Selection Models for the Internal Quality of Fruit, based on Time Domain Laser Reflectance Spectroscopy [PDF]
Time domain laser reflectance spectroscopy (TRS) was applied for the first time to evaluate internal fruit quality. This technique, known in medicine-related knowledge areas, has not been used before in agricultural or food research.

Predicting osmotic potential from measurements of refractive index in cherries, grapes and plums. [PDF]
Studies of fruit tree water relations often require data on water potentials of fruit. However, this is sometimes difficult because the fruit stalks are not sufficiently long for use in a pressure bomb.

Effect of concentration on the physical properties of cashew juice. [PDF]
Thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, density and viscosity of cashew juice were measured at 30 oC for soluble solids content ranging from 5.5 to 25 oBrix. Thermal conductivity and diffusivity were determined using a linear hest source probe.
