To reduce human errors in color evaluations that may lead to commercial issues, enterprises use color scales and measurement devices. This study presents a comparative evaluation of color measurements made using the SalmoFanTM color scale and the Konica Minolta CR 10 and CR14 Chroma Meter devices. As a result of the study, strong positive/negative correlations were found between the Ea, Eb, and EC values and the color scale values in all color scales, except for 22 color scales. The study also revealed that the non-homogeneous structure of salmon fillet color is a significant barrier in correlating the obtained data.

Türk Somon Filetolarında Görsel Değerlendirme ile CR 10-14 Renk Ölçüm Cihazları Arasındaki Korelasyon
İşletmeler, ticari sorunlara yol açabilecek renk değerlendirmelerindeki insan hatalarını azaltmak için renk skalaları ve ölçüm cihazları kullanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada SalmoFanTM renk skalası ve Konica Minolta CR 10 ve CR14 Kromametre cihazları kullanılarak yapılan renk ölçümlerinin karşılaştırmalı değerlendirmesi sunulmaktadır. Çalışma sonucunda 22 renk skalası hariç tüm renk skalalarında Ea, Eb ve EC değerleri ile renk skalası değerleri arasında güçlü pozitif/negatif korelasyonlar bulunmuştur. Çalışmada ayrıca somon fileto renginin homojen olmayan yapısının elde edilen verilerin ilişkilendirilmesi açısından önemli bir engel olduğu ortaya konulmuştur.
