Near Infrared (NIR) Routine Analysis of Sugarcane Juice

Clarke, M.A., Legendre, B.L., et.al.  1997.  A near infrared NIRSystems Beverage Analyzer was utilized for the analyses of sugarcane juice samples of experimental clones. Results from 500 comparative tests for brix and 350 tests for pol using the Beverage Analyzer and conventional methods compared favorably. The correlation coefficients for both parameters exceeded 0.97 and precision was good. This NIR method provides fast and accurate results without the use of any chemicals or clarification agents.
