Sažetak
Traditional methods predict the body composition by determining total body water, potassium, creatinine, and body density. From new methods, highly significant are bioelectrical impedance measurements, which clearly predict the body composition, and are also used for diagnostics in laboratory, semiindustrial and industrial area. The basic principle of the impedance measurement is that the meat (or the body) with different ration of fat and water shows different resistance to current flow. Highly conductive lean tissues contain large amounts of water and electrolytes and represent a low resistance electrical pathway, whereas fat and bone represent a high resistance electrical pathway. The multiple regression analysis showes highly significant correlation between impedance analysis and chemical results and confirmed reliability of a bioimpedance method for prediction of meat quality.
