Nondestructive Detection of Soluble Solids Content of Nanfeng Mandarin Orange Using VIS-NIR Spectroscopy

Abstract:

This study demonstrated how VIS-NIR spectroscopy can be used in the quantitative, noninvasive probing of soluble solids content (SSC) of mandarin orange. Total 197 mandarin oranges were divided into calibration set (133 samples) and prediction set (64 samples). Multiple scatter correction (MSC) was used to preprocess the collected visible and near infrared (Vis-NIR) spectra (350-1800nm) of mandarin orange. Partial least square (PLS), interval partial least square (IPLS) and synergy interval partial least square (SIPLS) methods were applied for constructing predictive models of SSC. Experimental results showed that the optimal SIPLS model obtained with 10 PLS components and the optimal combinations of intervals were number 5,7,8,9. The correlation coefficient (r) between the predicted and actual SSC was 0.9265 and 0.8577 for calibration and prediction set, respectively. The root mean square error of calibration (RMSEC) and prediction (RMSEP) set was 0.4890 and 0.7113, respectively. In conclusion, the combination of Vis-NIR spectroscopy and SIPLS methods can be used to provide a technique of noninvasive, convenient and rapid analysis for SSC in fruit.
