Smartphone-based digital image colorimetry for the determination of total capsaicinoid content in chili pepper extracts
PublicationA simple smartphone-based digital image colorimetry was proposed for the determination of total capsaicinoid content and the assessment of chili pepper pungency. The biobased solvent D-limonene was used for the first time to isolate analytes. Capsaicinoids were efficiently separated from chili pepper by solid-liquid extraction with D-limonene followed by partitioning of the analytes into the ammonium hydroxide solution to eliminate...

Alkyl polyglycoside-assisted separation followed by smartphone-based digital image colorimetry for on-site determination of total phenolic content in plant-based milk alternatives
PublicationA low-cost lab-on-a-smartphone platform for rapid and on-site assessment of total phenolic content in plant-based milk alternatives has been proposed for the first time. The three main components, including a smartphone, a disposable Eppendorf vial and a specially designed holder with an integrated polychromatic light source, were compactly assembled to enable color-forming reaction, separation and measurement. The method involves...

Light box for investigation of characteristics of optoelectronics detectors
PublicationIn this paper, a light box for investigation of characteristics of optoelectronic detectors is described. The light box consists of an illumination device, an optical power sensor and a mechanical enclosure. The illumination device is based on four types of high-power light emitting diodes (LED): white light, red, green and blue. The illumination level can be varied for each LED independently by the driver and is measured by optical...
