The feasibility of using the fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic technique with a stacked sparse auto-encoder (SSAE) to identify orchid varieties was studied. Spectral data of 13 orchids varieties covering the spectral range of 4000–550 cm−1 were acquired to establish discriminant models and to select optimal spectral variables. K nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and SSAE models were built using full spectra. The SSAE model performed better than the KNN and SVM models and obtained a classification accuracy 99.4% in the calibration set and 97.9% in the prediction set. Then, three algorithms, principal component analysis loading (PCA-loading), competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), and stacked sparse auto-encoder guided backward (SSAE-GB), were used to select 39, 300, and 38 optimal wavenumbers, respectively. The KNN and SVM models were built based on optimal wavenumbers. Most of the optimal wavenumbers-based models performed slightly better than the all wavenumbers-based models. The performance of the SSAE-GB was better than the other two from the perspective of the accuracy of the discriminant models and the number of optimal wavenumbers. The results of this study showed that the FTIR spectroscopic technique combined with the SSAE algorithm could be adopted in the identification of the orchid varieties.

Different varieties of raisins have different nutritional properties and vary in commercial value. An identification method of raisin varieties using hyperspectral imaging was explored. Hyperspectral images of two different varieties of raisins (Wuhebai and Xiangfei) at spectral range of 874–1734 nm were acquired, and each variety contained three grades. Pixel-wise spectra were extracted and preprocessed by wavelet transform and standard normal variate, and object-wise spectra (sample average spectra) were calculated. Principal component analysis (PCA) and independent component analysis (ICA) of object-wise spectra and pixel-wise spectra were conducted to select effective wavelengths. Pixel-wise PCA scores images indicated differences between two varieties and among different grades. SVM (Support Vector Machine), k-NN (k-nearest Neighbors Algorithm), and RBFNN (Radial Basis Function Neural Network) models were built to discriminate two varieties of raisins. Results indicated that both SVM and RBFNN models based on object-wise spectra using optimal wavelengths selected by PCA could be used for raisin variety identification. The visualization maps verified the effectiveness of using hyperspectral imaging to identify raisin varieties.

Background: The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the usefulness of the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) method for the evaluation of the modification process of biomaterials with the participation of active substances. Methods: Modified catheter samples were prepared by activating the matrix with an acid, iodine, or bromine, and then immobilizing the active molecules. To carry out the modification process, the Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) method was used. Results: FTIR analysis indicated the presence of the immobilized substances in the catheter matrix and site-specific reactions. Conclusion: We surmise that the infrared spectroscopic technique is an ideal tool for the assessment of the drug immobilization and the changes occurring in the course of the modification process.

The first line drug given for monotherapy for diabetes mellitus type 2 is metformin hydrochloride, which is a biguanide antihyperglycemic drug. The aim of this research was to develop, validate, and apply the Fourier Transform Infrared spectrophotometry method to identify and determine metformin hydrochloride in marketed tablet dosage form. This research included preparation of standard, analysis of samples, and validation of method. The specific wavenumber obtained for qualitative analysis was 1645.68 cm–1 and 1574.8 cm–1. The specific area obtained for quantitative analysis with a single baseline ranged from 1701.53 cm–1 to 1535.66 cm–1. All metformin hydrochloride marketed tablet dosage forms were analyzed and met all of the qualitative and quantitative requirements. The methods met the requirements of method validation for accuracy with a percentage of recovery of 100.22 %, precision with relative standard deviation of 0.48 %, linearity with a correlation coefficient of 0.9992, limit of detection of 11.17 mg per mL, limit of quantitation of 33.84 mg per mL, and good specificity results. In this study, the Fourier Transform Infrared spectrophotometry method was successfully developed and validated for application in identification and determination of metformin hydrochloride in marketed tablet dosage form.

<p>The GLORIA-B (Gimballed Limb Observer for Radiance Imaging of the Atmosphere - Balloon) instrument is an adaptation of the very successful GLORIA-AB imaging Fourier transform spectrometer (iFTS) flown on the research aircrafts HALO and M55 Geophysica. The high spectral resolution in the LWIR (Long Wave Infrared) allows for the retrieval of temperature and of a broad range of atmospheric trace gases, with the goal to retrieve O<sub>3</sub>, H<sub>2</sub>O, HNO<sub>3</sub>, C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>, C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub>, HCOOH, CCl<sub>4</sub>, PAN, ClONO<sub>2</sub>, CFC-11, CFC-12, SF<sub>6</sub>, OCS, NH<sub>3</sub>, HCN, BrONO<sub>2</sub>, HO<sub>2</sub>NO<sub>2</sub>, N<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> and NO<sub>2</sub>. The radiometric sensitivity of the Balloon instrument is further increased in comparison with the GLORIA-AB instrument by having two detector channels on the same focal plane array, while keeping the same concept of a cooled optical system. This system improvement was achieved with minimal adaptation of the existing optical system.</p><p>The high spatial and temporal resolution of the instrument is ensured by the imaging capability of the Fourier transform spectrometer while stabilizing the line-of-sight in elevation with the instrument and in azimuth with the balloon gondola. In a single measurement lasting 13 seconds, the atmosphere can be sounded from mid-troposphere up to flight altitude, typically 30 km, with a vertical resolution always better than 1 km for most retrieved species; a spatial resolution up to 0.3 km can be achieved in favourable conditions. Temperature retrieval precision between 0.1 and 0.2 K is expected. A spectral sampling up to 0.0625 cm<sup>-1</sup> can be achieved.</p><p>The first flight of GLORIA-B shall take place during the late-summer polar jet turn-around at Kiruna/ESRANGE. This flight is organised in the frame of the HEMERA project and was scheduled for summer 2020, but was ultimately postponed to summer 2021. Beyond qualification of the first balloon-borne iFTS, the scientific goals of the flight are, among others, the quantification of the stratospheric bromine budget and its diurnal evolution by measuring vertical profiles of BrONO<sub>2 </sub>in combination with BrO observations by the DOAS instrument of University Heidelberg on the same platform.</p>

Abstract Drought isa major constraint in many rainfed areas and affects rice yield. We aimed to characterize the physiological changes in rice in response to drought using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Eighty rice landrace seedlings were subjected to drought in the greenhouse using a PEG 6000. Physiological parameters, including total chlorophyll content, relative water content, electrolyte leakage, and biochemical changes were evaluated. Based on the FTIR results, the landraces were divided into three main groups: tolerant, moderately tolerant, and susceptible. Principal component analysis revealed spectral differences between the control and drought stress treatment groups. Lipid, pectin, and lignin content increased after drought stress. The biochemical components of plants at different drought tolerance levels were also compared. The lipid (CH2 and CH3), lignin (C=C), pectin (C=O), and protein (C=O, N–H) contents were the highest in the drought-tolerant cultivars, followed by the moderately tolerant and susceptible cultivars, respectively. Cultivar 17 and 49 were the most tolerant, and the functional groups were identified and characterized using FTIR. Overall, these results will be useful in selecting parental cultivars for rice breeding programs.
