When the “Gold Standard” Meets “Green Technology”: A Comparison of Seed Oil Detection Methods
This study compares Soxhlet extraction, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and low‑field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF‑NMR) for seed oil analysis. LF‑NMR enables non‑destructive, rapid, and green monitoring of dynamic oil changes during germination, providing both T₂ relaxation data for oil content/fluidity and MRI for spatial distribution, making it ideal for process‑oriented research.
