A method and a system for jointly determining the content of a first chromophorous and fluorescent compound and a second chromophorous compound in a biological tissue (30). The determination of the content of the chromophorous and fluorescent compound (33) is carried out by optical measurement of the differential absorption of this chromophorous and fluorescent compound (33) and the determination of the content of the second chromophorous compound (34) is carried out by optical measurement of the fluorescence of the chromophorous and fluorescent compound (33). Optical radiations (11-14) are utilized which are suitably chosen in combination with at least one operation of filtering these radiations suited to using single detection (21) and measurement element for the two determinations.

The invention relates to a method and a device for determining the ratio between the contents of chlorophyll and of a chromophore compound that is non-fluorescent in the chlorophyll fluorescence band, in a vegetable tissue without determining said contents. The method comprises: emitting two excitation radiations of the chlorophyll fluorescence, one of the excitation radiations being absorbed by the chromophore compound and the other not; measuring the induced fluorescence radiations, the fluorescence radiation induced by the excitation radiation absorbed by the chromophore compound being measured outside the chlorophyll absorption spectrum and the fluorescence radiation induced by the excitation radiation not absorbed by the chromophore compound being measured within the chlorophyll absorption spectrum; determining the contents ratio from the ratio of the measured fluorescence radiations. The invention can be used for measuring an indicator called NBI (Nitrogen Balance Index) of plant nitrogen nutrition.

Abrégé

The invention relates to an apparatus for analysing plants by light excitation and fluorescence measurement that can be used in-situ without preparing the plants. The invention further relates to an apparatus for evaluating the content of a compound in the skin or the epidermis of the plant. Based on the use of such an apparatus, the invention also relates to a method for evaluating and tracking the evolution and maturation of a culture, and to a method for controlling and managing plant processing. The geometry of the apparatus is characterised in that the direction of the excitation light rays and the direction of the fluorescent light rays are not colinear. The apparatus includes several sets of emitters at different wavelengths each including several emitters, and can be used for measuring a plurality of excitation-fluorescence combinations.

The invention relates to a method and a device for conjunctively determining the content of a first chromophorous and fluorescent compound and a second chromophorous compound in a biological tissue (30). The determination of the chromophorous and fluorescent compound (33) content is carried out by optically measuring the differential absorption of said chromophorous and fluorescent compound (33) and the determination of the of the content of the second chromophorous compound (34) is carried out by optically measuring the fluorescence of the chromophorous and fluorescent compound (33). The invention uses optical adequately selected radiation (11-14) in combination with at least one filtration operation of said radiation adapted so as to use unique detection and measuring means (21) for both determinations.
