On the estimation of sugars concentrations using Raman spectroscopy and artificial neural networks.

Food chemistry
In this paper, we present an analysis of the performance of Raman spectroscopy, combined with feed-forward neural networks (FFNN), for the estimation of concentration percentages of glucose, sucrose, and fructose in water solutions. Indeed, we analys...

Deep Learning for Non-Invasive Diagnosis of Nutrient Deficiencies in Sugar Beet Using RGB Images.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In order to enable timely actions to prevent major losses of crops caused by lack of nutrients and, hence, increase the potential yield throughout the growing season while at the same time prevent excess fertilization with detrimental environmental c...

Impact of microwave-assisted extraction on roasted coffee carbohydrates, caffeine, chlorogenic acids and coloured compounds.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) allows to quickly achieve soluble compounds from solid matrices due to the promotion of temperatures higher than the solvent (atmospheric) boiling point, once a closed-vessel system is used for operating at high pr...

Consumption of illegal home-made alcohol in Malawi: A neglected public health threat.

Alcohol (Fayetteville, N.Y.)
This study assessed the ethanol and methanol contents of homemade spirit (Kachasu) sold in Blantyre, Malawi. The likelihood of ethanol and methanol toxicity, respectively, was determined through Monte Carlo simulations using reported Kachasu intake v...
