Hyperspectral imaging (HSI): applications in animal and dairy sector
Journal Title: Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 0
Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI), also known as imaging spectroscopy or 3D spectroscopy, combines imaging and spectroscopy into a single system. With a high resolution measurement of spectral signatures, HSI is able to provide critical information of the target. Thus it is useful for various scientific and industrial applications, including food safety and disease diagnosis. Due to constantly increasing demands for safe animal products, there is pressure on the processing sector for applications of advanced, high throughput methods for non-destructive quality analysis of animal products. In this context, HSI finds its applications for grading, classification, quality & composition analysis of animal products including meat, egg, milk etc. Further, the technique is also a useful tool in poultry sector for assessment of wholesomeness and quality control of chicken carcasses, as well as, chicken meat products. In fish industry also, the technique has established its potential for determining freshness and quality attributes of sea-foods. Apart from quality control of animal products, HSI has also demonstrated its usefulness for disease diagnosis in animal models and for detection of mammary cancers in dogs. Thus, the future of HSI technology in animal industry is promising and associated with multivariate analysis, HSI technique will further dominate in animal products authentication and analysis in the future also.

Performance of wheat cultivars under irrigated late sown condition
Delay in time of sowing in rice-wheat cropping system is perhaps the one of the major factors responsible for low crop yield. An experimenton the wheat cultivars viz.DBW 14, BR 934, HI 1563, HD 2985 and NL was conducted...
Evalution of “indirect fluorescent antibody test as potential screening test for Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis using milk of lactating domestic livestock
In the present study, Indirect Fluorescent antibody test (iFAT) has been used as the “screening test” for the detection of MAP bacilli in the milk samples of lactating domestic livestock. A total of 372 milk samples from...
