Software for microbial fingerprinting by means of the infrared spectra
نویسنده
چکیده
Two computer programs were designed for helping in library handling and microbial identification by means of their infrared spectra. The program 'Transform' runs in the IR Data Manager environment and produces ASCII files containing transformed data from infrared absorbance spectra. The program 'WinSpectra' is written in Visual Basic v. 3.0. It imports the ASCII files created with 'Transform', and is able to handle, analyse and identify them by their mathematical comparison with a library of microbial spectra. Both programs run in graphical, menu-driven interface (GEM and MS Windows, for IBM-PC compatibles, with extensive on-line help.

Authentication and quality control of some polyherbal oils used in Persian Traditional Medicine (PTM)
Background and objectives: Traditional polyherbal oils are still in use in Persian Traditional Medicine (PTM). Most of these formulations are prepared via traditional procedures such as maceration of herbs in oils or evaporating aqueous herbal extracts in boiling or heating oils as the vehicle. Thus, their quality control, standardization and authentication are real challenges ...
