Detection of Storage Age Adulteration in Khao Dawk Mali 105 Rice using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Detection of Storage Age Adulteration in Khao Dawk Mali 105 Rice  using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the adulteration of Khao Dawk Mali 105 rice based on storage age using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) with Fourier Transform Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-NIR) in the wavenumber range of 12,500 – 4,000 cm-1 (800 – 2,500 nm). Storage duration significantly impacts the quality of cooked rice. This research is divided into two parts: 1) to investigate the feasibility of separating rice according to storage age (1, 2, and 3 years) using the best model created by an Ensemble method combined with Second Derivative, which achieved an accuracy of 96.3%. 2) To investigate adulteration based on storage age by adulterating at 0% (all 2- and 3-year-old rice), 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% (all 1-year-old rice). The best model was created using Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) combined with Smoothing + Multiplicative Scatter Correction (MSC), with coefficients of determination (r²), root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP), bias, and prediction ability (RPD) values of 0.92, 8.6%, 0.9%, and 3.6 respectively. This demonstrates that the adulteration model can be applied to separate rice by storage age (1, 2, and 3 years). Additionally, the color values of rice with different storage ages show differences in L* and b* values.

Objective

โรงงานผู้ผลิตข้าวพบปัญหาการปลอมปนของข้าวสารที่มีอายุการเก็บรักษาต่างกัน โดยทั่วไปการคัดแยกการปลอมปนจะใช้วิธีมาตรฐานโดยการหุงข้าว จากนั้นนำข้าวหุงสุกไปวัดเนื้อสัมผัสเพื่อแยกอายุของข้าว ซึ่งใช้เวลาและเป็นการทำลายตัวอย่างและเกิดความล่าช้าในการตรวจสอบคุณภาพข้าวสาร งานวิจัยนี้ใช้เทคนิคเนียร์อินฟราเรดสเปกโทรสโกปี (Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, NIRS) ในการตรวจสอบการปลอมปนของข้าวสารพันธุ์ขาวดอกมะลิ 105 (KDML 105) ที่อายุการเก็บรักษาต่างกันเพื่อแก้ไขปัญหาดังกล่าว

DuLeafCare: Durian Leaf Care Web Aplication

Durian is an important economic crop in Thailand that is affected by foliar diseases such as rust, leaf blight, and leaf spot. These diseases reduce the quality of the yield and increase management costs. This research focuses on developing AI software for screening durian leaf diseases by applying deep learning technology to classify different types of leaf lesions.

New chili varieties resistant to anthracnose and Pepper yellow leaf curl diseases and high pungency

The research aims to develop chili Thai commercial varieties for resistance to anthracnose and Pepper yellow leaf curl virus disease. The varieties allowing farmer to reduce the use of chemical pesticides for disease and pest control, also increases productivity and lowers production costs for farmers. The development new varieties are under studied of undergraduate, master's, and doctoral students by using conventional and molecular plant breeding. The new chili varieties were released to farmer and commercial companies for development for Thai commercial seed industry.
