Near infrared diode laser spectroscopy of organic compounds in turbid aqueous solutions

  • Diffuse reflectance measurements and photon migration studies with near infrared (NIR) diode lasers were employed to elucidate experimental methods for determining absorption and scattering coefficients and species concentrations in highly scattering solutions. Applicability of theoretical approaches were established by investigating model systems with absorbing (e.g. ink, malachite green) and scattering (e.g. milk powder, caolinit) species in aqueous solution. While diffuse reflectance measurements practically requires calibration procedures, photon migration studies allow quantitative determination of absorption and scattering coefficients of turbid solutions consistent with absorptions coefficients obtained from Lambert-Beer's law. Furthermore, NIR absorption spectra of water, chlorinated hydrocarbons (chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane, trichloroethene) and of various sugars ($alpha$-D-glucose, sucrose, maltose) are discussed. Spectral variations of NIR water absorption with temperature and solvents are exammined.
