This paper presented a novel method named wavelet packet transform-based partial least squares method (WPTPLS) for simultaneous spectrophotometric determination ofα-naphthylamine, p-nitroaniline, and benzidine. Wavelet packet representations of signals provided a local time-frequency description and separation ability between information and noise. The quality of the noise removal can be improved by using best-basis algorithm and thresholding operation. Partial least squares (PLS) method uses both the response and concentration information to enhance its ability of prediction. In this case, by optimization, wavelet function and decomposition level for WPTPLS method were selected as Db16 and 3, respectively. The relative standard errors of prediction (RSEP) for all components with WPTPLS and PLS were 2.23% and 2.71%, respectively. Experimental results showed WPTPLS method to be successful and better than PLS.

Simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of Mn, Zn and Co was studied by two methods, classical partial least-squares (PLS) and kernel partial least-squares (KPLS), with 2-(5-bromo-2- pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminephenol (5-Br-PADAP) and cetyl pyridinium bromide (CPB). Two programs, SPGRPLS and SPGRKPLS, were designed to perform the calculations. Eight error functions were calculated for deducing the number of factors. Data reductions were performed using principle component analysis. The KPLS method was applied for the rapid determination from a data matrix with many wavelengths and fewer numbers of samples. The relative standard errors of prediction (RSEP) for all components with KPLS and PLS methods were the same (0.0247). Experimental results showed both methods to be successful even where there was severe overlap of spectra.
