Qualification of Powdered Gelatin Agar by NIR Spectroscopy
28 Jul 2019Agar is a mixture of polysaccharides widely used in food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries for its jelly-like structure. As it is obtained from different species of red algae, its quality can vary from lot to lot. In this application note, ABB Analytical Measurements determines if NIR spectroscopy can be used to identify optimal and sub-optimal lots of powdered gelatin agar.

Near Infrared SpectroscopyNear-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy measures the interaction of near-infrared light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance and absorbance, facilitating the identification of analytes. Measurements can be conducted using a Fourier-transform near infrared (FT-NIR) spectrometer, while there are also UV-Vis- NIR spectrophotometers that measure a broader spectrum of wavelengths.
