In this paper we evaluate methods for standardization of Raman spectra that are required to improve spectral correlation computations between spectra measured on different instruments. Five commercially-available 785 nm Raman spectrometers from different vendors were included in the study. These spectrometers have diverse specifications and performance levels and range in size from laboratory-based instruments to field-deployable portable and handheld platforms. Since each Raman spectrometer has different characteristics, spectra obtained on one instrument cannot readily be compared to a library acquired on a different instrument without performing various types of spectral corrections (standardization). We outline a procedure that combines previously established Raman shift and intensity correction protocols with a resolution matching step to facilitate the comparison of a centralized master library with spectra acquired on different geographically distributed Raman spectrometers. The standardization procedure is effective in reducing the inherent instrument-to-instrument variability so that spectra from different spectrometers can be compared and reliable results obtained using library-based spectral correlation methods. The findings have important implications for the ability to transfer Raman spectral libraries between instruments. 相似文献

A portable remote Raman instrument for field analysis has been developed. This instrument has been tested in the Arctic conditions during AMASE (Arctic Mars Analog Svalbard Expedition) campaigns 2007, 2008 and 2009. Besides its capability for mineral detection the remote system proved to be a very useful tool for ice structural analysis of icebergs and ice-wall in glaciers. For the first time at our knowledge Arctic ice has been analyzed in situ in different conditions and at distances ranging from 10 to 120m. The spectra obtained have enough quality to be used for quantitative spectral analysis. 相似文献

The analysis of precious artefacts and antiquities demands care in order to minimise the risk of accidental damage during measurement. Mobile fibre-optic-based Raman instruments offer a means to avoid destructive sampling and eliminate the need to transport artefacts for spectrochemical analysis. In this work we present a new mobile instrument developed and optimised for the in situ Raman investigation of objects of art and antiquities. The instrument is controlled by a portable computer. Selected mounts cover many types of artefacts. Newly written software routines organise spectra together with measurement parameters and facilitate calibration of the instrument. The present paper describes this new Raman instrument and discusses some challenges in the transition from a laboratory environment to in situ investigations in museums. 相似文献

In archaeometry, one of the main concerns is to extract information from an art object, without damaging it. Raman spectroscopy is being applied in this research field with recent developments in mobile instrumentation facilitating more routine analysis. This research paper evaluates the performances of five mobile Raman instruments (Renishaw RA100, Renishaw Portable Raman Analyser RX210, Ocean Optics RSL-1, Delta Nu Inspector Raman, Mobile Art Analyser - MArtA) in three different laboratories. A set of samples were collected, in order to obtain information on the spectral performances of the instruments including: spectral resolution, calibration, laser cut-off, the ability to record spectra of organic and inorganic pigments through varnish layers and on the possibilities to identify biomaterials. Spectra were recorded from predefined regions on a canvas painting to simulate the investigation of artworks and the capabilities to record spectra from hardly accessible areas was evaluated. 相似文献

The application of mobile near-infrared (NIR) spectrometers in field measurements is growing. Calibration transfer techniques offer simple solutions for enabling models constructed on benchtop instruments for use on mobile spectrometers. Since different types of spectrometers with different components, scanning ranges and resolutions cause great differences in the spectral response, calibration transfer is difficult to apply. In this paper, we focus on calibration transfer among benchtop, portable and handheld spectrometers by a method of calibration transfer based on canonical correlation analysis (CTCCA). Its capability was illustrated by the example of a group of NIR spectra dataset for predicting reducing sugars, total sugar, and nicotine contents in tobacco leaves. The experimental results showed that the transferability of CTCCA was superior to other conventional calibration transfer methods, including piecewise direct standardization, spectral space transformation, calibration transfer based on independent component analysis, and calibration transfer based on the weight matrix. Moreover, the best transfer results were obtained in the three cases by canonical correlation analysis method executing transfer while the spectra were not interpolated, which shows that this approach has the advantage of easy implementation for calibration transfer. Therefore, CTCCA without interpolation calculation offers a new and simple solution for transferring the spectra acquired by mobile spectrometers to the optimized spectral models built on benchtop devices to improve the accuracy of the results. Additionally, the results show that the benchtop spectrometer is more suitable as the master instrument for calibration transfer with more accurate prediction than using a portable device as the master. 相似文献

