Methane Potential

Biochemical methane potential (BMP) of anaerobic co-digestion (co-AD) feedstocks is an essential basis for optimizing ratios of materials. Given the time-consuming shortage of conventional BMP tests, a rapid estimated method was proposed for BMP of co-AD—with straw and feces as feedstocks—based on near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) combined with chemometrics. Partial least squares with several variable selection algorithms were used for establishing calibration models. Variable selection methods were constructed by the genetic simulated annealing algorithm (GSA) combined with interval partial least squares (iPLS), synergy iPLS, backward iPLS, and competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), respectively. By comparing the modeling performances of characteristic wavelengths selected by different algorithms, it was found that the model constructed using 57 characteristic wavelengths selected by CARS-GSA had the best prediction accuracy. For the validation set, the determination coefficient, root mean square error and relative root mean square error of the CARS-GSA model were 0.984, 6.293 and 2.600, respectively. The result shows that the NIRS regression model—constructed with characteristic wavelengths, selected by CARS-GSA—can meet actual detection requirements. Based on a large number of samples collected, the method proposed in this study can realize the rapid and accurate determination of the BMP for co-AD raw materials in biogas engineering.

Saponin Content

In this study, near infrared spectroscopy has been demonstrated to quickly determine the saponin content in soapnut fruits. Partial least squares analysis combined with pre-processing methods and significance multivariate correlation variable selection was introduced to develop a statistical model calibrated for saponin content in soapnut fruits. The results showed that the first derivative yielded the best partial least squares calibration models with spectra of both the surface of dried fruits and the powder of dry seeded fruits with root mean square error of calibration values of 0.85% and 0.59%, respectively. The surface model presented less accuracy than the powder model. However, when the significance multivariate correlation variable selection method was applied to select the best variables from the spectra, the partial least squares models using spectra of surface and powder samples became similar, with higher R2 values (0.84 and 0.90), lower root mean square error of calibration values of 0.23% and 0.39%. It was suggested that near infrared spectroscopy could be a promising and rapid method for predicting the saponin content in the soapnut fruits without grinding them into powder.

AbstractIn this work, near-infrared spectroscopy coupled the classical PLS and variable selection algorithms; synergy interval-PLS, backward interval-PLS and genetic algorithm-PLS for rapid measurement of the antioxidant activity of Chinese dates. The chemometric analysis of antioxidant activity assays was performed. The built models were investigated using correlation coefficients of calibration and prediction; root mean square error of prediction, root mean square error of cross-validation and residual predictive deviation (RPD). The correlation coefficient for calibration and prediction sets and RPD values ranged from 0.8503 to 0.9897, 0.8463 to 0.9783 and 1.86 to 4.88, respectively. In addition, variable selection algorithms based on efficient information extracted from acquired spectra were superior to classical PLS. The overall results revealed that near-infrared spectroscopy combined with chemometric algorithms could be used for rapid quantification of antioxidant content in Chinese dates samples.

Validation Set

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was used as a rapid and nondestructive method to determine the content of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in powdered oil samples. A total of 82 samples were scanned in the diffuse reflectance mode by Nicolet 5700 FTIR spectrometer and the reference values for DHA was measured by gas chromatography. Calibration equations were developed using partial least-squares regression (PLS) with internal cross-validation. Samples were split in two sets, one set used as calibration (n = 66) whereas the remaining samples (n=16) were used as validation set. Two mathematical treatments (first and second derivative), none (log(1/R)) and standard normal variate as scatter corrections and Savitzky—Golay smoothing were explored. To decide upon the number of PLS factors included in the PLS model, the model with the lowest root mean square error of cross-validation (RMSECV=0.44) for the validation set is chosen. The correlation coefficient (r) between the predicted and the reference results which used as an evaluation parameter for the models is 0.968. The root mean square error of prediction of the final model is 0.59. The results reported in this article demonstrate that FT-NIR measurements can serve as a rapid method to determine DHA in powdered oil.

Pesticides have long been used in the cabbage industry to control pest infestation. This study investigated the potential application of low-cost and portable visible shortwave near-infrared spectroscopy for the detection of deltamethrin residue in cabbages. A total of sixty organic cabbage samples were used. The sample was divided into four batches, three batches were sprayed with deltamethrin pesticide whereas the remaining batch was not sprayed (control sample). The first three batches of the cabbages were sprayed with the pesticide at three different concentrations, namely low, medium and high with the values of 0.08, 0.11 and 0.14% volume/volume (v/v), respectively. Spectral data of the cabbage samples were collected using visible shortwave near-infrared (VSNIR) spectrometer with wavelengths range between 200 and 1100 nm. Gas chromatography-electron capture detector (GC-ECD) was used to determine the concentration of deltamethrin residues in the cabbages. Partial least square (PLS) regression method was adopted to investigate the relationship between the spectral data and deltamethrin concentration values. The calibration model produced the values of coefficient of determination (R2 ) and the root mean square error of calibration (RMSEC) of 0.98 and 0.02, respectively. For the prediction model, the values of R2 and the root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) were 0.94 and 0.04, respectively. These results demonstrated that the proposed spectroscopic measurement is a promising technique for the detection of pesticide at different concentrations in cabbage samples.

