摘要
The standard method used to quantify free acidity (FA) in vegetable oil is neutralization titration, which requires many toxic chemicals and depends on an analyst's experience in detecting endpoints. Here, a digital image colorimetry (DIC) method using a smartphone camera was developed to measure FA in vegetable oils. A cupric acetate solution was used to produce the colorimetric reaction. The coloured solutions were imaged, and R values (from the RGB colour system) were calibrated against the respective FAs in the standards. The FA values of the samples were determined by standard addition calibration. These results were compared to measurements of FA obtained by the standard titrimetric method. An excellent correlation was obtained, with an R2 of 0.98 and a mean absolute error of 0.06%. The chemicals needed for analysis were reduced by approximately 90%. Thus, DIC is a less subjective and more economical method for determining FA in vegetable oils.
