FT-NIR FATTY ACID DETERMINATION METHOD

摘要

A method for the rapid analysis of the fatty acid components present in a fatand/or oil-containing material is provided wherein the levels and types offatty acidspresent in a sample are determined using Fourier Transform Near Infrared (FT-NIR)spectroscopy. The FT-NIR technique is developed by preparing a calibrationmatrixbased on FT-NIR and Gas Chromatography (GC) analysis of known standards, andsubsequently using the calibration matrix to analyze the FT-NIR spectral dataobtainedfrom a sample to be tested.