Abstract Background Gossypol found in cottonseeds is toxic to human beings and monogastric animals and is a primary parameter for integrated utilization of cottonseed products. It is usually determined by the techniques relied on complex pretreatment procedures and the samples after determination cannot be used in breeding program, so it is of great importance to predict the gossypol content in cottonseeds rapidly and non-destructively to substitute the traditional analytical method. Results Gossypol content in cottonseeds was investigated by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Partial least squares regression, combined with spectral pretreatment methods including Savitzky-Golay smoothing, standard normal variate, multiplicative scatter correction, and first derivate, were tested for optimizing the calibration models. NIRS technique was efficient in predicting gossypol content in intact cottonseeds, as revealed by the root-mean-square error of cross-validation (RMSECV), root-mean-square error of prediction (RMSEP), coefficient for determination of prediction (Rp2), and residual predictive deviation (RPD) values for all models, being 0.05–0.07, 0.04–0.06, 0.82–0.92, and 2.3–3.4, respectively. The optimized model pretreated by Savitzky-Golay smoothing + standard normal variate + first derivate resulted in good determination of gossypol content in intact cottonseeds. Conclusions Near infrared spectroscopy coupled with different spectral pretreatments and PLS regression has exhibited the feasibility in predicting gossypol content in intact cottonseeds, rapidly and non-destructively. It could be used as an alternative method to substitute for traditional one to determine the gossypol content in intact cottonseeds.

AbstractThe content of the flavonolignan mixture silymarin and its individual components (silichristin, silidianin, silibinin A, silibinin B, isosilibinin A, and isosilibinin B) in whole and milled milk thistle seeds (Silybi mariani fructus) was analyzed with near-infrared spectroscopy. The analytical performance of one benchtop and two handheld near-infrared spectrometers was compared. Reference analysis was performed with HPLC following a Soxhlet extraction (European Pharmacopoeia) and a more resource-efficient ultrasonic extraction. The reliability of near-infrared spectral analysis determined through partial least squares regression models constructed independently for the spectral datasets obtained by the three spectrometers was as follows. The benchtop device NIRFlex N-500 performed the best both for milled and whole seeds with a root mean square error of CV between 0.01 and 0.17%. The handheld spectrometer MicroNIR 2200 as well as the microPHAZIR provided a similar performance (root mean square error of CV between 0.01 and 0.18% and between 0.01 and 0.23%, respectively). We carried out quantum chemical simulation of near-infrared spectra of silichristin, silidianin, silibinin, and isosilibinin for interpretation of the results of spectral analysis. This provided understanding of the absorption regions meaningful for the calibration. Further, it helped to better separate how the chemical and physical properties of the samples affect the analysis. While the study demonstrated that milling of samples slightly improves the performance, it was deemed to be critical only for the analysis carried out with the microPHAZIR. This study evidenced that rapid and nondestructive quantification of silymarin and individual flavonolignans is possible with miniaturized near-infrared spectroscopy in whole milk thistle seeds.

Rice Vinegar

In the process of fermenting rice vinegar, the concentration of acetic acid and ethanol concentration must be measured for monitoring of the total concentration. Near infrared spectroscopy has been used to rapidly monitor the concentration of acetic acid and ethanol concentration daily during 10 cycles of the fermentation process. The model was developed using partial least squares regression. For predicting concentration of acetic acid with near infrared spectroscopy, the coefficient of determination ( R2), root mean square error of calibration, root mean square error of cross validation, ratio of standard error of validation to standard deviation, and bias was 0.96, 2.30 g L−1, 2.44 g L−1, 1.11 g L−1, and 5.56, respectively. For ethanol concentration, the value of R2, root mean square error of calibration, root mean square error of cross validation, bias and ratio of prediction to deviation were predicted to be 0.94, 3.15 g L−1, 2.73 g L−1, −0.40 g L−1, and 4.04, respectively. However, both models provided fair performance when tested with an external set of samples, indicating that the models could be applied for rough screening.

Sorghum Flour

In the sorghum-growing regions of the United States, some bioethanol plants use mixtures of corn and sorghum grains as feedstocks depending on price and availability. For regulatory purposes and for optimizing the ethanol manufacturing process, knowledge of the grain composition of the milled feedstock is important. Thus, a near infrared spectroscopy method was developed to determine the content of sorghum in corn–sorghum flour mixtures. Commercial corn and sorghum grain samples were obtained from a bioethanol plant over an 18-month period and across two crop seasons. An array of corn–sorghum flour mixtures having 0–100% sorghum was prepared and scanned using a near infrared spectrometer in the 950–1650 nm wavelength range. A partial least squares regression model was developed to estimate sorghum content in flour mixtures. A calibration model with R2 of 0.99 and a root mean square error of cross validation of 3.91% predicted the sorghum content of an independent set of flour mixtures with r2 = 0.97, root mean square error of prediction = 5.25% and bias = −0.49%. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was utilized to examine spectral differences in corn and sorghum flours. Differences in absorptions were observed at 2930, 2860, 1710, 1150, 1078, and 988 cm−1 suggesting that C–H antisymmetric and symmetric, C=O and C–O stretch vibrations of corn and sorghum flours differ. The regression coefficients of the near infrared model had major peaks around overtone and combination bands of C–H stretch and bending vibrations at 1165, 1220, and 1350 nm. Therefore, the above results confirmed that sorghum content in corn sorghum flour mixtures can be determined using near infrared spectroscopy.