Non-destructive analysis of the artist’s palette of ancient wooden panel paintings is a difficult task and studies are rare. Here we compare different methods of analysis of a wooden panel painting, dated to the early sixteenth century, mainly by Raman and infrared spectroscopies. Raman spectra were recorded on collected/sampled micrometric fragments using portable Raman instruments with laser excitation lines at 532 and 785 nm and transportable Raman instruments at 532, 633 and 785 nm; a fixed 1064 nm Raman spectrometer was also used. Infrared analyses were performed in Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR-FTIR) mode. Using the portable instrument, the Raman spectra evidenced white lead, calcite and vermilion only. Raman spectra recorded by transportable and fixed instruments enabled the identification of most of the artist’s palette: (i) white lead, calcite, gypsum and cerussite for white colour; (ii) vermilion, red lead, litharge, haematite for red; (iii) azurite, indigo and lapis lazuli for blue. IR spectra gave information on the organic binding media. XRF analysis on a brown pigment suggested an heterogeneous mixture of a red pigment (such as haematite and/or minium) and a green one as malachite. GC-MS analysis allowed identifying terpenic resin in the composition of the outer protective layer. 相似文献

Handheld Raman spectrometers (Ahura First Defender XL, Inspector Raman DeltaNu) permit the recording of acceptable and good quality spectra of a large majority of minerals outdoors and on outcrops. Raman spectra of minerals in the current study were obtained using instruments equipped with 785 nm diode lasers. Repetitive measurements carried out under an identical instrumental setup confirmed the reliability of the tested Raman spectrometers. Raman bands are found at correct wavenumber positions within ±3 cm(-1) compared to reference values in the literature. Taking into account several limitations such as the spatial resolution and problems with metallic and black and green minerals handheld Raman spectrometers equipped with 785 nm diode lasers can be applied successfully for the detection of minerals from the majority of classes of the mineralogical system. For the detection of biomarkers and biomolecules using Raman spectroscopy, e.g. for exobiological applications, the near infrared excitation can be considered as a preferred excitation. Areas of potential applications of the actual instruments include all kind of common geoscience work outdoors. Modified Raman systems can be proposed for studies of superficial or subsurface targets for Mars or Lunar investigations. 相似文献

Calibration model transfer is essential for practical applications of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy because the measurements of the spectra may be performed on different instruments and the difference between the instruments must be corrected. An approach for calibration transfer based on alternating trilinear decomposition (ATLD) algorithm is proposed in this work. From the three-way spectral matrix measured on different instruments, the relative intensity of concentration, spectrum and instrument is obtained using trilinear decomposition. Because the relative intensity of instrument is a reflection of the spectral difference between instruments, the spectra measured on different instruments can be standardized by a correction of the coefficients in the relative intensity. Two NIR datasets of corn and tobacco leaf samples measured with three instruments are used to test the performance of the method. The results show that, for both the datasets, the spectra measured on one instrument can be correctly predicted using the partial least squares (PLS) models built with the spectra measured on the other instruments. 相似文献

The vital UV-protective and photosynthetic pigments of cyanobacteria and lichens (microbial symbioses) that dominate primary production in Antarctic desert ecosystems auto-fluoresce at short-wavelengths. A long wavelength (1064 nm) near infra-red laser has been used for non-intrusive Raman spectroscopic analysis of their ecologically significant compounds. There is now much interest in the construction of portable Raman systems for the analysis of cyanobacterial and lichen communities in the field; to this extent, Raman spectra obtained with laboratory-based systems operating at wavelengths of 852 and 1064 nm have been evaluated for potential fieldwork applications of miniaturised units. Selected test specimens of the cyanobacterial Nostoc commune, epilithic lichens Acarospora chlorophana, Xanthoria elegans and Caloplaca saxicola and the endolithic Chroococcidiopsis from Antarctic sites have been examined in the present study. Although some organisms gave useable Raman spectra with short-wavelength lasers, 1064 nm was the only excitation that was consistently excellent for all organisms. We conclude that a 1064 nm Raman spectrometer, miniaturised using an InGaAs detector, is the optimal instrument for in situ studies of pigmented communities at the limits of life on Earth. This has practical potential for the quest for biomolecules residual from any former surface or subsurface life on Mars. 相似文献

