Drip Loss Assessment by Different Analytical Methods and Their Relationships with Pork Quality Classification

Figure 2

Regressions of 24 h (EZ₂₄) and 48 h, dabbed () and nondabbed () EZ-DripLoss as a function of 48 h drip loss by the bag method (DL) in pork loins (). EZ₂₄, % = 0.33 + 0.07 × DL + 0.05 × DL² ± 1.02% (SE), = 0.72, and ; , % = −0.78 + 0.79 × DL ± 1.10% (SE), = 0.74, and ; and , % = −0.98 + 0.94 × DL ± 1.41% (SE), = 0.70, and .
