Scientists in the food and beverage industry are faced with many different quality control tasks, such as making sure that flavors meet certain standards, identifying changes in process parameters that may lead to a change in quality, detecting adulteration in any ingredient and identifying the geographical origin of raw materials. Food scientists who work for regulatory agencies, such as the F...

This article presents an evaluation of the electronic nose technology as an alternative to sensory analysis for assessing the effectiveness of biofilters. An AromaScan A32S electronic nose and a human panel at Duke University’s Taste and Smell Research Lab were used to measure typical volatile compounds from swine confinement buildings. Chemometrics techniques were employed to predict the olfac...

An integrated lignin biorefinery process was studied by chemometrics. A regime for structurally preserved lignins with tuneable properties identified.

Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy as a rapid and nondestructive analytical technique, integrated with chemometrics, is a powerful process analytical tool for the pharmaceutical industry and is becoming an attractive complementary technique for herbal medicine analysis. This review mainly focuses on the recent applications of NIR spectroscopy in species authentication of herbal medicines and thei...

Abstract Background This review represents many significant methods of chemometrics applied as data assessment originated by hyphenated analytical techniques containing their application since its origin to today. Main body the abstract The study has been divided into parts, which contain multivariate regression methods. main aim this is investigate tools used in GSR (gunshot residue) or forens...

This chapter presents an introduction to robust statistics with applications of a chemometric nature. Following a description of the basic ideas and concepts behind robust statistics, including how robust estimators can be conceived, the chapter builds up to the construction (and use) of robust alternatives for some methods for multivariate analysis frequently used in chemometrics, such as prin...
