Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hyperspectral imaging analysis, and particularly relates to a multifunctional hyperspectral imaging analysis system applicable to multiple application fields. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of modern agriculture, biotechnology and environmental science, the demand for efficient, non-destructive, accurate and comprehensive plant sample detection technologies is increasing day by day. Traditional detection methods have deficiencies in quantitative analysis and non-contact detection, unable to provide real-time, non-destructive and accurate data, and often difficult to comprehensively and accurately reflect the physiological state of plants.

[0003] Hyperspectral imaging products on the market are usually limited to the imaging analysis of the reflected light on the surface of plants; chlorophyll fluorescence imaging technology focuses on the temporal dynamic changes of chlorophyll fluorescence, lacking in-depth analysis of the fluorescence spectral characteristics; UV-MCF imaging is mainly multi-spectral imaging analysis, and only two-dimensional imaging analysis can be performed on the fluorescence (multi-spectral fluorescence) at four wavelengths of F440, F520, F690, and F740, but the characteristic peaks of different samples are also different. In addition, although the chlorophyll fluorescence spectrum and UV-MCF bioluminescence spectrum contain rich information, there is currently no commercial instrument that can provide hyperspectral imaging and analysis of chlorophyll fluorescence and bioluminescence, and there is a lack of products that can comprehensively analyze the plant phenotype from hyperspectral imaging, multi-excitation light-excited chlorophyll fluorescence hyperspectral imaging and bioluminescence hyperspectral imaging.

[0004] Based on this, a multifunctional hyperspectral imaging analysis system that can comprehensively analyze the physical and chemical properties of plants, photosynthetic phenotypes, biochemical components, physiological states, food, and the quality of traditional Chinese medicines, integrating reflected hyperspectral imaging, multi-excitation light-excited chlorophyll fluorescence hyperspectral imaging and ultraviolet light-excited bioluminescence hyperspectral imaging, is crucial for the comprehensive research of plant phenotypes, detection and identification of germplasm resources, crop genetic breeding, food, and detection and identification of the quality of traditional Chinese medicines.

[0014] (III) Beneficial effects

[0015] First, the imaging light source of the system is equipped with a variety of excitation light sources, including red light, blue light, green light, etc. Through the hyperspectral multi-functional imaging unit, it realizes the comprehensive analysis function of the multi-excitation light excited chlorophyll fluorescence of the experimental sample in the hyperspectral dimension. Light sources of different wavelengths will excite chlorophyll fluorescence with specific spectral characteristics, and these spectral characteristics not only reflect the chemical state of chlorophyll itself, but also reveal the response mechanism of plants to different light qualities.

Moreover, bioluminescence is autofluorescence and is not affected by external ambient light. The collected data only represents the information specific to the sample. This not only reduces the experimental complexity and cost, but also improves the experimental efficiency and accuracy, enriches the dimension and information volume of experimental data, enhances the flexibility and scalability of the experiment, and thus realizes more refined observation of experimental samples.

At the same time, due to the high integration and flexibility of the system, users can freely select and combine different imaging modes according to specific research needs to achieve personalized experimental design and data analysis.
