abstract:
Biospeckle – variable in time, interferential image, formed by scattering of coherent light on biological objects, more often is used in experimental, non-destructive techniques for quality evaluation of fruits and vegetables. Useful in the practical evaluation of quality parameter - biospeckle activity– obtained by application of various statistical methods of image analysis, is an indicator of biological activity or intensity of various metabolic processes. In previous studies of plant materials, biospeckle phenomenon has been successfully applied in detecting mechanical damage, infection by pathogens and evaluation of the stages of development, maturity and senescence Biospeckle activity also shows the correlation of the quality parameters and content of certain chemicals in plant tissues.
