We offer comprehensive meat texture analysis services using a texture analyzer equipped with three specialized fixtures to quantify key textural attributes such as firmness and toughness.
The Warner-Bratzler Knife fixture is employed to assess overall firmness and shear force, commonly used in meat tenderness studies.
The Meullenet-Owens Razor Shear (MORS) fixture, featuring narrow razor blades, allows for precise shearing at targeted sites, providing detailed insights into localized toughness.
Additionally, the Tug fixture set, which uses an upper and lower array of four pins arranged in a diamond pattern, is designed to measure extensibility and resistance to stretching, particularly useful for evaluating structural integrity.
Together, these methods enable a robust, multi-dimensional evaluation of meat texture for both research and product development.
