        "description": "AHDB is seeking information from possible suppliers of a Computer Tomography (CT) scanning service (to include the CT equipment and technicians to operate it and interpret the results) for the assessment of lean meat content of pig half-carcases at a commercial abattoir premises within the United Kingdom. AHDB is engaged in a programme of work with the aim to \"stimulate the introduction of a new method of carcase classification.\" To address this the AHDB Pork Board established a working group to explore opportunities for new carcase assessment systems. The group has concluded that there are two new classification devices that offer the potential to provide a more complete assessment of yield from the carcase. We are now seeking to set up and run a trial to evaluate these devices, together with existing hand-held probes, for their ability to predict lean meat content (measured by CT) of pig carcases. To receive further details, please email procurement@ahdb.org.uk Additional information: If you are interested in receiving further details reqarding this request for information, please email procurement@ahdb.org.uk",
