Abstract Free living nematodes (FLN) are microscopic worms found in all soils. While many FLN species beneficial to crops, some cause significant damage by feeding on roots and vectoring viruses. With the planned legislative removal of traditionally used chemical treatments, identification new ways manage populations has become a high priority. For this, more powerful screening systems required rapidly assess threats crops identify treatments efficiently. Here, we have developed live assays...

The aim of this study was to develop a kefir apple-based vinegar and evaluate fermentation process using new methodology with Biospeckle Laser. Brazilian grains were inoculated in apple must for production. In study, the microbial community present kefir, correspondent vinegar, investigated Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization - Time Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) technique. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Lactobacillus paracasei, plantarum, Acetobacter pasteurianus syzygii species...

Biospeckle laser technique has become an important tool to investigate biological activity in several areas of science. However, due the complexity materials it is necessary develop research processes that ensure greater efficiency isolating different activities same material using biospeckle. Thus, alternative techniques, such as those related spectral domain, allow approaches provide a means for frequency and isolation marking various observed phenomena. The possibility creating markers...

Biospeckle is a technique whose purpose to observe and study the underlying activity of some material. It has its roots in optical physics, first step an image acquisition process that produces video sequence reflection laser. The content can be analyzed have interpretation observed literature on this subject presents several different measures for analyzing sequence. Three most popular are generalized difference (GD), weighted (WGD), Fujii's method. These drawbacks such as high computation...

Among the features of beef quality, color is a major factor that influences marketing since it only characteristic consumers can see at time purchase, although tenderness organoleptic trait most affects consumer acceptance beef. Thus, an effective technology to predict meat quality highly desirable for industry. many emerging technologies, optical methods have greatest potential they are fast, nondestructive, and generally low cost. This study evaluated application laser biospeckle technique...

This work presents a study of new technology applied in quality tests oranges. Evaluations were performed using nondestructive and noninvasive method based on the interpretation an optical phenomenon that occurs when fruit is illuminated with coherent light, referred as biospeckle. The speckle patterns laser light scattered orange fruits have been measured through their quantification. For quantification variation by biospeckle, autocorrelation function modified occurrence matrix used. From...

Shining a laser onto biological material produces light speckles termed biospeckles. Patterns of biospeckle activity reflect changes in cell biochemistry, developmental processes and responses to the environment. The aim this work was develop methods investigate roots characterize distribution its intensity response thigmostimuli. Biospeckle Zea mays, also Jatropha curcas Citrus limonia, imaged live situ using portable digital microscope with spatial resolution 10 μm per pixel ability...
