Edible oil is an important source of macronutrients and a good vehicle for micronutrients such as Vitamin A. Quality of edible oils is determined by conventional laboratory methods that are often expensive, relying on chemicals, and slow turnaround. If quality tests are more readily available in low-resource settings, we can more effectively address human malnutrition, especially for vulnerable populations. However, there is a lack of incentive and efforts to bridge gap between efficient tests and available technology, though, so here we show initial outcomes from our edible oil quality analysis using optical approaches including ultraviolet and near-infrared spectroscopy.
