PI Comparisons
Fall 2010-Spring 2011 Segregate females using FT-IR with multiple year classes
Refine/optimize both FT-IR and SW-NIR models
Explore SW-NIR probe design
Accomplishments to Date Plasma sex steroids, SW-NIR, and FT-IR can
be used to predict early atresia with 70-95% accuracy
Oocyte PI may be predicted from SW-NIR and
FT-IR spectra; model development continues Highly variable caviar yield appears to be caused
by ovarian adiposity
