Estimation of oil content of single cotton seed using NIR spectrometer by area under curve method

The present manuscript describes the area under curve (AUC) method for the estimation of oil (fatty acid) in cotton seed non-destructively. The theory for AUC method is the area at selected analytical wavelength ranges over the sample spectra is directly proportional to the concentration of the components of interest. The oil content in cotton seed samples were analyzed using Near Infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) technique. Certain peaks were assessed and assigned to the corresponding fatty acids content. The spectral peaks observed at around 1200–1225nm corresponds to the second and third overtones of vibration of long hydrocarbon (-CH) chain present in fatty acids.
