Abstract: A method of calibrating an optical analysis system uses multivariate optical signal analysis. The method includes determining a parameter of a reference sample, and comparing the actually determined parameter with a reference parameter that represents a precise and real property of the reference sample. Based on the comparison, a calibration value is determined that is applicable to perform a calibration of the optical analysis system with respect to at least one compound or analyte of the reference sample. Parameters and reference parameters of a reference sample may refer to a concentration of an analyte dissolved in the sample, or to spectroscopic background signals that have to be taken into account when performing a spectral analysis based on optical signals obtained from the reference sample. Analyte-specific reference data is stored in a calibration unit of the optical analysis system and allows a high degree of automation of the calibration process.

Abstract: A visible/near-infrared spectrum analyzing method for identifying components of a sample and determining characteristics of the components using visible light and/or near-infrared light having a wavelength of 400 to 2500 nm. The quantitative determination of the components, which have been conventionally hard to identify, of a grape of a small fruit cultivar for wine making can be made in a nondestructive way. A grape of a small fruit cultivar for wine making (a sample under examination) is irradiated with visible light and/or near-infrared light having a wavelength of 600 to 1100 nm and is subjected to spectrum determination of the sample and an absorption spectrum is determined from the obtained spectrum. By employing a multivariate statistical analysis (hereinafter referred to multivariate analysis) by the PLS or MLR method, a model enabling quantitative determination of the components of the sample under examination is created.

Abstract: A spectroscopic method and spectroscopy system therefrom for analyzing samples. A sample includes a first chemical component that has a characteristic first absorption peak is provided. The sample is irradiated in a measurement waveband proximate to the first absorption peak, and at a first and a second reference waveband where the first chemical component lacks characteristic absorption features. Reflected or transmitted detection data is obtained including a measured power proximate to the first absorption peak and first and second reference powers at the reference wavebands. A plurality of different waveband ratios are evaluated using pairs of detection data to generate a plurality of measured waveband ratio values. A parameter of the first chemical component is then determined by evaluating a multidimensional polynomial calibration equation that relates the parameter of the first chemical component to the plurality of different waveband ratios by substituting the measured waveband ratio values into the calibration relation.

Abstract: The nutritional quality of milk lipids is determined by a method for predicting percentages of minor fatty acids in milk. A database is created by correlating known fatty acid profiles of reference milk samples obtained by gas phase chromatography to mid-infrared spectra to obtain calibrations, wherein the calibrations vary in accuracy from one fatty acid to another. The determination of a milk fatty acid profile to be analyzed through infrared treatment is limited to some fatty acids with a satisfactory calibration. Equations to predict the percentages of minor fatty acids are developed using correlations of fatty acids with satisfactory calibrations.

Abstract: A method for monitoring of siloxane compounds in a biogas includes the step of generating a first absorption spectrum based on a ratio of a first spectral measurement and a second spectral measurement. The first spectral measurement is from a non-absorptive gas having substantially no infrared absorptions in a specified wavelength range of interest and the second spectral measurement is from a sample gas comprising the biogas. The method also includes the step of calculating a concentration of at least one siloxane compound in the biogas using a second absorption spectrum based on, at least, a first individual absorption spectrum for a known concentration of the at least one siloxane compound.
