Abstract
In this study a combination of laser induced fluorescence (LIF) and principal component analysis (PCA) is used in an attempt to develop a method to detect fungal growth on silicone rubber. Field experiments on aged insulators have been carried out to test whether LIF combined with PCA can give useful information about the fungal growth.
