abstract
stink bugs are significant pests of cotton in the southeastern usa, causing millions of dollars in control costs and crop losses each year. new methods to detect stink bug damage must be investigated in order to reduce these costs and optimize pesticide applications. one such method would be to detect the volatile organic compounds (vocs) emitted from cotton plants damaged by stink bugs. a portable device was developed to draw vocs from the head space of a cotton boll over carbon black-polymer composite sensors. from the response of these sensors, this device would indicate if the boll was fed upon by a stink bug or not. the device was 100% accurate in distinguishing bolls damaged by stink bugs from undamaged controls when tested under training conditions. however, the device was only 57.1% accurate in distinguishing damaged fromundamaged bolls when tested 24 h after it was trained.these results indicated that this device was capable of classifying cotton as damaged or undamaged by differentiating vocs released from undamaged or damaged bolls, but improvements in design are required to address sensitivity to fluctuations in environmental conditions.
臭蟲是美國東南部棉花的重要害蟲,每年造成數(shù)百萬美元的控制成本和作物損失。為了降低成本,優(yōu)化農(nóng)藥應用,必須研究檢測臭蟲危害的新方法。其中一種方法是檢測由臭蟲破壞的棉花植株釋放的揮發(fā)性有機化合物(voc)。開發(fā)了一種在碳黑聚合物復合傳感器上從棉鈴頭部空間提取揮發(fā)性有機化合物的便攜式裝置。從這些傳感器的反應來看,這個裝置可以顯示出棉鈴是否被臭蟲叮咬過。在訓練條件下進行測試時,該裝置能100%準確地分辨出臭蟲破壞的棉鈴和未受損的對照棉鈴。然而,經(jīng)過24小時的試驗,該裝置在區(qū)分受損棉鈴和未受損棉鈴方面的準確率僅為57.1%,這些結(jié)果表明,該裝置能夠通過區(qū)分從未受損棉鈴釋放的voc,將棉花分為受損棉鈴和未受損棉鈴,但需要改進環(huán)境檢測條件波動性設(shè)計,比如增加樣品溫度等;以解決傳感器敏感性問題
