This paper demonstrates a novel approach that uses wavelet tessellation in rapid analysis of raw geochemical data produced by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) to produce pseudologs that are representative of stratigraphy. Single-line LIBS spectral data for seven major rock-forming elements (Al, Ca, Fe, Mg, Si, Na and K) were collected from a synthetic 22-sample rock-block comprising two distinct lithological groups based on mineralogy, chemistry and texture: plutonic rocks and marble. Seven sublithologies are identified within the rock-block from traditional laboratory whole-rock geochemical analysis: marble, Mg-marble, granite, quartz monzonite, foidolite, granodiorite and gabbroic diorite. Two-domain clustering (k = 2) on raw spectral LIBS data combined with wavelet tessellation was applied to generate a simplified lithological stratigraphy of marble and plutonic rocks and generate a pseudolog identical to the rock-block stratigraphy. A pseudolog generated from seven-domain clustering (k = 7) and wavelet tessellation successfully discriminated most sublithologies within the rock-block slabs, especially marble slabs. Small-scale units were identified within the more mineralogically and geochemically complex plutonic slabs. The spatial resolution of the LIBS analysis, with a measurement spacing of ~0.35 mm, allowed for assessment of individual mineral compositions and rock textures, and small-scale units within the plutonic rocks can be correlated to specific coarse-grained minerals or mineralogical associations. The application of the wavelet tessellation method to raw LIBS geochemical data offers the possibility of rapid and objective lithogeochemical analysis and interpretations which can predate further analysis (quantitative) and supplement geological logging.

Description of the subject. This research presents a novel approach for species discrimination of terrestrial processed animal proteins (PAP) using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) as an alternative technique for determining feed safety. Objectives. To explore the correlation between LIBS results and elemental composition. To assess the potential of LIBS spectroscopic methods for species discrimination of terrestrial PAP. Method. A total of 42 reliable terrestrial PAP samples of ovine, bovine, porcine, and poultry origin were analyzed and LIBS spectra were innovatively collected from the separated bone fraction. Partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) models were performed on the dataset. Results. Significant differences were found in the element compositions (carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, zinc, strontium and barium, p < 0.05) of PAP from different sources, which indicated a high potential for species discrimination. High-marked LIBS spectral characteristics (21 variables) related to six elements (calcium, sodium, magnesium, zinc, strontium and barium) for different species of terrestrial PAP samples were found out. PAP from the four tested species could be well classified with high sensitivity and specificity (> 0.90), while the ruminant and non-ruminant PAP could be thoroughly discriminated. For the discriminant analysis of ruminant-derived components in terrestrial PAPs, the detection of 10%-40% adulteration can be achieved and the correct rate is about 95%. Conclusions. This study demonstrates that LIBS can mostly exhibit the elemental composition of different terrestrial PAP, and can be a promising method for discriminating the different animal species or animal groups (ruminant/non-ruminant) involved in terrestrial PAPs.

Laser Induced Breakdown

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a powerful technique for quantitative diagnostics of gases. The spatial resolution of LIBS, however, is limited by the volume of plasma. Here femtosecond-nanosecond dual-pulsed LIBS was demonstrated. Using this method, the breakdown threshold was reduced by 80%, and decay of continuous radiation was shortened. In addition, the volume of the plasma was shrunk by 85% and hence, the spatial resolution of LIBS was significantly improved.
