Non-Destructive Quantification of Urea Adulteration in Bovine Milk Using Transmittance Multispectral Imaging
Adulteration of bovine milk using urea remains a major food quality and health concern, motivating the development of rapid and quantitative screening tools. Conventional approaches, including laboratory-based analytical methods and spectroscopic techniques, have been used for urea detection; however, many remain less suitable for rapid, low-cost routine screening due to requirements such as specialized instrumentation, sample preparation, chemical reagents, or laboratory operation. This study introduces a pragmatic, cost-effective, accurate, and laboratory-validated MSI-based method for quantitative urea estimation under controlled density conditions using a multispectral-imaging-based r...
