Advancing Near-Infrared Spectroscopy and Machine Learning for Personalized Medicine
February 12th 2025Researchers have developed a novel approach to improve the accuracy of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS or NIR) in quantifying highly porous, patient-specific drug formulations. By combining machine learning with advanced Raman imaging, the study enhances the precision of non-destructive pharmaceutical analysis, paving the way for better personalized medicine.
Regulatory Barriers: Unlocking Near-Infrared Spectroscopy’s Potential in Food Analysis
November 25th 2024Despite its widespread adoption in food quality analysis, near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy lags behind in regulatory recognition. A study led by researchers from Italy and Spain highlights the disparity between its scientific applications and official methods, urging standardized regulations to fully leverage NIR's sustainability benefits.
New Spectroscopy Method Shows Promise for Detecting Olive Oil Fraud
November 12th 2024Researchers from the University of Cordoba have validated a novel spectroscopy technique to help distinguish between extra virgin and virgin olive oils. This approach could support existing panel-based tests, which are often slow, costly, and subjective, by providing a faster, non-destructive screening option.
Breaking Spectral Boundaries: New Ultrafast Spectrometer Expands Detection Range for NIR Studies
October 29th 2024A team from Auburn University has developed an innovative ultrabroadband near-infrared (NIR) transient absorption (TA) spectrometer capable of detecting across a wide spectral range of 900–2350 nm in a single experiment. This advancement improves the study of ultrafast processes in low-bandgap materials and opens doors to new insights in photochemistry and charge dynamics.
