Biologic Data Analysis for Contract N00014-69-C-0390.

Abstract

The project involves acquisition and analysis of micro-spectrophotometric data in the presence of noise. Bacteria at cryogenic temperatures submitted to ultraviolet radiation emit both phosphorescent and fluorescent radiation. Certain characteristics of this radiation appear to be unique to a given species of bacteria and thus may be a basis for identification of bacteria. The object of this study is to obtain a working system for extracting parameters of micro-spectrophotometric data in the presence of noise. Two main areas are covered. They are data acquisition, equipment interface and noise reduction, and mathematical analysis.
