Their detectiontechnique accurately spotted the presence of the cadavers, at times ranging up to 20 weeks after burial - the decomposition process eventually exhaust the supply of proteins.
That said, even if the fingerprint age problems becomes too difficult to tackle in the near future, this technique seems to hold promise on its own as a detectiontechnique that can be employed fairly quickly.
Researchers further claim to have automatic noise reduction that safeguards detail through bilateral filtering, an established technique that uses brightness detection to avoid blurring edges.
With this project she will develop a new label-free biomolecular detection method, based on a technique called Plasmon Resonance Energy Transfer (PRET), to monitor biochemical pathways involved in the differentiation of stem cells.
