“…NaCl content was also determined in ground pork samples and small samples of dry-cured hams by CT (Håseth et al, 2008). More recently, calibration models for NaCl content, moisture content and water activity in pork hams during the salting and the resting periods (Fulladosa, Santos-Garcés, Picouet, & Gou, 2010) and during the resting period (Santos-Garcés, Gou, Garcia-Gil, Santos-Garcés, Muñoz, Gou, Sala, & Fulladosa, 2012) were created using CT. At the same time, different articles (Arnau, 1998;Barat, Grau, Ibáñez, & Fito, 2005;Grau, Albarracin, Toldrá, Antequera, & Barat, 2008) have shown the interest of freezing the ham before salting, to have more homogeneous batch, easier to transport from production place to the transformer. Frozen/thawed hams have also shown a more rapid salt intake (Bañón, Cayuel, Granados, & Garrido, 1999;Barat et al, 2005;Barat, Grau, Pagán-Moreno, & Fito, 2004;Serra, Fulladosa, Gou, & Arnau, 2010;Sørheim & Berg, 1987).…”
