Teicoplanin (TCP) is an important lipoglycopeptide antibiotic produced by fermenting Actinoplanes teichomyceticus. The change in TCP concentration is important to measure in the fermentation process. In this study, a reagent-free and rapid quanti¯cation method for TCP in the TCP-Tris-HCl mixture samples was developed using near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy by focusing our attention on the fermentation process for TCP. The absorbance optimization (AO) partial least squares (PLS) was proposed and integrated with the moving window (MW) PLS, which is called AO-MW-PLS method, to select appropriate wavebands. A model set that includes various wavebands that were equivalent to the optimal AO-MW-PLS waveband was proposed based on statistical considerations. The public region of all equivalent wavebands was just one of the equivalent wavebands. The obtained public regions were 1540-1868 nm for TCP and 1114-1310 nm for Tris. The root-mean-square error and correlation coe±cient for leave-oneout cross validation were 0.046 mg mL À1 and 0.9998 mg mL À1 for TCP, and 0.235 mg mL À1 and 0.9986 mg mL À1 for Tris, respectively. All the models achieved highly accurate prediction e®ects, and the selected wavebands provided valuable references for designing specialized spectrometers. This study provided a valuable reference for further application of the proposed methods to TCP fermentation broth and to other spectroscopic analysis¯elds.
