In this study, the performance of a portable NIR system and a FT NIR spectrometer were compared to determine water content of hairless mouse skin. The stratum corneum parts wer e separated from the epidermal tissues by trypsin solution. NIR diffuse reflectance spectra of hairless mouse skin were acquired using a fiber optic probe. In the near infrared, water molecules show two clear absorption bands at 1450 nm from first overtone of O-H stretching and 1940 nm from the combination involving O-H stretching and O-H deformation. It was found that the variations of O-H absorption band according to water content. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) was applied to develop a calibration model. The PLS model showed a good correlation between NIR predicted value and the absolute water content of separated hairless mouse skin, in vitro. For both the portable and the FT NIR spectrometer, These studies showed the possibility of a rapid and nondestructive skin moisture measurement using NIR spectroscopy. The portable NIR spectrometer with a photodiode arrays-microsensor could be more rapidly applied for the determination of water content with comparable accuracy with the performance of a FT spectrometer .

The water content of skin was determined using a FT near infrared (NIR) spectrometer. NIR diffuse reflectance spectra were collected from hairless mouse, in vitro, and from human inner arm, in vivo. It was found that the variation of NIR absorbance band 1450 nm from OH vibration of water and 1940 nm from the combination involving OH stretching and OH deformation, depending on the absolute water content of separated hairless mouse skin, in vitro, using the FT NIR spectrometer. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) was applied to develop a calibration model. The PLS model showed good correlation. For practical use of the evaluation of human skin moisture, the PLS model for human skin moisture was developed in vivo on the basis of the relative water content of stratum corneum from the conventional capacitance method. The PLS model predicted human skin moisture with a standard errors of prediction (SEP) of 3.98 at 1130-1830 nm range. These studies showed the possibility of a rapid and nondestructive skin moisture measurement using FT NIR spectrometer.

A method is described for measuring clinically relevant levels of glucose in a pH 7.4 phosphate buffer by nearinfrared (NIR) absorption spectroscopy. Three types of NIR spectrometer, dispersive type, photo-diode array (PDA) type, and fourier transform (FT) type spectrometer were used and the performance was compared. Spectra were collected with a cuvette cell or quartz liquid fiber of 1 mm or 2 mm optical pathlength as transmittance method. Glucose absorption band appeared at second overtone, first overtone, and combination region for all systems. By use of the multivariate technigue of partial least squares (PLS) regression, glucose concentrations can be determined with a 16, 44, and 9.1 mg/d l standard error of prediction for dispersive type, photo-diode array type, and fourier transform type system, respectively. Sensitivity of spectrometer was evaluated by absorbance for the difference of 10 mg/d l glucose. Three absorption bands, second overtone, first overtone, and combination region were suited to three types systems, dispersive type, photo-diode array type, and fourier transform type systems, respectively. This investigation showed that three types NIR spectrometer were proper method for identification and quantitative analysis of glucose and possible for noninvasive blood glucose monitoring.

The feasibility of NIR spectroscopy as a quick and nondestructive method for quality control of uniformity of coating thickness of pharmaceutical tablets was investigated. Near infrared spectra of a set of pharmaceutical tablets with varying coating thickness were measured with a diffuse reflectance fiber optic probe connected to a Broker IFS 28/N FT-NIR spectrometer. The challenging issues encountered in this study included: 1. The similarity of the formulation of the core and coating materials, 2. The lack of sufficient calibration samples and 3. The non-linear relationship between the NIR spectral intensity and coating: thickness. A peak at 7184 $cm^{-1}$ was identified that differed for the coating material and the core material when M spectra were collected at 2 $cm^{-1}$ resolution (0.4 nm at 7184 $cm^{-1}$). The study showed that the coating thickness can be analyzed by polynomial fitting of the peak area of the selected peak, while least squares calibration of the same data failed due to the lack of availability of sufficient calibration samples. Samples of coal powder and solid pieces of coal were analyzed by FT-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy with the goal of predicting their ash content, percentage of volatile components, and energy content. The measurements were performed on a Broker Vector 22N spectrometer with a fiber optic probe. A partial least squares model was constructed for each of the parameters of interest for solid and powdered sample forms separately. Calibration models varied in size from 4 to 10 PLS ranks. Correlation coefficients for these models ranged from 86.6 to 95.0%, with root-mean-square errors of cross validation comparable to the corresponding reference measurement methods. The use of FT-NIR diffuse reflectance measurement techniques was found to be a significant improvement over existing measurement methodologies in terms of speed and ease of use, while maintaining the desired accuracy for all parameters and sample forms.(Figure Omitted).

Objectives : The determination of oxalate in urine is required for the diagnosis and treatment of primary hyperoxaluria, idiopathic stone disease and various intestinal diseases. We examined the possibility of using Fourier transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy analysis to quantitate urinary oxalate. The practical advantages of this method include ease of the sample preparation and operation technique, the absence of sample pre-treatments, rapid determination and noninvasiveness. Methods : The range of oxalate concentration in standard urine solutions was $0-221mg/{\ell}$. These 80 different samples were scanned in the region of 780-1,300 nm with a 0.5 nm data interval by a Spectrum One NTS FT-NIR spectrometer. PCR, PLSR and MLR regression models were used to calculate and evaluate the calibration equation. Results : The PCR and PLSR calibration models were obtained from the spectral data and they are exactly same. The standard error of estimation (SEE) and the % variance were $10.34mg/{\ell}$ and 97.86%, respectively. After full cross validation of this model, the standard error of estimation was $5,287mg/{\ell}$, which was much smaller than that of the pre-validation. Furthermore, the MCC (multiple correlation coefficient) was 0.998, which was compatible with the 0.923 or 0.999 obtained from the previous enzymatic methods. Conclusions : These results showed that FT-NIR spectroscopy can be used for rapid determination of the concentration of oxalate in human urine samples.

