Do NIR spectra collected from laboratory-reared mosquitoes differ from those collected from wild mosquitoes?

BACKGROUND:Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a high throughput technique that measures absorbance of specific wavelengths of light by biological samples and uses this information to classify the age of lab-reared mosquitoes as younger or older than seven days with an average accuracy greater than...