Mass spectral libraries provide a tool for identifying unknown compounds using both molecular weight and fragmentation information. Mass spectrometers with electrospray ionisation (ESI) and atmospheric chemical ionisation (ApCI) sources have the capability to produce data of this type using in-source collisionally induced dissociation (CID), and in-source CID libraries can be created. Due to the variation in electrospray source design from different instrument manufacturers, the production of reproducible in-source CID spectra that can be used in libraries for all instrument types is not a trivial task. To date, the evaluation of the production of in-source CID libraries has tended to focus on similar instruments from one manufacturer. The studies have also tended to focus on specific compound classes, with a limited molecular weight range.This report describes the findings from the investigation of protocols for the creation of mass spectral libraries using ESI in-source CID on six instruments from four different manufacturers. The overall goal was to create a spectral library for the identification of unknowns. The library could then be applied across all manufacturers' electrospray instruments.Two different experimental protocols were attempted. The first used a tuning compound to establish standard ESI source conditions, with fixed fragmentation potentials. The second involved the attenuation of the [M + H](+) ion to a known degree. A diverse range of compounds (pharmaceutical, photographic, pesticides) was tested to establish the reproducibility of the spectra on the six instruments. Both protocols produced spectra on the various instruments that in many cases were very similar. In other examples, the spectra differed not only in their relative ion abundances, but also in terms of the spectral content. Important observations regarding the effect of ion source design are also reported.The degree of spectral reproducibility was calculated off-line by comparing the five most abundant ions (20% for each ion that matches) from each spectrum on each instrument. This approach was adopted, as we do not possess a software package that met our requirements for spectral comparison. Match factors (% fit) were calculated by comparing each spectrum against the spectra recorded for the same compound and then for all other compounds, on each instrument. The % fit values derived by the off-line approach gave a clear view of the spectral reproducibility from instrument to instrument and also discriminated the spectra of the various compounds from each other. The applicability of this approach was tested using a blind trial in which several compounds were presented as unknowns, their in-source CID spectra recorded and the five-ion approach used for identification. 相似文献

Reproducibility of product ion spectra acquired using a liquid chromatography/triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) instrument over a 4-year period, and with three other LC/MS/MS instruments, one from the same manufacturer and two from a different manufacturer, was examined. The MS/MS spectra of 30 drug substances were generated in positive electrospray ionization mode at low, medium, and high collision energies (20, 35, and 50 eV). Purity and Fit score percentages against a 400-compound LC/MS/MS spectral library were calculated using an algorithm in which fragment intensity ratios and weighting factors were included. The long-term reproducibility study was conducted using a brand A instrument; after 4 years the reproducibility of the product ion spectra was still 94%, expressed as average Purity score. The inter-laboratory study involved two parts. Firstly, two LC/MS/MS spectral libraries, created independently in separate laboratories using brand A instruments, were compared with each other. The average Fit and Purity scores of spectra from one library against the other were better than 93 and 91%, respectively, when the same collision energies were used. Secondly, for the comparison of product ion spectra between brand A and brand B instruments, fragmentation conditions were first standardized for amitriptyline as the standard analyte. The average Fit scores of brand B spectra against the brand A spectral library varied between 79 and 85% at all three collision energies. These results indicate that, after standardizing the instrumental conditions, LC/MS/MS spectral libraries of drug substances are suitable for inter-laboratory use. 相似文献

