“…Factor loading |≥0.4| of food products was considered as making a significant contribution to the factor structure. As a rule, factor loading with a value of |≥0.2| was used; however, depending on the data obtained, higher values were also used [29][30][31][32]. DPs were named according to the variables loaded on a retained component.…”
