METHOD OF MEASURING CALORIE OF OBJECT AND DEVICE OF MEASURING CALORIE OF OBJECT

摘要

Near-IR rays are used to be able to measure calorie, thereby measuring the calorie of an object easily and in a short time by a non-destructive method. A calorie measuring device comprising an object holding unit (1) having a table (2) on which to mount an object (M) to be examined, a light source unit (20) irradiating the object (M) on the table (2) with a near-IR-region ray, a light reception unit (30) receiving a reflection light or transmitted light from the object (M), and a control unit (40) calculating the calorie of the object (M) based on the absorbance of light received by the reception unit (30), wherein the control unit (40) computes the calorie of the object (M) from a regression expression calculated by a quadratic differential spectrum multiple regression analysis at the absorbance of a near-IR ray applied in advance to and reflected off or passed through a calorie-known sample object (M) and from the absorbance of light received by the reception unit (30).
