[0221] The t2 distribution fingerprint of Shanxi scorpion powder solution (FIG. 24) can be obtained by subtracting the reference surface F(x,y) from f.sub.n(τ.sub.1, n).

[0222] The present invention has the following features which are different from previous methods and technologies:

[0223] 1. Based on the feature that the .sup.1H T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 relaxation properties are different in different edible oils or other liquid-like samples, the method in the present invention breaks through the limitation of previous works using only .sup.1H T.sub.2 relaxation to detect and identify edible oils or other liquid-like samples, innovatively proposes to amplify .sup.1H T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 relaxation differences of edible oils or other liquid-like samples by measuring two-dimensional .sup.1H T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 relaxation data containing relaxation properties of edible oils or other liquid-like samples, thus realize the detection and identification of edible oils or other liquid-like samples;

[0224] 2. Based on the above idea, a new pulse sequence and the corresponding data acquisition method are developed to be used to amplify the .sup.1H T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 relaxation differences of different edible oils or other liquid-like samples;

[0225] 3. A ‘fingerprint spectrum’ containing the .sup.1H T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 relaxation properties of edible oils or other liquid-like samples is constructed. The fingerprint can be used as a standard to distinguish different types of edible oil or other liquid-like samples, meanwhile, its digital form is very suitable for constructing the big data of edible oils or other liquid-like samples and the authenticity judgments based on artificial intelligence.

[0226] 4. The method in the present invention can be used om high-resolution nuclear magnetic instruments and low-field magnetic resonance relaxometry, overcoming the dependence of the patent CN108982570A on the nuclear magnetic resonance signal resolution. At the same time, the measurement of .sup.1H T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 relaxation properties overcomes the low discrimination of the traditional method caused by only measuring the individual .sup.1H T.sub.2 relaxation.

[0227] 5. Compared with the traditional chromatographic, mass spectrometry and the optical spectroscopy, the method in the present invention can realize a non-destructive sample testing without sample pretreatment. The method can be implemented on a low-field magnetic resonance instrument which can achieve a rapid on-site detection by moving on board.

[0228] It should be understood that the term “and/or” used in the present invention is only to describe a relationship between associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, i.e A and/or B can mean three conditions: A alone, A and B, and B alone. In addition, the character “/” in the present invention generally indicates that the associated objects before and after being in an ‘or’ relationship.

[0229] The protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the idea of the invention, all changes and advantages that can be thought of by a person skilled in the field are included in the present invention and are protected by the attached claims.
