The Data Support DSC HFT1000M analyzer estimates fat content by determining the moisture content in a sample. It uses an infrared heat source to dry the sample, and the moisture loss is measured over time. Since fat content in ground beef or pork is inversely related to moisture content, the device indirectly calculates fat percentage based on the reduction in sample weight due to moisture evaporation.
