It was founded in 1884 as the Association of Official Agricultural Chemists (AOAC) and became AOAC International in 1991. It publishes standardized, chemical analysis methods designed to increase confidence in the results of chemical and microbiological analyses. Government agencies and civil organizations often require that laboratories use ...
Proximal gradient methods are a generalized form of projection used to solve non-differentiable convex optimization problems. A comparison between the iterates of the projected gradient method (in red) and the Frank-Wolfe method (in green). Many interesting problems can be formulated as convex optimization problems of the form
The method of images (or method of mirror images) is a mathematical tool for solving differential equations, in which boundary conditions are satisfied by combining a solution not restricted by the boundary conditions with its possibly weighted mirror image. Generally, original singularities are inside the domain of interest but the function is ...
The SNIF-NMR method has been adopted by the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) and the European Union as an official method for wine analysis. It is also an official method adopted by the Association Of Analytical Chemists (AOAC) for analysis of fruit juices, maple syrup, vanillin, and by the European Committee for ...
Food moisture analysis is the determination of the concentration of water in a food sample. A variety of techniques may be used including Karl Fischer titration and loss on drying. Many technical standards exist which define test methods for determining moisture in different types of food.
protein by analysis of total nitrogen, either by Dumas or Kjeldahl methods; total fat, traditionally by a solvent extraction, but often now by secondary methods such as NMR; crude ash (total inorganic matter) by combustion at 550 °C; estimated dietary fibre by various AOAC methods such as 985.29
Proximity analysis is a class of spatial analysis tools and algorithms that employ geographic distance as a central principle. [1] Distance is fundamental to geographic inquiry and spatial analysis, due to principles such as the friction of distance, Tobler's first law of geography, and Spatial autocorrelation, which are incorporated into analytical tools.

The Journal of AOAC International is a peer-reviewed scientific journal publishing research articles in the field of analytical chemistry and microbiology covering basic and applied research in analytical sciences related to foods, drugs, agriculture, the environment, and more. [1]
