Moreover, this issue can affect food safety and pose a risk to human health by causing allergies through nut product adulterations. Therefore, in this study, high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) fingerprints were used for classification of ten types of nuts, using partial least squares regression-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), as well as for the detection and quantitation of almond-based product (almond flour and almond custard cream) adulterations with hazelnut and peanut, using partial least squares regression (PLS). A satisfactory global nut classification was achieved with PLS-DA. Paired PLS-DA models of almonds in front of their adulterants were also evaluated, producing a classification rate of 100%. Moreover, PLS regression produced low prediction errors (below 6.1%) for the studied adulterant levels, with no significant matrix effect observed.28 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Elsevier B.V., 2020http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/esAmetllesÀcid oleicQuimiometriaInspecció dels alimentsCromatografia de líquids d'alta resolucióAlmondOleic acidChemometricsFood inspectionHigh performance liquid chromatographyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6999762020-05-18info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
