Traditional FTIR applications are quantitative they target specific compounds such as fat and protein. Based on experiments such calibrations can be constructed for a range of potential adulterants. An additional approach is to create qualitative calibrations to create untargeted models capable of detecting an adulterant to a certain concentration.
Commercial trials
Commercial trials are currently underway, with plans to commercialise the methods if tests areconclusive,added Leroux.
