Among the industrially produced sudzuk (from four different companies) the moisture content, total ash, sodium chloride, total acids, protein and pH were different (p<0.05), while the fat content did not significantly differ between the producers (p>0.05). Instrumental colour measurement indicated statistically significant differences (p<0.05) for a* between the sudzuk produced in the households, for a* between those produced in industrialconditions, and for L* between the industrially produced sudzuk. No statistically significant difference (p>0.05) was determined for b* between the sudzuk produced in households or between those produced in industrial conditions. In sensory evaluation, differences (p<0.05) were found in the overall grades of the sudzuk produced by households, while the overall grades of the industrially producedsudzuk did not statistically differ (p>0.05).
