durum wheat adulteration (1)

Determination and quantification of durum wheat adulteration with common wheat has been successfully developed using DNA methodology. However, this assay is time consumer and requires specialist equipment. A feasibility study of determining durum wheat adulteration with common wheat grains using multispectral imaging (MSI) and hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has been carried out. The two techniques have been successful in rapidly distinguishing durum wheat from common wheat grains, and permitting quantitative determination of the amount of common what present.
