Analysis of Olive Oils by Fluorescence Spectroscopy: Methods and Applications

Olive Oil -Constituents, Quality, Health Properties and Bioconversions 64 techniques, relying on recording of single emission or excitation spectra, are often insufficient if directly applied. In such cases, total luminescence or synchronous scanning fluorescence techniques are used, improving the analytic potential of the fluorescence measurements. With contributions from numerous analytes, the autofluorescence of olive oil exhibits numerous overlapping bands. Such complex spectra should be analyzed using multivariate and multiway methods.
