Abstract: | In the present work, the determination of the total protein concentration in hyperimmune serum samples was performed through a partial least-squares near-infrared (NIR-PLS) method. The method was based on the chemometric treatment of the NIR spectra of samples. The influences of spectra preprocessing and spectral window utilized in the construction of PLS model were studied. Models were built using reference data of 19 samples selected through the use of hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) of NIR spectra of samples and another 24 samples were employed for external validation of the method. A model with better prediction capacity was obtained after whole spectra preprocessing by multiplicative scattering correction (MSC) algorithm and using data in the spectral range of 2158-2209 nm. Under optimized conditions a RMSEP of 0.21 g dl−1 and a quality coefficient value (QC) of only 5.8% were obtained for the prediction of total protein content in the samples used for external validation. Also, a determination coefficient, r2, of 0.97 was obtained in the correlation of predicted and reference data of samples situated in the validation set. |
