The biomarkers related to the colorectal cancers and diseases were surveyed and summarized, and an optical electronic nose was researched and developed for their analysis. The prototyped sensor revealed that it could discriminate two gases: ethanol 2000 ppm and $CO_2$ 500 ppm. Furthermore, the sensor demonstrated the potential capability of estimation of $CO_2$ concentration with 95% confidence level. Based on the above experimental results, the developed optical electronic nose was tested with the mixtures of gases (Isopropyl Alcohol, Acetone, Methanol, and Toluene) and the biomarkers were successfully segregated using principal component analysis.

We have been developed an intelligent mobile robot with an artificial olfactory function to recognize odours and to track odour source location. This mobile robot also has been installed an engine for speech recognition and synthesis, and is controlled by wireless communication. An artificial olfactory system based on array of 7 gas sensors has been installed in the mobile robot for odour recognition, and 11 gas sensors also are located in the bottom of robot to track odour sources. 3 optical sensors are also included in the intelligent mobile robot, which is driven by 2 D.C. motors, for clash avoidance in a way of direction toward an odour source. Throughout the experimental trails, it is confirmed that the intelligent mobile robot is capable of not only the odour recognition using artificial neural network algorithm, but also the tracking odour source using the step-by-step approach method ...

The preliminary results are promising that intelligent mobile robot, which has been developed, is applicable to service robot system for environmental monitoring, localization of odour source, odour tracking of hazardous areas etc.

This study investigated quality characteristics of commercial frozen chopped garlic. We collected six kinds of commercial frozen chopped garlic, four of which were domestic and the remaining two made in China. The moisture contents and drip loss of domestic frozen chopped garlic were significantly lower than those of Chinese garlic. Drip loss was positively correlated with moisture content (r=0.918, P<0.01). Total pyruvate contents of frozen chopped garlic ranged from $118.69{\pm}5.97{\sim}224.81{\pm}9.92{\mu}mol/g$ in domestic garlic and $75.27{\pm}5.91{\sim}79.35{\pm}1.79{\mu}mol/g$ in Chinese garlic. Allicin contents of frozen chopped garlic ranged from $8.91{\pm}0.34{\sim}13.09{\pm}0.35mg/g$ in domestic garlic and $5.91{\pm}0.08{\sim}6.05{\pm}0.27mg/g$ in Chinese garlic. Total thiosulfinate content of commercial frozen chopped garlic ranged from $0.60{\pm}0.07{\sim}1.33{\pm}0.12$ optical density/g. Total thiosulfinate content of commercial frozen chopped garlic was positively correlated with allicin content (r=0.892, P<0.01). Flavor patterns of commercial frozen chopped garlic measured by an electronic nose showed no difference between domestic and Chinese garlics.
