Abstract. Visible/near-infrared (Vis/NIR) spectroscopy with wavelength range between 400 and 2500 nm combined with factor analysis method was tested to predict quality attributes of chicken breast fillets. Quality attributes, including color (L*, a*, b*), pH, and drip loss were analyzed using factor analysis method. Factors (F1 and F2), as a comprehensive performance of quality attributes, were classified from quality attributes according to their internal correlations. Individual quality attributes and factors were predicted using partial least-squares regression (PLSR) respectively. Results indicated that F1 and F2 had good predictive ability (R2p=0.79, RPD=2.0; R2p=0.83, RPD=2.4). Results revealed that Vis/NIR spectroscopy combined with factor analysis method can be used as a tool for quality assessment of chicken meat.