본 연구에서는 1900년대 이후 근대 한지로 작성된 기록물의 상태를 가능한 빠르게 확인할 수 있는 도구를 연구하고자 비파괴적인 방법으로 분석을 실시하였다. 종이 기록물의 경우 그 자체가 원본임으로 파괴적인 방법으로 분석할 수 없는 한계를 극복하고자 원본을 파괴하지 않고 상태를 확인할 수 있는 방법을 개발하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 본 연구 목적에 적합한 비파괴 분석을 위해 근적외선 분석 장비 중에서 정밀도와 정확도가 좋은 푸리에 변환(Fourier transform) 분석기(spectrometer)를 사용하였다. 또한 측정 대역은 근적외선(NIR) 전체 영역 모두를 측정할 수 있도록 $12,500{\sim}4,000cm^{-1}$ 범위에서 측정하였으며, 분석 대상 한지 기록물을 측정하기 위하여 적분구(integrating sphere)에 접촉하도록 구성 하였다. 한지 기록물의 보존상태를 평가하기 위한 인자로는 화학적 변화 정도를 가장 잘 알 수 있는 산성도(pH)를 사용하였다. 그리고 이들 인자와 근적외선 스펙트럼과 상관관계를 확인하였고, 이때 최적 상관계수를 찾기 위하여 측정한 스펙트럼을 전처리 하였다. 전처리 방법으로는 다산란보정(MSC)과 Savitzky-Golay의 1차 미분을 이용하였다. 상관계수는 부분최소자승법(PLS, Partial least square)으로 확인하였다. 산성도(pH)의 경우에 전처리를 하지 않았을 때의 상관계수($R^2$)는 0.92, 표준예측오차(SEP)는 0.24이었고, 전처리를 하였을 때의 상관계수($R^2$)는 0.98, 표준예측오차(SEP)는 0.19 이었다. 따라서 전처리하였을 때 상관계수와 표준오차가 향상되었음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 1차 미분을 하였을 때의 상관계수($R^2$)는 0.98, 표준예측오차(SEP)는 0.09로써 가장 좋은 표준 예측오차를 얻었다. 따라서 전처리하기 전의 상관계수와 표준오차가 오히려 좋다는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 한지 기록물을 적분구와 근적외선 분석기를 이용하여 비파괴적인 방법으로 보다 빠르게 상태를 평가할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Nondestructive evaluation of seed viability is one of the highly demanding technologies for seed production industry. Conventional seed sorting technologies, such as tetrazolium and standard germination test are destructive, time consuming, and labor intensive methods. Near infrared spectroscopy technique has shown good potential for nondestructive quality measurements for food and agricultural products. In this study, FT-NIR spectroscopy was used to classify normal and artificially aged lettuce seeds. The spectra with the range of 1100~2500 nm were scanned for lettuce seeds and analyzed using the principal component analysis(PCA) method. To classify viable seeds from nonviable seeds, a calibration modeling set was developed with a partial least square(PLS) method. The calibration model developed from PLS resulted in 98% classification accuracy with the Savitzky-Golay $1^{st}$ derivative preprocessing method. The prediction accuracy for the test data set was 93% with the MSC(Multiplicative Scatter Correction) preprocessing method. The results show that FT-NIR has good potential for discriminating non-viable lettuce seeds from viable ones.

국내에서는 건물의 화재 방지를 위하여 인증된 내화뿜칠재를 사용하도록 규정되어 있다. 하지만 일부 현장에서는 성능이 없는 흡음뿜칠재을 사용함으로 해서 내화구조 부실시공의 원인이 되고 있다. 따라서 성능이 인정된 내화 뿜칠재와 일반 흡음뿜칠재를 현장에서 분석하여 적정 시공 여부를 확인하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 성능이 인정된 내화 뿜칠재 9종과 정상 내화 뿜칠재 및 내화성능이 없는 일반 흡음뿜칠재 3종을 비교 측정하였다. 측정하기 전에 분석시료를 대상으로 mill을 사용하여 powder로 전처리를 하였으며 현장에 접근성이 용이한 NIR을 사용하였다. 측정은 NIR중에서 FTNIR을 사용하였으며, 측정 모듈은 적분구(integrating sphere)를 사용하여 측정하였다. 이 측정된 흡수 스펙트럼은 통계 처리 방법 중에서 주성분 분석법인 PCA 기법으로 분석함으로 해서 정상과 비정상 내화뿜칠재를 판별이 가능 함을 확인하였다.

In 1989, at the 2nd ICNIRS Meeting in Tsukuba, I projected certain directions for NIR technology would take in the future. Among those projections were: (1) An inrush of companies producing FT-NIR instruments. (2) Hybrid NIR Systems (3) Hand-held NIR Technology. All three thrusts have resulted in numerous commercial offerings over the last 12 years Hand-held technology for all fields is growing at an astonishing rate. To date, NIR work at North Carolina State University has produced four (4) hand-held NIR units for: (1) Nicotine and Moisture in tobacco, (2) Vanillin and Moisture in Vanilla Beans, (3) Protein, Moisture and Nitrogen in plant tissue, (4) Chlorophyll and Moisture in Growing Plants: A NIR Spectrometer for Developing Countries. This paper will discuss these developments, including design and performance data.
