            more strongly from extra virgin olive oil samples
            compared to pure olive oil samples. Also, strong

            detected from pure olive oil samples. This 400 nm
            emission light is predicted to be derived from vitamins.

            Q Multivariate Analysis Based on Three-Dimensional
               Spectra
            Similar to absorbance analysis, a multivariate
            analysis was performed on the three-dimensional
            spectra to differentiate between pure olive oils and
            extra virgin olive oils. Emission light intensity at the
            10 points shown in Fig. 12 (A through J) was used        Fig. 12  Analysis Points for Multivariate Analysis
            for this analysis.
