This study was conducted to determine whether fat content could be estimated by measuring impedance of beef patty using touch type electrodes. Patty were prepared from bovine M. semimembranosus and bovine subcutaneous fat. The impedance in patty was measured using a LCR meter equipped with touch type electrodes. The crude fat content in patty was determined by a Soxhlet method. The relationship between crude fat content and impedance in patty was analyzed using simple regression analysis : a high positive correlation was observed. This result suggested that it is possible to estimate crude fat content in patty using impedance and a regression equation based on the relationship between crude fat content and impedance in patty. It was also possible to estimate crude fat content in steak using this method.
