In this work, the abilities of near-infrared diffuse reflectance (NIR) and transmittance (NIT) spectroscopy to noninvasively determine the protein, fat, and water contents of plastic-wrapped homogenized meat are evaluated. One hundred homogenized beef samples, ranging from 1 to 23% fat, wrapped in polyamide/polyethylene laminates, were used. Results of multivariate calibration and prediction for protein, fat, and water contents are presented. The optimal test set prediction errors (root mean square error of prediction, RMSEP), obtained with the use of the principal component regression method with NIR data, were 0.45, 0.29 and 0.50 weight % for protein, fat, and water, respectively, for plastic-wrapped meat (compared to 0.40, 0.28 and 0.45 wt % for unwrapped meat). The optimal prediction errors for the NIT method were 0.31, 0.52 and 0.42 wt % for protein, fat, and water, respectively, for plastic-wrapped meat samples (compared to 0.27, 0.38, and 0.37 wt % for unwrapped meat). We can conclude that the addition of the laminate only slightly reduced the abilities of the NIR and NIT method to predict protein, fat, and water contents in homogenized meat.

A proof-of-concept video camera for active spectral imaging nondestructive evaluation has been demonstrated. An active multispectral imaging technique has been implemented in the visible and near infrared by using light emitting diodes with wavelengths spanning from 400 to 970 nm. This shows how the camera can be used in nondestructive evaluation to inspect surfaces and spectrally identify materials and corrosion.

ABSTRACTWater uptake and resistivity have been determined for Dupont's Nafion-115®and Dow membrane 800 EW while in contact with a water-saturated nitrogen atmosphere using Fourier transform near-infrared (NIR), and AC impedance four point techniques in the temperature range of 23°C to 100°C. Results show that at room temperature there is a significant increase in water content and a corresponding decrease in the electrical resistivity as the relative humidity increases from 0% to 100%. Results also indicate that there is a substantial decrease in water uptake from water vapor at 100°C relative to that at 23°C. The water content of Dow membrane is higher than Nafion-115 under all conditions tested. The water contents of Dow PFSA 800 EW and Nafion-115 membranes at about 92% R.H. and 23°C are approximately 25 wt% and 18 wt%, respectively. The corresponding water content values at 100°C are 10 wt% and 8 wt%, respectively. The resistivity of the membranes decreases sharply with the temperature up to 60°C, reaches a minimum near 80°C then increases up to 100°C. The Dow membrane has lower resistivity than Nafion-115 over the entire range.
