Quantitative reflectance spectroscopy offers an alternative to traditional analytical methods for the determination of the chemical composition of a sample. The objective of this study was to develop a set of spectroscopic calibrations to determine the chemical composition (nutrients, carbon, and fiber constituents, determined using standard wet lab methods) of dried conifer foliage samples (N = 72), and to compare the predictive ability of calibrations based on three different spectral regions: visible and shortwave near infrared (VIS–sNIR, 400- to 1100-nm wavelengths), near infrared (NIR, 1100- to 2500-nm wavelengths), and mid infrared (MIR, 2500- to 25 000-nm wavelengths). To date, most quantitative reflectance spectroscopy has been based on the VIS–sNIR–NIR, and the ability of MIR calibrations to predict the composition of tree foliage has not been tested. VIS–sNIR calibrations were clearly inferior to those based on longer wavelengths. For 8 of 11 analytes, the MIR calibrations had the lowest standard error of cross-validation, but in most cases the difference in accuracy between NIR and MIR calibrations was small, and against an independent validation set, there was no clear evidence that either spectral region was superior. Although quantitative MIR spectroscopy is at a more primitive state of development than NIR spectroscopy, these results demonstrate that the mid infrared has considerable promise for quantitative analytical work.

Fourier transform near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy play important roles in all fingerprint techniques because of their unique characteristics such as reliability, versatility, precision, and ease of measurement. In this paper, a supervised pattern recognition method based on the PLSDA algorithm by NIR and the NIR-MIR fusion spectra has been established to identify geoherbalism of Angelica dahurica from different regions and authenticity of Corydalis yanhusuo W. T. Wang. Comparing principle component analysis (PCA) cannot successfully identify geographical origins of Angelica dahurica. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) also hardly distinguishes those origins. Furthermore, the PLSDA model based on the data fusion of NIR and IR was more accurate and efficient. But, the identification of authenticity of Corydalis yanhusuo W. T. Wang was still inaccurate in the PLSDA model. Consequently, data fusion of NIR-MIR original spectra combined with moving window partial least-squares discriminant analysis was firstly used and showed perfect properties on authenticity and adulteration discrimination of Corydalis yanhusuo W. T. Wang. It indicated that data fusion of NIR-MIR spectra combined with MWPLSDA could be considered as the promising tool for rapid discrimination of the geoherbalism and authenticity of more Chinese herbs in the future.

Paleoecological Reconstructions

Spectroscopic methods combined with statistics have recently gathered substantial interest in pedological studies. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been utilized, for example, for reconstructions of the history and transformations of Chernozems, although no similar research was conducted based on mid-infrared (MIR). In this paper, the relevance of MIR spectroscopy was tested in studies on the origin/affinity of organic matter from chernozemic soils. Samples collected from three vegetation classes (grasslands, forests and arable lands) were investigated using MIR spectroscopy in order to create a statistical model, which was applied on buried profiles of unknown origin. The results showed a clear disjunction of vegetation classes. Samples of buried soil were placed in the space between all classes, indicating the relation to variable vegetation. Therefore, arable lands should not be omitted in paleoecological reconstructions, because we cannot exclude the cultivation of fertile soils before their burial. It was concluded that MIR methods may have similar applicability to NIR spectroscopy. Additionally, MIR spectra may also be discriminated according to the recognized soil type, which allows for direct reconstructions of the transformation trends in buried profiles.

Meat Samples

Visible and near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (Vis-NIR) has been widely used by the industry research-base for large-scale meat quality evaluation to predict the chemical composition of meat quickly and accurately. Meat tenderness is measured by means of slow and destructive methods (e.g. Warner-Bratzler shear force). Similarly, sensory analysis, using trained panellists, requires large meat samples and is a complex, expensive and time-consuming technique. Nevertheless, these characteristics are important criteria that affect consumers’ evaluation of beef quality. Vis-NIR technique provides information about the molecular bonds (chemical constituents) and tissue ultra-structure in a scanned sample and thus can indirectly predict physical or sensory parameters of meat samples. Applications of Vis-NIR spectroscopy in an abattoir for prediction of physical and sensory characteristics have been less developed than in other fields. Therefore, the aim of this study was to test the on-line Vis-NIR spectroscopy for the prediction of beef quality characteristics such as colour, instrumental texture, water holding capacity (WHC) and sensory traits, by direct application of a fibre-optic probe to the M. longissimus thoracis with no prior sample treatment.

Abstract Background: Cabernet Sauvignon wine enjoys large market in China, and its adulteration has become a well-known problem and challenge. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the capabilities of multiple techniques, including headspace–solid-phase microextraction–GC-MS (HS-SPME-GC-MS), electronic tongue (E-tongue) spectroscopy, mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy, and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, to differentiate this popular imported wine in China. Methods: MIR spectroscopy, NIR spectroscopy, E-tongue spectroscopy, and HS-SPME-GC-MS were used. Multivariate analysis techniques were applied to further explore the instrumental determination data for the wine discrimination. Results: Joint use of MIR and NIR with Grey relational analysis (GRA), E-tongue with principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis, and HS-SPME-GC-MS with PCA allowed unanimous differentiation of the wines. Conclusions: The approach described herein offers both ecologically friendly and multiperspective mutual corroboration techniques for Cabernet Sauvignon wine discrimination. The integrative methodology could be used as a reference for wine authentication. Highlights: GRA was first applied to discriminate the wine samples. Mutual corroboration was verified by multivariate statistics combined with MIR, NIR, E-tongue, and SPME-GC/MS. Integrated techniques pointed to a unanimous authentication of the wine samples.
