White paper Visible and near-infrared spectroscopy for the measurement of fresh-produce quality parameters

Several non-destructive sensing techniques are available for fresh-fruit-quality analysis; however, most of them are still restricted to either research laboratories or are not cost-effective to be defined as a profitable solution for fresh-fruit analysis. A key technique being promoted from the past two decades is visible and near-infrared (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy (i.e., 400–2500 nm). This is an optical technique that relies on the interaction of electromagnetic radiation (400–2500 nm) with the fruit.

This white paper gives you insights of Vis-NIR spectroscopy for the use in the fresh-fruit chain. The principles of NIR spectroscopy are described to serve as a practical guide to successfully employ the power of Vis-NIR spectroscopy as an affordable and non-destructive method to measure fruit-quality parameters with the goal of making a more efficient fresh-fruit chain and delivering optimal quality fruits to the consumer.
