Indian Tea Discriminator: SVM Approach

Artificial Organoleptic Systems are being used today for a variety of detection tasks from quality control of food products to medical diagnosis. The optimization of sample preparation, signal processing, feature extraction, classifier are as important as choice of sensors within the array in enhancing the performance of the organoleptic system. It is difficult to determine if all features cons...

Chromosome Constitution of Some Indian Tea Clones

Resultant of large-scale spontaneous hybridization between Camellia taxa, the present day commercial tea clones are highly variable and heterozygous. It is in this context that thirty two UPASl and other tea clones were investigated with regard to comparative karyomorphology and meiotic pairing properties so as to ascertain the nature and extent of intra and interclonal differentiation. Barring...

Adsorption of Heavy Metal (Cu, Ni and Zn) from Synthetic Waste Water by Tea Waste Adsorbent

Industrial waste constitutes the major source of various kinds of metal pollution in natural water. There are at least 20 metals which cannot be degraded or destroyed. The important toxic metals are Cu, Ni and Zn. There are numerous methods currently employed to remove and recover the metals from our environment and many physicochemical methods have been proposed for their removal from wastewat...
