Current tasks of commodity assessment and examination of nuts in modern conditions

Abstract

In domestic and international practice, documents for nuts require visual inspection and morphological assessment for quality identifi cation. In the case of applying diff erent degrees of thermal exposure to nuts, there is no exact instrumental method, the data of which can be interpreted unambiguously during their examination and commodity assessment. Most of the analytical methods are aimed at identifying nut allergens. The analysis of scientifi c and technical information did not reveal an exact offi cial method for identifying the diff erences between fresh nuts and nuts with varying degrees of heat exposure. Currently, the introduction of an eff ective method in the examination and evaluation of nuts is an urgent task of commodity science.
