| Abstract: | Valcarce, R. and Smith, G.G., 1989. Chemical characterization of honey bees by Curie-point pyrolysis-gas chromatography-pattern recognition. Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems, 6: 157-166.Curie-point pyrolysis-gas chromatography coupled with the application of three different multivariate pattern recognition programs [SPSS-X (hierarchical cluster analysis), MVSP (principal component analysis) and FCVPC-87 (fuzzy c-varieties pattern recognition)] was used to develop an alternative technique for discriminating European, African, Africanized, and F1, hybrid honey bees based on non-morphological characteristics. FCVPC-87 was also employed to evaluate the pyrograms for the discriminating chemical features responsible for differentiating these bees. The chemical identities of the discriminating peaks were determined by pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. |
