the potential of vis-ir (400–1100 nm) transmittance method to assess the internal quality (freshness) of intact chicken egg during storage at a temperature of 307 oc and 25% 4 relative humidity was investigated. one hundred chicken egg samples were used for measuring its freshness and spectral collection during egg storage times (up to 30 days). two correlation models between haugh unit (hu) an...

Alfalfa hay plays a decisive role in the quality and safety of livestock products. Chemical analytical methods for alfalfa hays are laborious, time-consuming, costly. Therefore, suitable required rapid accurate detection hay. This study evaluated feasibility infrared spectroscopy (IR) identifying different hays. 105 samples under three drying were analysed. Results indicated that full spectra m...

Dampening during processing or storage can largely influence the quality of white lotus seeds (WLS). This paper investigated the feasibility of using near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and chemometrics for rapid and nondestructive discrimination of the dampened WLS. Regular (n = 167) and dampened (n = 118) WLS objects were collected from five main producing areas and NIR reflectance spectra (4000...

Four near-infrared spectrophotometers, and their associated spectral collection methods, were tested and compared for measuring three soybean single-seed attributes: weight (g), protein (%), and oil (%). Using partial least-squares (PLS) and four preprocessing methods, the attribute that was significantly most easily predicted was seed weight (RPD > 3 on average) and protein the least. The perf...

Nondestructive method of measuring the internal quality of citrus fruits was developed using fourier transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy. Also the models describing the relationship between quality attributes and the NIR spectra of the fruits were developed and evaluated. Diffuse reflectance measurements (12500–3600 cm -1 ) and biochemical measurements were performed individually on e...

abstract the assessment of ripeness is a major part of quality evaluation and depends on several factors such as soluble solid content (ssc), acidity and firmness. most of the methods that measure these qualities are destructive. so it is essential to develop an efficient and nondestructive method for measuring internal attributes of fruit. the objective of this study was to investigate visible...

This paper investigated the feasibility of Fourier transform infrared transmission (FT-IR) spectroscopy to detect talcum powder illegally added in tea based on chemometric methods. Firstly, 210 samples of tea powder with 13 dose levels of talcum powder were prepared for FT-IR spectra acquirement. In order to highlight the slight variations in FT-IR spectra, smoothing, normalize and standard nor...
