Popis: Non-targeted NMR is widely accepted as a powerful and robust analytical tool for food control. Nevertheless, standardized procedures based on validated methods are still needed when a non-targeted approach is adopted. Interlaboratory comparisons carried out in recent years have demonstrated the statistical equivalence of spectra generated by different instruments when the sample was prepared by the same operator. The present study focused on assessing the reproducibility of NMR spectra of the same matrix when different operators performed individually both the sample preparation and the measurements using their spectrometer. For this purpose, two independent laboratories prepared 63 tomato samples according to a previously optimized procedure and recorded the corresponding 1D 1H NMR spectra. A classification model was built using the spectroscopic fingerprint data delivered by the two laboratories to assess the geographical origin of the tomato samples. The performance of the optimized statistical model was satisfactory, with a 97.62% correct sample classification rate. The results of this work support the suitability of NMR techniques in food control routines even when samples are prepared by different operators by using their equipment in independent laboratories.
