RESUMO

Low resolution Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) is shown to be a fast and accurate method for evaluating meat quality. The prediction of meat quality, especially in pork, has been performed using transverse relaxation time (T2). The measurements have been made with CPMG (Carr-Purcell-Meibom-Gill) pulse sequence which correlate the pork quality parameters such as water-holdcapacity (WHC), pH, and cooking loss (CL) with T2. In this work, the beef quality has been analyzed evaluated by transverse relaxation time (T2) measured by CPMG pulse sequence and by the T2, and, longitudinal relaxation time (T1), measured by CWFP (Continuous Wave Free Precession) technique The samples were collected from Longissimus lumborium muscle, from the 12th and 6th ribs region. The animals from three genetic groups, (two were ¾ and one was 9/16 european) were used in the experiments. The CPMG data were processed by multiexponential fitting, inverse Laplace transformation and chemometrics methods such as principal component analysis, hierarchic cluster analysis and partial least square regression. The CPMG data were not able to distinguish between the genetic group sex and the meat cut. The CWFP data analyzed by chemometrics methods show difference between Canchin males and females and between Canchin and Angus males. The results show almost no difference between the samples collected from the 12th and 6th rib.