We have designed and developed two breadboard versions of stand-off Raman spectroscopic systems for landers based on a 5-in. Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope and a small (4-in. diameter) Newtonian telescope receiver. These systems are capable of measuring the Raman spectra of minerals located at a distance of 4.5-66 m from the telescope. Both continuous wave (CW) Ar-ion and frequency doubled Nd:YAG (532 nm) pulsed (20 Hz) lasers are used as excitation sources for measuring remote Raman spectra of rocks and minerals. We have also made complementary measurements on the same rock samples with a micro-Raman system in 180 and 135 degrees geometry for evaluating the system performance and for estimating effect of grain size and laser-induced heating on the spectra of minerals using alpha-quartz as a model mineral. A field portable remote pulsed Raman spectroscopic system based on the 5-in. telescope and an f/2.2 spectrograph has been developed and tested. We have also demonstrated a prototype of a combined Raman and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) system, capable of providing major element composition and mineralogical information on both biogenic and inorganic minerals at a distance of 10 m from the receiver. 相似文献

Product ion spectra produced by collision-induced dissociation (CID) in tandem mass spectrometry experiments can differ markedly between instruments. There have been a number of attempts to standardise the production of product ion spectra; however, a consensus on the most appropriate approach to the reproducible production of spectra has yet to be reached. We have previously reported the comparison of product ion spectra on a number of different types of instruments - a triple quadrupole, two ion traps and a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (Bristow AWT, Webb KS, Lubben AT, Halket JM. Rapid Commun. Mass Spectrom. 2004; 18: 1). The study showed that a high degree of reproducibility was achievable. The goal of this study was to improve the comparability and reproducibility of CID product ion mass spectra produced in different laboratories and using different instruments. This was carried out experimentally by defining a spectral calibration point on each mass spectrometer for product ion formation. The long-term goal is the development of a universal (instrument independent) product ion mass spectral library for the identification of unknowns.The spectra of 48 compounds have been recorded on eleven mass spectrometers: six ion traps, two triple quadrupoles, a hybrid triple quadrupole, and two quadrupole time-of-flight instruments. Initially, 4371 spectral comparisons were carried out using the data from eleven instruments and the degree of reproducibility was evaluated. A blind trial has also been carried out to assess the reproducibility of spectra obtained during LC/MS/MS.The results suggest a degree of reproducibility across all instrument types using the tuning point technique. The reproducibility of the product ion spectra is increased when comparing the tandem in time type instruments and the tandem in space instruments as two separate groups. This may allow the production of a more limited, yet useful, screening library for LC/MS/MS identification using instruments of the same type from different manufacturers. 相似文献

Line-focus Raman microscope system was designed and constructed for high speed quantitative analysis of Raman spectral maps. Laser line generator lens was used for formation of homogeneous laser power distribution thought the line. Three-dimensional Raman maps of mouse skin were obtained using point and line illumination modes. It was shown that laser line illumination can provide Raman spectrum with signal to noise ratio comparable to point illumination mode. The speed of scanning in line-focus mode achieved is two orders of magnitude faster compared to the point illumination mode, which enables ex vivo measurements of large areas of skin surface during a few minutes. Non-negative least squares (NNLS) decomposition of mouse skin spectral maps was done using keratin, lipids, water, lactate, urea and natural moisture factor (NMF) components as library spectra. Fluorescence background of measured spectra was corrected using the fluorescence profile obtained from time-lapse Raman skin measurements, which was used as additional component in NNLS decomposition procedure. The lateral and depth distribution of major skin components obtained from Raman maps mainly correlates with histological information. High-quality line-focus Raman maps from large sample area expand the possibilities of studying skin chemical components distribution. 相似文献

The standardization of near-infrared (NIR) spectra is essential in practical applications, because various instruments are generally employed. However, standardization is challenging due to numerous perturbations, such as the instruments, testing environments, and sample compositions. In order to explain the spectral changes caused by the various perturbations, a two-step standardization technique was presented in this work called mutual–individual factor analysis (MIFA). Taking advantage of the sensitivity of a water probe to perturbations, the spectral information from a water spectral region was gradually divided into mutual and individual parts. With aquaphotomics expertise, it can be found that the mutual part described the overall spectral features among instruments, whereas the individual part depicted the difference of component structural changes in the sample caused by operation and the measurement conditions. Furthermore, the spectral difference was adjusted by the coefficients in both parts. The effectiveness of the method was assessed by using two NIR datasets of corn and wheat, respectively. The results showed that the standardized spectra can be successfully predicted by using the partial least squares (PLS) models developed with the spectra from the reference instrument. Consequently, the MIFA offers a viable solution to standardize the spectra obtained from several instruments when measurements are affected by multiple factors. 相似文献

