Detection of Chlorpyrifos Residues in Akesu Red Fuji Apple based on Near Infrared Spectrum

[Objective] The paper was to explore a method for detecting chlorpyrifos residues in red Fuji apple. [Method] The original spectral data of apple samples sprayed with different volume fractions of chlorpyrifos were collected using near infrared spectrometer at the band of 4 000-10 000 cm^（-1）. The original spectra were pre-treated by a variety of methods, and partial least squares（PLS） model was established for predictive analysis. [Result] Near infrared spectrum showed sensitivity to apple samples sprayed with different volume fractions of chlorpyrifos, but had low precision on pesticide-free samples. Data of blank control group were further eliminated for modeling prediction. The results showed that the results were the best when pre-treated with first derivative（FD）： R=0.987 9; the square error of prediction（SEP） was 0.173 6; the root-mean-square error of cross-validation（RMSECV） was 0.120 5; and the precision was 0.923 4. [Conclusion] Near infrared spectrum can better predict chlorpyrifos residue, providing a new method for detecting chlorpyrifos residues in Akesu red Fuji apple.

Determination of Spectrum Characteristic of Near Infrared Radiated by Indirect Moxibustion

MS96A type spectrum analyzer was applied to determine the spectral characteristic of near infrared radiated by moxa stick moxi-bustion, ginger-partitioned moxibustion, garlicpartitioned moxibustion and Aconium Carmichaeli-p ar titioned moxibustion. The spectrum of moxa stick moxibustion was relatively discrete and several wave crests are appeared. But in the spectrum of ginger-partitioned moxibustion, garlic-partitioned moxibustion or Aconium Carmichaeli partitioned moxibustion, a specific and relatively steady wave crest formed respectively. It was concluded different indirect moxibustion could bring respective spectrum of near infrared and have the relevant physiologic and biochemical effects.

Research on Variable Selection of Protein in Soy Lysine Spectroscopy Based on Latent Projective Graph

[Objectives] This study was conducted to solve the problems of complex near-infrared spectrum information of soybean lysine, serious collinearity and insufficient predictive ability of full-spectrum modeling. [Methods] A new variable selection method, i.e., variable combination model population analysis method, was used to select characteristic wavelengths of soybean lysine near infrared spectra. The binary matrix sampling strategy and exponential decay function were used at first to delete the variables providing no information and select the near-infrared characteristic wavelengths of soybean lysine, which were then combined the partial least square method to establish a prediction model. Compared with other variable selection methods, the Monte Carlo variable combination model population analysis method selected the least wavelength points and the model had the strongest predictive ability. The variable combination model population analysis method adopting the binary matrix sampling strategy made up for the shortcomings of the single Monte Carlo sampling method. [Results] The experimental results showed that the Monte Carlo variable combination model population analysis algorithm could better select the characteristic wavelengths of soybean lysine NIR spectra and improve the reliability of the prediction model. However, in general, the accuracy of the lysine prediction model is not satisfactory, and it needs to be further reconstructed and optimized in future research work. The reason might be that the determination accuracy of the chemical value of lysine content was insufficient, or it might be caused by the poor absorption of the hydrogen-containing group of lysine in the near-infrared spectrum region and the poor correlation with proteins. [Conclusions] This study provides a reference for soybean high-lysine breeding.
