Recently, a team led by Prof. Wang Rujing and Wang Liusan from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, developed a method to detect internal cracks in rice seeds using near-infrared spectroscopy.
Recently, a team led by Prof. Wang Rujing and Wang Liusan from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, developed a method to detect internal cracks in rice seeds using near-infrared spectroscopy.
“Cracks can affect the germination rate of seeds”, said Wang Liusan. “Our study can help select high-quality seeds with a non-destructive method.”
The research results were published in Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy.
