“…In our case, the system was composed of a 150 W QTH lamp (66088 Fiber Optic Illuminator, 150 W QTH, Oriel Instruments, Newport Corporation, Irvine, CA) with a liquid light guide (LLG) (OSL1–High-Intensity Fiber Light Source from THORLABS, Newton, NJ), an optical fiber (OF) with a core diameter of 300 µm (P300-1-SR from Ocean Optics, Largo, FL) connected to a spectrometer with a charge-coupled device (CCD) detector (HR4C3337 from Ocean Optics), and a computer with dedicated software installed (Ocean View from Ocean Optics). 31 The LLG and OF were coupled to a single probe to accomplish requirements as suggested by the American Society for Testing and Materials. 32 In this probe, in order to collect the reflected light, the OF was connected to a collimator lens.…”
