Description: Chickpeas are one of the most important pulses produced all over the world and occupies third position after beans and peas. Due to its high protein content, chickpea flour can be used in different food formulations to make protein rich products. In general, the protein content of chickpea flour is measured using Dumas method, which is sensitive, but time-consuming, expensive, and labor-intensive. In this study, the potential of near-infrared (NIR) hyperspectral imaging in predicting protein content in chickpea flour was investigated. Eight varieties of chickpeas having different protein contents were obtained from Crop Development Centre (CDC), University of Saskatchewan (Saskatoon, SK, Canada) and grounded to powder to make chickpea flour. The powdered chickpea flour samples were subjected to NIR reflectance hyperspectral imaging in the spectral range of 900 to 2500 nm. The protein content of twenty-four (8 var. x 3 replications) chickpea flour samples were measured using Dumas combustion method for reference. Spectral pre-treatment like Standard Normal Variate (SNV) was applied to the hyperspectral data to reduce the light scattering effects. Further, the spectral data (independent variables) was correlated with the measured reference protein content (dependent variables) of chickpea flour samples for building the Partial Least Square Regression model. Among the 24 samples, 16 samples were used for building the calibration model and 8 samples were used for the prediction model. The developed model yielded coefficient of determination of calibration and prediction as 0.9952 and 0.9908 and root mean square error of calibration and prediction as 0.1811 and 0.1878, respectively.
