Abstract EN
Adulteration detection of argan oil is one of the main aspects of its quality control.
Following recent fraud scandals, it is mandatory to ensure product quality and customer protection.
The aim of this study is to detect the percentages of adulteration of argan oil with sunflower oil by using the combination of a voltammetric e-tongue and an e-nose based on metal oxide semiconductor sensors and pattern recognition techniques.
Data analysis is performed by three pattern recognition methods: principal component analysis (PCA), discriminant factor analysis (DFA), and support vector machines (SVMs).
Excellent results were obtained in the differentiation between unadulterated and adulterated argan oil with sunflower one.
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to demonstrate whether the combined e-nose and e-tongue technologies could be successfully applied to the detection of adulteration of argan oil.
