Determination of Chlorogenic Acid in Plant Samples by Using Near-Infrared Spectrum with Wavelet Transform Preprocessing

By theoretical analysis, it is found that wavelet transform (WT) with a wavelet function can be regarded as a smoothing and a differentiation process, and that the order of differentiation is determined by the vanishing moment, which is an important property of a wavelet function. Therefore, a method based on the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) for removing the background in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum is proposed, and it is used in the determination of the chlorogenic acid in plant samples as a preprocessing tool for partial least square (PLS) modeling. It is shown that the benefit of the proposed method lies not only in its performance to improve the quality of PLS model and the prediction precision, but also in its simplicity and practicability. It may become a convenient and efficient tool for preprocessing NIR spectral data sets in multivariate calibration.
