High throughput determination of protein characteristics and proximate analysis of seeds$44.8Kvalue2020start2020end

The proposed project is an equipment investment to build a deep-learning application to create a system for automated protein determination of pulses. The project team has completed the proof-of-concept work that used mid-infrared (IR) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy separately on pea samples to determine the seed nutritional qualities. The acquisition of the proposed advanced equipment is essential to move to towards an automated sampling system through extensive testing and machine learning.
