An axial transmissive Raman spectrograph is described. The instrument employs volume-phase holograms as the laser line rejection filter and transmission grating. The on-axis configuration and the use of a high-spatial-frequency transmission grating allows nearly diffraction-limited imaging and pixel-limited resolution at f/1.8. The performance of the instrument is demonstrated for fiber-optic probe and microprobe Raman spectroscopy.

We report on the development of a simple, rugged fiber-optic probe for process Raman measurements, in which laser line rejection is based on an absorptive longpass filter made from a direct bandgap CdTe semiconductor. The probe can be used with a fixed wavelength laser at 830 nm, and Raman spectra can be recorded down to 200 cm−1 from the laser line. The filter thickness can be adjusted for final turning of the filter edge, as the edge slope is almost independent of thickness in the range 0.1 to 1 mm. Other properties of the probe, such as its signal-to-noise ratio and signal-to-background ratio, are shown to compare well with those of a state-of-the-art probe based on holographic notch filter techniques.

This study investigated the use of Raman spectroscopy (RS) and chemometrics for the determination of eight mineral elements (i.e., Ca, Mg, K, Na, Cu, Mn, Fe, and Zn) in aqueous infant formula (INF). The samples were prepared using infant formula powder reconstituted to concentrations of 3%–13% w/w (powder: water) (n = 83). Raman spectral data acquisition was carried out using a non-contact fiber optic probe on the surface of aqueous samples in 50–3398 cm−1. ICP-AES was used as a reference method for the determination of the mineral contents in aqueous INF samples. Results showed that the best performing partial least squares regression (PLSR) models developed for the prediction of minerals using all samples for calibration achieved R2CV values of 0.51–0.95 with RMSECVs of 0.13–2.96 ppm. The PLSR models developed and validated using separate calibration (n = 42) and validation (n = 41) samples achieved R2CVs of 0.93, 0.94, 0.91, 0.90, 0.97, and 0.94, R2Ps of 0.75, 0.77, 0.31, 0.60, 0.84, and 0.80 with RMSEPs of 3.17, 0.29, 3.45, 1.51, 0.30, and 0.25 ppm for the prediction of Ca, Mg, K, Na, Fe, and Zn respectively. This study demonstrated that RS equipped with a non-contact fiber optic probe and combined with chemometrics has the potential for timely quantification of the mineral content of aqueous INF during manufacturing.

Since the fat content of pork is a deciding factor in meat quality grading, the use of a noninvasive subcutaneous probe for real-time in situ monitoring of the fat components is of importance to vendors and other interested parties.
