Near-infrared spectroscopy. The giant is running strong

Abstract

Referredto as a "sleeper among spectroscopic techniques" (1), near-IR spectroscopy still languished in the shadows of analytical methodology as late as 1983. Davies (2), in preparation for the 1st International Conference on Near-Infrared Spectroscopy held in Norwich, U.K., in 1987, rang a verbal bell indicating it was "high time for the giant to wake up." The theme of the 2nd International Near-IR Spectroscopy Conference (Tsukuba, Japan, 1989) was "Time to Make the Sleeping Giant Go Running" (3). Today, we are pleased to report that near-IR spectroscopy is one of the fastest growing analytical technologies in the world. Truly, the giant is running strong.William Herschel discovered the near-IR region shortly before he read his first papers to the Royal Society of Lon-

Experimento didático de quimiometria para calibração multivariada na determinação de paracetamol em comprimidos comerciais utilizando espectroscopia no infravermelho próximo: um tutorial, parte II

“…Por apresentarem alta anarmonicidade e grande momento de dipolo, as principais bandas de absorção na região do infravermelho próximo são relacionadas à sobretons e bandas de combinação das transições vibracionais fundamentais dos grupos: C-H, N-H, O-H e S-H. Um aprofundamento sobre a teoria, instrumentação e atribuição de bandas para a espectroscopia NIR pode ser encontrado em livros 3,4 e artigos científicos. 5,6 Uma edição especial dedicada à espectroscopia NIR foi publicada em 2005 e contém aspectos históricos, instrumentação e aplicações nas mais diversas áreas. 7 A espectroscopia NIR e a Quimiometria convivem em simbiose.…”

Determination of lignin and extractive content of Turkish Pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) trees using near infrared spectroscopy and multivariate calibration

“…Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has become a popular method for simultaneous chemical analysis and is being studied extensively in a number of different fields such as process monitoring, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical industry because of its potential for on-line, nondestructive and noninvasive instrumentation (McClure 1994;Dethomas et al 1994;Arnold et al 2000;Tran et al 2004). Traditionally, NIR spectroscopy has found its widest application area in agriculture and food industry (Delwiche 1998;Ferré and Rius 1996;Ferrioa et al 2005;Hareland 1994;Kalivas 1997;McCaig 2002;Miralbés 2004;Punchwein and Eibelhuber 1989;Sorvaniemi et al 1993).…”

Near Infrared Spectroscopic Determination of Diesel Fuel Parameters Using Genetic Multivariate Calibration

“…Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy (McClure, 1994) has become a popular method for simultaneous chemical analysis and is being studied extensively in a number of different fields, such as process monitoring (DeThomas et al, 1994), biotechnology (Arnold et al, 2000), and pharmaceutical and food industry (Wählby and Skjöldebrand, 2001;Tran et al, 2004) because of the potential for on-line, nondestructive and noninvasive instrumentation. The NIR portion of the electromagnetic spectrum covers the range from 780 nm to 2,500 nm, and most of the absorption bands observed in this region are due to overtones and combinations of the fundamental mid-IR molecular vibrational bands.…”
