    Potential of Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy in Adulteration Detection and Quality Assessment in Buffalo and Goat Milks
    (Elsevier, 2021) Şen, Sevval; Dündar, Zahide; Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, Banu
    Adulteration of higher priced milks with cheaper ones to obtain extra profit can be the cause of adverse health effects as well as economic loss. In this study, it was aimed to differentiate goat-cow and buffalo-cow milk mixtures and also to estimate the critical quality parameters of these milks by the evaluation of Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic data with chemometric methods. Raw goat and buffalo milks were mixed with cow milk at 1-50% (v/v) concentrations and FTIR spectra of the pure and mixed samples were obtained at 4000-650 cm-1. Orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) resulted in differentiation of goat-cow and buffalo-cow milk mixtures with 93% and 91% correct classification rates, respectively. Detection level for mixing is determined as higher than 5% for both milks. Total fat, protein, lactose and non-fat solid contents were predicted from FTIR spectral data of the combination of three types of milks by partial least square models with R2 values of 0.99. As a result, FTIR spectroscopy provides rapid and simultaneous detection of adulteration and prediction of quality parameters regardless of the milk type.

    Use of Ftir and Uv-Visible Spectroscopy in Determination of Chemical Characteristics of Olive Oils
    (Elsevier, 2019) Uncu, Oğuz; Özen, Banu; Tokatlı, Figen
    It was aimed to predict fatty acid ethyl ester (FAEE), wax, diacylglycerol (DAG) and color pigment contents of olive oils by using rapid and non-destructive spectroscopic techniques (FTIR and UV-vis) individually and in combination. Prediction models were constructed by using partial least squares (PLS) regression with cross and external validation. FAEEs were estimated best with FTIR + UV-Vis spectroscopy (R-cv.(2) = 0.84, R-pred(2) = 0.90, and RPD = 3.0). PLS model with R-cv.(2) = 0.79, R-pred(2) = 0.71, and RPD = 1.9 was obtained for the estimation of 1,2 DAG using FTIR spectral data. Major pigments, lutein, pheophytin a and their derivatives and total xanthophylls were quantified successfully by FTIR + UV-Vis with a range of R-cv.(2) of 0.71-0.85, R-pred(2) of 0.70-0.84, and RPD = 1.5-2.5 values but the prediction of the rest of the pigments were poor (R-cv(2) = 0.60-0.76, R-pred(2) = 0.42-0.62, and RPD = 1.2-1.5). Combination of two spectral data resulted in average prediction of wax content of oils (R-cal(2) = 0.95, R-pred(2) = 0.75, and RPD = 1.9). FTIR and UV-vis spectroscopic techniques in combination with PLS regression provided promising results for the prediction of several chemical parameters of olive oils; therefore, they could be alternatives to traditional analysis methods.
