TL;DR: The raw materials of a variety of herbal medicines were measured using nondestructive near-infrared spectroscopy with soft independent modeling of class analogy to build up the classification model and adulterated samples could be eliminated by the analysis of the model.

TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic fluorescence image index system capable of non-destructive assessment of water stress in cabbage seedlings was developed, where the quenching curves of chlorophyll fluorescence characteristic to the plant's water stress status under reduced excitation energy were acquired via a multispectral imaging system.

TL;DR: In this article, the NIR (near infrared) spectra combined with independent component analysis (ICA) technique was used to evaluate the rice freshness, and the best calibration model of white rice was developed using the smoothed first derivative spectra, five ICs and cross-validation.

TL;DR: This study successfully established qualitative and quantitative correlations for gentiopicroside and swertiamarin with near-infrared spectra, enabling rapid and accurate inspection on the bioactive components of G. scabra Bunge at different growth stages.

TL;DR: This study demonstrated low ethanol-gasoline blended fuels could be used in motorcycle carburetor engines without any modification to keep engine power while reducing exhaust pollutants.
