Detection of saffron adulteration with Crocus sativus style using NIR-hyperspectral imaging and chemometrics
Saffron is a valuable spice that is often adulterated. This study proposes using near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) and chemometrics as a fast and cost-effective method for detecting and quantifying adulteration in saffron stigmas. Adulterated saffron samples were prepared by adding Crocus sativus style to pure saffron stigmas in varying...
A dive into the physiological responses to maximal apneas, O2 and CO2 tables in apnea novices
Purpose Apnea duration is dependent on three factors: oxygen storage, oxygen consumption, hypoxia and hypercapnia tolerance. While current literature focuses on maximal apneas to improve apnea duration, apnea trained individuals use timed-repeated submaximal apneas, called "O-2 and CO2 tables". These tables claim to accommodate the body to cope wit...
Phosphorus-based variable rate manure application in wheat and barley
Manure is used as a source of nutrients and organic matter for agricultural lands, but its unbalanced use has unfortunately made nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) leakage to the environment quite common in Western Europe. One way to optimize the use of manure is variable rate (VR) application, wherein within field spatial variability of soil nutrien...
Corn yield prediction in site-specific management zones using proximal soil sensing, remote sensing, and machine learnin...
The integration of advanced technologies, such as soil proximal sensing, remote sensing, and machine learning, has revolutionized agricultural practices, particularly for corn yield prediction. This interdisciplinary approach harnesses the power of cutting-edge sensors to gather high-resolution data on soil conditions coupled with remote sensing te...
Potential of globally distributed topsoil mid-infrared spectral library for organic carbon estimation
...
Accurate monitoring of soil organic carbon (SOC) is critical for sustainable management of soil for improving its quality, function, and carbon sequestration. As a nondestructive, efficient, and low-cost technique, mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy has shown a great potential in rapid estimation of SOC, despite limited studies of the global scale. Th...
Incidence, predictors and vascular sequelae of distal limb ischemia in minimally invasive cardiac surgery with femoral a...
...
Literature regarding monitoring and consequences of distal limb ischemia due to femoral artery cannulation for Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS) remains limited. The primary objective was to determine its incidence, defined as a ≥ 15% difference in regional Oxygen Saturation (rSO2) lasting ≥ four consecutive minutes between the cannulated a...
Machine Learning Detects Intraventricular Haemorrhage in Extremely Preterm Infants
...
OBJECTIVE: To test the potential utility of applying machine learning methods to regional cerebral (rcSO2) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) signals to detect brain injury in extremely preterm infants. STUDY DESIGN: A subset of infants enrolled in the Management of Hypotension in Preterm infants (HIP) trial were analysed (n = 46). All eligibl...
Characterization of Pharmaceutical Tablets by X-ray Tomography
Solid dosage forms such as tablets are extensively used in drug administration for their simplicity and large-scale manufacturing capabilities. High-resolution X-ray tomography is one of the most valuable non-destructive techniques to investigate the internal structure of the tablets for drug product development as well as for a cost effective prod...
