Spectroscopic techniques that can be used in monitoring food quality and safety will be discussed within the scope of this course.
Spectroscopic techniques are beginning to be seen as promising analytical techniques for monitoring food processes, quality and safety. Instrumental developments and the development of appropriate chemometric procedures have found applications of spectroscopic techniques in the fields of chemistry, pharmaceuticals, agro-food industry, life sciences and environmental analysis. This course will cover the features, advantages, and potential of common spectroscopic techniques.
| 1. | To understand the fundamentals of spectroscopy principles and instrumentation. |
| 2. | To have knowledge about the advantages and disadvantages of spectroscopic techniques. |
| 3. | To have information about the spectroscopic techniques to be examined, how to collect data on sample foods and how to interpret the measurements to be taken. |
| 4. | To have information about changing the performance of these techniques by comparing them with reference techniques for quick and routine analysis. |
| 5. | To have the ability to design and conduct experiments and to encourage critical thinking. |
