Molecular recognition of sugars and a practical method to detect and discriminate among a large number of such similar analytes remain substantial scientific challenges. We report here a low-cost, simple colorimetric sensor array capable of identification and quantification of sugars and related compounds. Fifteen different monosaccharides, disaccharides, and artificial sweeteners were differen...

A modification of the serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase colorimetric assay is described which reduces the error due to preformed keto acids, and thus permits evaluation of “corrected” transaminase levels in serum specimens that have stood on the clot up to three weeks at 40 Evidence is presented that even in bacterially contaminated specimens the major cause of elevation in levels during stor...

Color errors in scanners arise from two sources: the non-colorimetric nature of the scanner sensitivities and the measurement noise. Several measures of goodness have been used to evaluate scanners based on these errors. In this paper, the trustworthiness of these measures is studied through simulations. A new measure incorporating both the above sources of errors and providing excellent agreem...

A colorimetric modeling technique is proposed to give a computational model associated with colorimetry so that the representation of color acquired from camera imaging is accurate and meaningful. First of all, the camera spectral responses are estimated and the colorimetric quality is evaluated to reveal the feasibility of this work. In the modeling process, we present a spectral matching meth...

In this paper we assess the quality of colorimetric calibration of HDR images captured using the multi-exposure technique. Three cameras were used to take HDR photographs of 4 scenes containing a color checker chart (XRite) and custom color patches. These were also measured using a spectrometer to provide ground truth data. One of the scenes was then used as a training for 2 camera calibration ...

To characterize color values measured by color devices (e.g., scanners, color copiers, and color cameras) in a deviceindependent fashion these values must be transformed to colorimetric tristimulus values. The measured RGB 3-vectors are not a linear transformation away from such colorimetric vectors, however, but still the best transformation between these two data sets, or between RGB values m...

Biologics manufacturing requires the clearance of Host Cell Proteins (HCPs) from recombinant therapeutic protein to acceptable low levels to ensure product purity and patient safety. To ensure adequate removal, a highly sensitive method, commonly in the form of Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), is necessary to quantify the HCPs amount in process intermediates and drug substance. We rep...

This study proposes a feasible method for spectral color reproduction based on a node address array selection technique from CIE tristimulus values. In this method three-dimensional lookup table (3-D LUT) has been constructed to connect the node address array and the spectrum as the source and destination spaces. First we present a general framework for how to reproduce spectral color. Then res...
