This paper provides an overview of the principles and theory of measuring optical properties
of biological materials. It then presents the instrumentation and data analysis procedures for …

Background Bruising is a kind of subcutaneous tissue injury that does not involve the rupture
of fresh fruit epidermis. This damage can occur at any stage from picking, storage and …

Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy as an emerging analytical technique was used for the first
time to quantitatively detect the watercore degree and soluble solids content (SSC) in apple …

Soluble solids (SS) in fruit are mainly composed of soluble sugars. This research aims to
further the understanding of the detection mechanism of soluble solid content (SSC) based …

Bruising is one of the major challenges appearing in the postharvest grading and
processing of Lingwu long jujubes, which leads to quality deterioration and microbial …

Present studies have shown that near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) could be used to identify
the producing area of apple. However, we still do not know whether the producing area …

Near-infrared spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging technologies have been proved to
be able to detect invisible bruised kiwifruit. Therefore, it is doubted that the optical properties …

The advancement of computer science has encouraged engineers and researchers to use
simulation techniques for the design and evaluation of agricultural machinery and food …

Bruising degree can affect the end use and sales price of apples directly. In order to identify
the bruising degrees of apples quickly and accurately, using hyperspectral imaging …

Conventional optical property mapping by spatial-frequency domain imaging (SFDI) is prone
to relatively low efficiency due to the iterative nature of nonlinear curve-fitting based on light …
