Abstract

There are nearly 40 items that should ideally be reported when an NIR (near infrared) spectroscopy project is completed, either as a report or as a scientific paper. However, in our reading of the extensive literature, many of the papers presented or published report no more than 6–10 of these. The purpose of this tutorial is to indicate all of the items and the reasons for reporting them. Most of the items that need to be reported are important for anyone who seeks to duplicate the type of application and methods reported in a peer-reviewed journal article for their own work. Practically, all of the items are significant to any worker if the eventual objective of their work is to extend it to the level of industrial application. The tutorial will summarize these items, and give some explanation for their inclusion. The tutorial should be useful to potential authors, as well as to reviewers.