The X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technique is a common choice in the archaeometric field for in situ investigations with portable
instruments. This work shows that XRF portable systems can be used for quantitative analyses using appropriate software, obtaining
a similar accuracy to that provided with other techniques such as particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE), as shown for an
Egyptian faience pendant and for two glass standards. 相似文献

Trace amounts of street samples of cocaine hydrochloride and N-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxy-amphetamine (MDMA) on natural and synthetic textiles were successfully detected in situ using confocal Raman microscopy. The presence of some excipient bands in the spectra of the drugs did not prevent the unambiguous identification of the drugs. Raman spectra of the drugs were readily obtained without significant interference from the fibre substrates. Interfering bands arising from the fibre natural or synthetic polymer structure and/or dye molecules did not overlap with the characteristic Raman bands of the drugs. If needed, interfering bands could be successfully removed by spectral subtraction. Also, Raman spectra could be acquired from drug particles trapped between the fibres of highly fluorescent textile specimens. The total acquisition time of the spectra of the drug particles was 90 s accomplished non-destructively and without detachment from their substrates. Sample preparation was not required and spectra of the drugs could be obtained non-invasively preserving the integrity of the evidential material for further analysis. 相似文献

This study aims to evaluate the relevance of portable Raman and portable mid-Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) reflectance instruments in monitoring the synthetic treatments applied on plaster substrates, a crucial issue in a conservation work. Some polymeric consolidants and protectives have a relatively short life owing to their degradation, and after some years the surface should be retreated. It follows that any information about the presence and composition of the products applied, their chemical transformations and their distribution on the surfaces is essential. For these purposes, conservation scientists should seek and test new in situ methods, and this is of utmost importance especially in the case of buildings, considering their large dimensions and consequent extensive mapping. The effectiveness of portable Raman and portable mid-FTIR reflectance instruments has been compared by analysing a set of laboratory specimens prepared and treated with variable amounts of products belonging to three classes of polymers; the spectroscopic investigation highlighted, for the first time, the limits and the advantages of portable Raman and portable mid-FTIR reflectance instruments in the detection of small amounts of products commonly employed for the conservation of plasters. 相似文献

Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectra collected from alpha emitters are complicated by artifacts inherent to
the alpha decay process, particularly when using portable instruments. For example, 239Pu EDXRF spectra exhibit a prominent uranium L X-ray emission peak series due to sample alpha decay rather than source-induced
X-ray fluorescence. A portable EDXRF instrument was used to collect qualitative spectra from plutonium and americium, and
metal alloy identification was performed on a Pu-contaminated steel sample. Significant alpha decay-induced X-ray fluorescence
peaks were observed in spectra obtained from the plutonium and americium samples due to the 235U and 237Np daughters, respectively. The plutonium sample was also analyzed by wavelength dispersive XRF (WDXRF) to demonstrate that
alpha decay-induced X-ray emission has a negligible effect on WDXRF spectra. 相似文献

Recently, portable Raman instrumentation has been in demand for geosciences and for future planetary exploration for the identification of both organic and inorganic compounds in situ on Earth and on other planetary bodies, especially on Mars. Here we present the results of the analysis of halite/β-carotene and halite/mellitic acid mixtures, performed by miniaturized Raman instrumentation equipped with 785 and 1064 nm excitation. Various proportions of organics in the halite matrix were examined. The lowest concentration of β-carotene detected using the 785 nm laser was 1 mg kg(-1), with slightly better signals observed with shorter exposure times compared with the bench instrument using the same excitation wavelength. Mellitic acid was identified at the concentration level 10 g kg(-1). The 1064 nm excitation provided a lower sensitivity towards low concentration when compared with the 785 nm excitation. 相似文献
