Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) methods and common chemometric techniques [including discriminant analysis (DA), Mahalanobis distances, and Cooman plots] were used to classify various types of dietary supplement oils (DSO) and less expensive, common food oils. Rapid FT-IR methods were then developed to detect adulteration of DSO with select common food oils. Spectra of 14 types of DSO and 5 types of common food oils were collected with an FT-IR equipped with a ZnSe attenuated total reflectance cell and a mercury cadmium telluride A detector. Classification of DSO and some common food oils was achieved successfully using FT-IR and chemometrics. Select DSO were adulterated (2-20% v/v) with the common food oils that had the closest Mahalanobis distance to them in a Cooman plot based on the DA analysis, and data were also analyzed using a partial least-squares (PLS) method. The detection limit for the adulteration of DSO was 2% v/v. Standard curves to determine the adulterant concentration in DSO were also obtained using PLS with correlation coefficients of >0.9. The approach of using FT-IR in combination with chemometric analyses was successful in classifying oils and detecting adulteration of DSO.

The aim of this study was to develop a nondestructive method to quantitate relative amounts of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) species in vegetable oils and oil seeds using Fourier transform IR spectroscopy (FTIR). The alkene Cbond;H stretching vibrations of unsaturated fatty acids in oils showed IR absorption bands with various peak positions and intensities at around 3010 cm(-1), depending on the extent of unsaturation and PUFA species. With the aid of partial least-squares regression analysis, the FTIR measurement could practically predict the content of each PUFA species in the oil to be tested. A calculation method was also presented to directly find PUFA species in oils from the FTIR spectra. This technique was applied to dried soybean seeds to demonstrate a nonhomogenous distribution of saturated fatty acids and PUFAs, as well as glycans, in soybean cross sections.
