on the lard content in the products. In this study, we compared both Fourier transforms
infrared (FTIR) and Gas chromatography Mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) instruments to detect
lard in sausage products. FTIR spectroscopy revealed differences in the vibration of
functional groups, while GC-MS detected Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) compositions in
sausage products. The difference in data obtained was processed by PCA to distinguish …
