26 May 2020 --- Chemometric Brain is a newly launched software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform created to identify food fraud and increase transparency along the global supply chain. The cloud-based software uses near-infrared (NIR) technology to guarantee the traceability, suitability and homogeneity of ingredients and food products. While the powerful technique of using NIR has been around for many years, it was never extensively adapted into the food sector due to its complexity. Chemometric Brain is touted for making the technology more accessible to a wide range of ingredients suppliers.
