This document describes methods for determining the content of erucic acid and glucosinolates in rapeseed using near-infrared spectroscopy and spectrophotometry. This document applies to the determination of erucic acid and glucosinolate content in rapeseed.
4 Near-infrared spectroscopy
4.1 Principle Utilizing the overtone vibrations or rotations of chemical bonds such as CH, OH, CO, CC, and SO in erucic acid and glucosinolate molecules in rapeseed The absorption characteristics of near-infrared light are obtained by diffuse reflection or transmission to obtain absorption or transmission spectra in the near-infrared region, and chemometric methods are used. A near-infrared calibration model for erucic acid and glucosinolates in rapeseed was established to calculate the content of erucic acid and glucosinolates in rapeseed.

---The absolute difference between the two measurements does not meet the requirements of 4.6.1.
4.5.3.2 Handling of Abnormal Measurement Results Abnormal samples that exceed the calibration model range should have erucic acid and glucosinolates determined according to the methods specified in GB 5009.168 and NY/T 1582, respectively. Samples whose content and results match those obtained by near-infrared spectroscopy can be used for calibration model upgrades. For abnormal samples where the absolute difference between two measurements does not conform to section 4.6.1, the spectral data and calibration model prediction results should be retested. Samples whose absolute difference between two retests meets the requirements of
4.6.1 can be used for calibration model upgrades.
4.6 Repeatability and Reproducibility
