Non Destructive Inner Quality Prediction In Intact Mango With Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy
Abstract: Two major parameters
which determine inner quality and the taste of mango, total soluble solids
(TSS) and frmness, are still determined destructively. To evaluate the
feasibility of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) technique in
determining total soluble solids (TSS) contents and frmness in intact mango,
diffuse reflectance (R) spectra were measured in the spectral range from 900 to
1400 nm. Calibration models using R and log (1/R) were established by stepwise
multiple linear regression with k-fold leave one out (LOO) cross validation.
The correlation coeffcients (r) of calibrations ranged from 0.89 to 0.96 with
SEC values 0.46 to 1.08. Both TSS and frmness were predicted accurately using
log (1/R) spectra.
