Rapid monitoring the water extraction process of Radix Paeoniae Alba using near infrared spectroscopy

Abstract

Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been developed into one of the most important process analytical techniques (PAT) in a wide¯eld of applications. The feasibility of NIR spectroscopy with partial least square regression (PLSR) to monitor the concentration of paeoni°orin, albi-°o rin, gallic acid, and benzoyl paeoni°orin during the water extraction process of Radix Paeoniae Alba was demonstrated and veri¯ed in this work. NIR spectra were collected in transmission mode and pretreated with smoothing and/or derivative, and then quantitative models were built up using PLSR. Interval partial least squares (iPLS) method was used for the selection of spectral variables. Determination coe±cients (R 2 cal and R 2 pred ), root mean squares error of prediction (RMSEP), root mean squares error of calibration (RMSEC), and residual predictive deviation (RPD) were applied to verify the performance of the models, and the corresponding values were 0.9873 and 0.9855, 0.0487 mg/mL, 0.0545 mg/mL and 8.4 for paeoni°orin; 0.9879, 0.9888, 0.0303 mg/mL, 0.0321 mg/mL and 9.1 for albi°orin; 0.9696, 0.9644, 0.0140 mg/mL, 0.0145 mg/mL and 5.1 for gallic acid; 0.9794, 0.9781, 0.00169 mg/mL, 0.00171 mg/mL and 6.9 for benzoyl paeoni°orin, respectively. The results turned out that this approach was very e±cient and environmentally friendly for the quantitative monitoring of the water extraction process of Radix Paeoniae Alba.

Trends in digital detection for the quality and safety of herbs using infrared and Raman spectroscopy

“…Experiments were conducted on a laboratory scale, verifying the NIR for detecting CPPs. The extraction ( Wang et al., 2015 ; Hu et al., 2017 ; Li et al., 2018 ; Lyu et al., 2018 ; Zhong et al., 2018 ; Hua et al., 2021 ) and purification processes ( Luo et al., 2017 ; Huang and Qu, 2018 ) based on the NIRS-PLS model, which showed the application potential of NIR in PAT analysis. The relationship between NIRS and CPPs content was more complicated, and non-linear prediction models, such as SVM, ANN, and CNN, may be more suitable ( Qu et al., 2004 ; Liu et al., 2017 ).…”

At-Line Monitoring of the Extraction Process of Rosmarini Folium via Wet Chemical Assays, UHPLC Analysis, and Newly Developed Near-Infrared Spectroscopic Analysis Methods

“…Furthermore, resource and cost efficiency can be increased by extraction optimization. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy represent attractive analysis techniques for the research demand regarding the at-line, on-line, or in-line analysis of phytoextraction processes [3,8,9,10,11,12,13,14]. In contrast to common off-line reference analyses, NIR spectroscopic process monitoring as process analytical technology (PAT) has convincing advantages since its operation is non-destructive, contact-free, pollution-free, does not require any additional solvents, saves energy, and is highly cost-effective.…”

In-situ monitoring of saccharides removal of alcohol precipitation using near-infrared spectroscopy

“…NIR spectroscopy can be used to measure many chemical compositions and physical properties (such as temperature, viscosity, and granularity) and can, therefore, play an important role in HM quality control and improving the continuous process control strategies, quality veri¯cation, and real-time release (RTR). [23][24][25] However, NIR calibrations often require a sampling procedure for reference measurements, which is particularly important in PAT applications using spectroscopic probes, because reference values of samples are biased against the real process state.…”
