Item Revisión sistemática sobre el uso de (NIRS) como herramienta para la detección de cianuro y carotenoides en la yuca (Manihot Esculenta) identificando limitaciones y oportunidades para la seguridad alimentaria(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2025-11-18) Ruiz Quelal, Diana MarcelaCassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a staple crop in tropical and subtropical regions, providing food for over 800 million people due to its adaptability to poor soils and high starch and carotenoid content. However, its consumption carries risks due to cyanogenic glycosides, which release cyanide. To address this issue, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has emerged as a non-destructive, rapid, and accurate technique for detecting carotenoids and cyanide. This study aimed to evaluate and classify detection methods for these compounds in cassava, focusing on the efficacy and applicability of NIRS. Through a systematic analytical-descriptive review (2014–2024) of databases such as Science Direct and Web of Science, selected articles were analyzed based on the criteria of the RAI methodology. Results demonstrated that NIRS is highly effective, with models exceeding 99 % accuracy in classifying varieties based on cyanide content and showing strong correlations with reference techniques like HPLC. NIR spectroscopy emerges as an efficient and scalable tool, outperforming traditional methods in terms of speed and safety. However, its implementation requires standardized protocols to ensure consistent results. Its integration into routine monitoring systems is recommended, complemented by multivariate analysis, to optimize its application in the food and agricultural industries.
