Spectroscopy, microscopy and fluorescence imaging of origanum vulgare L. Basis for nondestructive quality assessment

The organs of Origanum vulgare L. plant were examined by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and autofluorescence imaging. The different organs were also studied spectroscopically. Fluorescence emission spectra were recorded for intact inflorescences, leaves and stems. Several fluoresce...
