[Detection of Late Blight Disease on Potato Leaves Using Hyperspectral Imaging Technique].

Hyperspectral imaging feature on potato leaves stressed by late blight was studied in the present paper. The experiment used 60 potato leaves. Among those 60 potato leaves, 48 leaves were vitro inoculated with pathogen of potato late blight, the rest 12 leaves were used as control samples.

[Kinetic models for determination of yeast in fresh jujube using near infrared spectroscopy].

The objectives of this study were: (1) to optimize a near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy model for fresh jujube stored at room temperature to predict the quality change (yeast growth), (2) to establish a kinetic model of yeast growth for fresh jujubes at room temperature according to NIR spectroscopy data and storage time, and (3) to predict the shelf life of fresh jujube at room temperature. The Lizao samples of fresh jujubes were adopted as the research object in the study. The NIR spectral data were achieved before yeast infection level measured.

[Discrimination of the fresh jujube varieties and dehiscent fruit by NIR spectroscopy].

There are many fresh jujube varieties. The different variety has different quality. In addition, dehiscent fruit easily rot and the rotten fruit contaminated the full fruit very rapidly.

[Measurement of cooking loss and tenderness of fresh pork using visible/near infrared spectroscopy].

Cooking loss and tenderness are important quality characteristics of fresh pork. To find a rapid, non-destructive and non-contaminated method to measure them, visible/near infrared spectroscopy was proposed for measurement of cooking loss and tenderness of vacuum-packed pork loin. The acquired raw spectra were pretreated by Savisky-Golay smoothing, second derivative and MSC, respectively using the software of Unscrambler 9.

Association study of tumor necrosis factor receptor type 2 M196R and toll-like receptor 2 Arg753Gln polymorphisms with acne vulgaris in a Chinese Han ethnic group.

Background: Inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2) and Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) are the main responsible mediators of inflammatory acne. Factors affecting their production may possibly influence the degree of inflammatory response and hence may account for the clinical severity of acne. However, the roles of TNFR2 and TLR2 in the pathophysiology of acne vulgaris are poorly understood.

[Correlation between CYP17 gene polymorphisms and female post adolescent acne in Han population in Hunan Province].

Objective: To explore the correlation between androgen-related CYP17 gene polymorphisms and female post adolescent acne in Han population in Hunan Province.

Methods: The female patients with post adolescent acne and high levels of androgen (A group), those without high levels of androgen (B group) and healthy subjects (C group) were enrolled. The CYP17 gene polymorphism was investigated by PCR using DNA samples from peripheral blood lymphocytes.

[Prediction of water holding capacity of fresh pork using near infrared spectroscopy].

Water holding capacity (WHC) is an important quality characteristic of fresh pork. It is necessary to determinate it by a rapid and nondestructive method in order to reduce the loss of meat. Near infrared spectroscopy as a new method was proposed for rapid and nondestructive measurement of WHC of vacuum-packed pork loin.

[Detection of fatty acid composition in intramuscular fat of packed pork loin by near infrared spectroscopy].

Near infrared spectroscopy as a new method was proposed for rapid and non-destructive measurement of fatty acid composition in intramuscular fat of packed pork loin. Gas chromatography was used as a reference method for the spectral analysis of fatty acid composition. The fiber optic in interactance mode was adopted to measure the spectra of packed pork loins by low density polythene.
