Abstract: (515 Views)
Objectives: This research aims to provide an optical technique based on telemetry to non-invasively check the quality of apple fruit and determine whether it is healthy or unhealthy.
Method & Materials: In this research, diffuse reflectance spectrometry and spectrum-based imaging method have been used.
Results: Optical properties of fruits, such as light absorption and scattering characteristics, change with biochemical activities during storage. Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) system has been widely used for non-invasive observation of biological tissues. The results showed that the changes in chlorophyll, water and flesh texture of apple can be investigated and monitored non-invasively and non-destructively. We also observed significant differences in absorption and reduction of scattering coefficients between Iranian apples.
Conclusions: The reflectometry method is a method of quantitative analysis of information obtained from various methods and is a safe and non-destructive method for evaluating fruits and food products.
