Abstract

This paper presents the progress of the development of a nondestructive technique for the classification of normal, septicemic , and cadaver poultry carcasses by the Instrumentation and Sensing Laboratory at Beltsville, Maryland, U.S.A. The Sensing technique is based on the diffuse reflectance spectroscopy of poultry carcasses.
