, mechanical measurements versus sensory attributes, was studied by their intercorrelations. Although useful information can be derived from such bivariate indicators, a truly multivariate regression analysis may give a simpler overall picture of the relation.
