Abstract:Premise: The Nix Spectro 2 was developed to obtain CIEL*a*b* values from small samples and is an affordable alternative to the more expensive spectrophotometers typically used to assess food color. Methods: To validate the use of the Nix for lentil seed quality research, eight genotypes in three different field trials, were evaluated for flour color using HunterLab (illuminant C) and Nix (illuminants D50 and C) instruments and results compared for consistency. Results: The a* and b* Nix scores were comparable … Show more
