The use of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) to evaluate the nutritional quality of peanut kernels has potential applications in plant breeding as a rapid, non-destructive tool for seed/plant selection, and in quality control. We investigated the feasibility of applying NIRS to the estimation of essential mineral composition in peanut kernels using two sample sets: A, comprising 56 div...... hiện toàn bộ
Detecting single Bacillus spores by surface enhanced Raman spectroscopySensing and Instrumentation for Food Quality and Safety - Tập 2 - Trang 247-253 - 2008

Detection of Bacillus spores is of considerable importance to the food industry since they can survive standard processing procedures and sanitation treatments. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) coupled with gold SERS-active substrates was used to detect and discriminate among five Bacillus spores (B. cereus ATCC 13061, B. cereus ATCC 10876, B. cereus sp., B. subtilis sp., and B. stearoth...... hiện toàn bộ
Time-resolved reflectance spectroscopy for non-destructive assessment of food qualitySensing and Instrumentation for Food Quality and Safety - Tập 2 - Trang 82-89 - 2008

In the majority of most food and feed, visible, and near infrared light undergoes multiple scattering events and the overall light distribution is determined more by scattering rather than absorption due to the microscopic spatial changes in the refractive index. Conventional steady state reflectance spectroscopy can provide information on light attenuation, which depends both on light absorption ...... hiện toàn bộ
Rapid colorimetric detection of proteins and bacteria using silver reduction/precipitation catalyzed by gold nanoparticlesSensing and Instrumentation for Food Quality and Safety - Tập 2 - Trang 34-42 - 2007

A colorimetric immunoassay has been developed based on the reduction and precipitation of silver ions catalyzed by colloidal gold. This method was evaluated for a noncompetitive heterogeneous immunoassay to detect ovalbumin as a model protein and Escherichia coli as model bacterium. The influence of relevant experimental variables, including the reaction time of antigen with antibody, the dilution...... hiện toàn bộ
Fusarium damage assessment in wheat kernels by Vis/NIR hyperspectral imagingSensing and Instrumentation for Food Quality and Safety - Tập 5 - Trang 63-71 - 2011
Stephen R. Delwiche, Moon S. Kim, Yanhong Dong
Fusarium head blight is a fungal disease that affects the world’s small grains, such as wheat and barley. Attacking the spikelets during development, the fungus causes a reduction of yield and grain of poorer processing quality. Secondary metabolites that often accompany the fungus, such as deoxynivalenol (DON), are health concerns to humans and livestock. Conventional grain inspection procedures ...... hiện toàn bộ
Magnetoelastic biosensor for the detection of Salmonella typhimurium in food productsSensing and Instrumentation for Food Quality and Safety - - 2007

In this article, a magnetoelastic sensor immobilized with polyclonal antibody for the detection of Salmonella typhimurium in food products is described. The remote query nature of magnetoelastic sensors enables the detection of bacterial species in sealed and opaque containers. Bacterial binding to the antibody on the sensor surfaces changed the resonance parameters, and these changes were quantif...... hiện toàn bộ
