An Evaluation of Simple Methods for Following Rigor Development in Fish
TL;DR: In this article, a simple rigorometer (muscle tension measuring device) was found to correlate well with measurements of the relative ATP/IMP content ratio (258/250 nm absorbance ratio of perchloric extracts), muscle pH, and visual measurements of stiffness in whole fish (tilapia, Areochromis aureus) during rigor development.
Book
Planning, construction, and statistical analysis of comparative experiments
TL;DR: The Completely Randomized Design of Factorial Experiments as mentioned in this paper, the 2n System, and the 3n System are the most commonly used models for designed experiments in the literature.

TL;DR: The variability associated with testing lots of shelled corn for aflatoxin was investigated and mathematical expressions were developed to model the relationship between a Flatoxin concentration and the total, sampling, sample preparation, and analytical variances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigations into genotypic variations of peanut carbohydrates.
TL;DR: The observed high genotypic variation in carbohydrate components is similar to the high genotype variation observed for the sweetness attribute in roasted peanuts, which raises the question regarding possible interrelationships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sampling, sample preparation, and analytical variability associated with testing wheat for deoxynivalenol.
TL;DR: In this article, the variability associated with testing wheat for deoxynivalenol (DON) was measured using a 0.454 kg sample, Romer mill, 25 g comminuted subsample, and the Romer Fluoroquant analytical method.
