“…The absorption peaks at wavelengths of 1,566 nm with correlation coefficients ( R ) of 0.98, 1,752 nm with R of 0.988 and 2,100 nm with R of 0.93 for flour samples, also, the absorption peaks at 1,566 nm with R of 0.67 and 2,295 with R of 0.70 for rice samples can be attributed to the SBV, the results from the reported research are in agreement with the ones obtained by Siriphollakul et al. (2015) because the correlation coefficients reported by him, around (0.81–0.96), were quite similar to the ones from this research. Also, the absorption peak at 997 nm with R of 0.73 for flour samples, also, the absorption peak at 997, 1,199, 1,456, 1,566, and 1,750 nm with R of (0.91, 0.99, 0.98, 0.98, and 0.983), respectively, for rice samples could be correlated with the BDV, this results was according to that obtained by Natsuga and Kawamura (2006) who observed that the correlation coefficients of the parameter BDV for milled rice were 0.91.…”
