Raw turkey breasts were aerobically or vacuum-packaged, irradiated with a linear accelerator, and frozen for 0, 1.5, or 3 mo. Lipid oxidation, volatiles, color values, gas production, and oxidation-reduction potential of the samples were determined. Irradiation produced off-odor volatiles associated with lipid oxidation and sulfur-volatiles; the off-odor was much higher in aerobic packaging. Vo...

Color induced texture analysis is explored, using two texture analysis techniques: the co-occurrence matrix and the color correlogram as well as color histograms. Several quantization schemes for six color spaces and the humanbased 11 color quantization scheme have been applied. The VisTex texture database was used as test bed. A new color induced texture analysis approach is introduced: the pa...

Article history: Available online 25 December 2012 In this paper, the modified color motif co-occurrence matrix (MCMCM) is presented for content-based image retrieval. The proposed method collects the inter-correlation between the red, green, and blue color planes which is absent in color motif co-occurrence matrix. The proposed method integrates the MCMCM and difference between the pixels of a...

A novel approach of Content Based Image Retrieval(CBIR), which combines color, texture and shape descriptors to represent the features of the image, is discussed in this paper. The proposed scheme is based on three noticeable algorithms: color distribution entropy(CDE), color level co-occurrence(CLCM) and invariant moments. CDE takes the correlation of the color spatial distribution in an image...

Integrative Co-occurrence matrices are introduced as novel features for color texture classi"cation. The extended Co-occurrence notation allows the comparison between integrative and parallel color texture concepts. The information pro"t of the new matrices is shown quantitatively using the Kolmogorov distance and by extensive classi"cation experiments on two datasets. Applying them to the RGB ...

       Heat stroke is the most complicated and dangerous amongst heat injuries that can lead to irreversible injury and even death with itself or with creating predisposibility to different diseases. The following case report depicts a patient who presented primarily with impairment of consciousness after walking 45 km in the summer heat to cross the Syria-Turkey border and la...

application of atoxigenic strains of aspergillus flavus to reduce aflatoxin levels is the most successful strategy applied in some agricultural crops. the role of ammonium hydroxide for preliminary screening of the competitiveness of atoxigenic a. flavus isolates to interfere with aflatoxin production by highly toxigenic isolates were evaluated. out of 270 a. flavus isolates, 17 were detected a...
