    Abstract: An optical analysis system (1), which is arranged to determine amplitude of a principal component of an optical signal, includes a first detector (5) for detecting the optical signal weighted by a first spectral weighting function, and a second detector (6) for detecting the optical signal weighted by a second spectral weighting function. For an improved signal-to-noise ratio, the optical analysis system (1) further includes a dispersive element (2) for spectrally dispersing the optical signal, and a distribution element (4) for receiving the spectrally dispersed optical signal and for distributing a first part of the optical signal weighted by the first spectral weighting function to the first detector (5) and a second part of the optical signal weighted by the second spectral weighting function to the second detector (6). The optical analysis system (1) is suited for use in numerous applications including a spectroscopic analysis system (30) and a blood analysis system (40).

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for non-destructively estimating a tissue property, such as hydration, of a living subject utilizes in vivo spectral measurements made by irradiating skin tissue with near infrared (NIR) light. The apparatus includes a spectroscopic instrument in conjunction with a subject interface. The resulting spectra are passed to an analyzer for further processing, which includes detecting and eliminating invalid spectral measurements, and preprocessing to increase the signal-to-noise ratio. Finally, an estimation model developed from an exemplary set of measurements is applied to predict the tissue hydration for the sample. The method of tissue hydration measurement provides additional information about primary sources of systematic tissue variability, namely, the water content of the epidermal layer of skin and the penetration depth of the incident light. Tissue hydration measurement is therefore suitable for further spectral analysis and quantification of biological and chemical compounds, such as analytes.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for automating the qualification process for chromatographic systems. Automation technology and regression analysis are used for qualifying a chromatography system. The trained operator prepares the chromatography system to ensure that the samples, solvents, and the separation column are ready for analysis. The qualification of the detector, the solvent delivery system, the sample manager, the gradient proportioning system, the column heater, and the delay volume of the chromatography system are completed without the necessity of operator intervention. Regression analysis is performed to compute performance statistics that demonstrate the accuracy, linearity, and precision of the chromatographic system and quantify its suitability for chromatographic analysis.
