  • NON-DESTRUCTIVE ASSAY FOR SOYBEAN SEEDS USING NEAR INFRARED ANALYSIS
    Publication number: 20240060886
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for spectral imaging of soybean samples to accurately and non-destructively measure the amount of sucrosyl-oligosaccharide in the soybean samples. Populations containing modified and unmodified soybean seeds and having varying amounts of sucrosyl-oligosaccharides, oil or protein can be sorted and separated and further used in soybean processing or breeding.
    Type: Application
    Filed: April 22, 2023
