Abstract
The moisture content of persimmons during drying was monitored by hyperspectral imaging technology. All persimmons were dried using a hot-air dryer at 40°C and divided into seven groups according to drying time: semi-dried persimmons (Cont), 1day (DP-1), 2days (DP-2), 3days (DP-3), 4days (DP-4), 5days (DP-5), and 6days (DP-6). Shortwave infrared hyperspectral spectra and moisture content of all persimmons were analyzed to develop a prediction model using partial least squares regression. There were obvious absorption bands: two at approximately 971nm and 1452nm were due to water absorption related to O-H stretching of the second and first overtones, respectively. The R-squared value of the optimal calibration model was 0.9673, and the accuracy of the moisture content measurement was 95%. These results indicate that hyperspectral imaging technology can be used to predict and monitor the moisture content of dried persimmons during drying.
