Description
Summary:Oilseeds and edible oils are an indispensable part for the human diet and provide nutritional support for the human health. It has been reported a total of above 170 million tons per annum of edible oils consumption were consumed worldwide. Safety and quality of oilseeds and edible oils cannot be ignored, which can pose risk to human health and cause agro-economic loss. Classical techniques widely used to detect the safety and quality attributes of oilseeds and edible oils often involve time-consuming and tedious operation; therefore, the development of low cost, rapid and non-destructive detection method is necessary. This review presents applications of four emerging spectroscopic techniques in recent ten years, such as Raman spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and near-infrared spectroscopy for determining the quality and safety of oilseeds and edible oils. Meanwhile, the technical challenges and future prospects of these non-destructive spectroscopic technologies are also discussed.
