Monitoring of virgin coconut oil (VCO) adulteration with palm oil using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.

Virgin coconut oil (VCO) may be adulterated with cheaper oils, such as palm oil (PO). Thus, the detection and quantification of VCO adulteration with PO was monitored using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, combined with chemometrics of partial least square (PLS) and discriminant analy...
