Terahertz Food Engineering Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses spectroscopic methods to investigate the condition and structure of foods and agricultural products.
AboutAbout the lab
Examining foods and crops with spectroscopic methods
The Terahertz Food Engineering Lab is part of the Food and Natural Products Chemistry chair in the Department of Agricultural Chemistry, Graduate School of Agricultural Science.
Associate Professor Ishikawa studies foods and agricultural products using spectroscopic analysis. The main recent research themes listed are evaluating the state of water in crops and foods, and developing nondestructive methods for estimating the growth and quality of crops.
Associate Professor Ishikawa also lists the analysis of the relationship between the structure and physical properties of food polymers, and the development of spectroscopic imaging devices and their application to agriculture, as main research themes.
Professor Fujii lists bioengineering and food engineering as research keywords.
Key terms
- Spectroscopic analysis
- A method of examining the properties of a substance by shining light on it and observing how it responds at each wavelength
- Nondestructive
- Measuring something without damaging or altering the object being examined
- Spectroscopic imaging
- A technology that captures light information at each wavelength as an image, location by location
ResearchResearch themes
Associate Professor Ishikawa of this lab examines the condition of crops and foods using spectroscopic analysis, seeking to capture the state of water and the relationship between the structure and physical properties of food polymers. The lab also works on developing methods for nondestructively estimating crop quality and on spectroscopic imaging devices.
