Reliable and user-friendly discrimination of coffee bean integrity and quantification of
adulteration in the coffee bean processing value chain would be vital for ensuring consumer
trust in quality control and traceability management. In this research, a portable short-wave
NIR spectroscopy coupled with chemometric data analysis was employed under different
pre-treatments to develop a rapid detection technique. Different pre-processing treatments
(multiplicative scatter correction; MSC, standard normal variant; SNV, first derivative; FD) …
