The industrial term for jute fiber is raw jute. The fibers are off-white to brown and range from 1–4 meters (3.3–13.1 ft) long. In Bangladesh, jute is called the "golden fiber" for its color and monetary value. [2] The bulk of the jute trade is centered in South Asia, with India and Bangladesh as the primary producers.
Jute fibre is made from the bark tissue of C. olitorius and C. capsularis, especially in South Asian countries, though fibre made from C. olitorius is considered to be of lesser quality. Finished fibres appear golden and silky with a length of up to 3 m and with a diameter of 2.4 μm . [ 19 ]

National Institute of Natural Fibre Engineering and Technology (NINFET), formerly National Institute of Research on Jute and Allied Fibre Technology (NIRJAFT), is an institute under Indian Council of Agricultural Research, Government of India [1] and dedicated to the research of jute and allied fibres leading to the diversified use and industrial growth.
Testing fiber properties is vitally important. Applications of a fibre are determined by its physical, mechanical, chemical, and environmental properties. Physical properties are those that can be assessed with the naked eye or a microscope. A textile testing laboratory determines the mechanical properties of different fibers. [6]
Solid-phase microextraction sampling. Solid phase microextraction, or SPME, is a solid phase extraction sampling technique that involves the use of a fiber coated with an extracting phase, that can be a liquid or a solid (), [1] which extracts different kinds of analytes (including both volatile and non-volatile) from different kinds of media, that can be in liquid or gas phase.

[1] According to the science-based research database, Scopus, he is considered to be the leading scientist in the study of jute worldwide. [2] [3] He is currently serving as the Scientific Advisor of Bangladesh Jute Mills corporation (BJMC).
Corchorus is a genus of about 40–100 species of flowering plants in the family Malvaceae, native to tropical and subtropical regions throughout the world. [1]Different common names are used in different contexts, with jute applying to the fiber produced from the plant, and jute mallow leaves for the leaves used as a vegetable.
