Simple and Rapid Quantification of Total Carotenoids in Lyophilized Apricots (Prunus armeniaca L.) by Means of Reflectance Colorimetry and Photoacoustic Spectroscopy

Simple and Rapid Quantification of Total Carotenoids in Lyophilized Apricots (Prunus armeniaca L.) by Means of Reflectance Colorimetry and Photoacoustic Spectroscopy

Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) and reflectance colorimetry are suggested as new tools for the analysis of total carotenoids in lyophilized apricot powders. The data obtained by these two techniques from seven apricot cultivars were compared to those acquired by spectrophotometry and high-performan...
