Quantitative analysis of the illegal addition of Atenolol in Panax notoginseng based on NIR-MIR spectral data fusion and calibration transfer

RSC Adv. 2024 Apr 17;14(18):12428-12437. doi: 10.1039/d3ra08183d. eCollection 2024 Apr 16.ABSTRACTTo address the issue of the common illegal addition of Atenolol in Panax notoginseng, we propose an approach that realizes multivariate calibration transfer between different particle sizes based on near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectral data fusion. To achieve high prediction accuracy, we construct three data fusion schemes (full-spectrum fusion, feature-level fusion, and decision-level fusion) that combine NIR and MIR spectral data. Among three data fusion schemes, the feature-level fusion based on the UVE-SPA-PLS model for 120-mesh spectral data achieves optimal prediction accuracy. Here, a Piecewise Direct Standardization (PDS) algorithm has been applied to calibration transfer from 100-mesh and 80-mesh to 120-mesh to reduce the influence of particle size and improve the robustness of the model. The correlation coefficient (R2) of 100-mesh, and 80-mesh prediction sets can reach 0.9861 and 0.9823, respectively. The corresponding root mean square error (RMSE) are 0.1545 and 0.2045, respectively. This research provides a method for illegal additions in precious herbs and reduces the effect of particle size on spectral modeling, enabling high-precision quantitative detection. In addition, it has important application prospects in reducing experimental losses of precious medicinal materials and ensuring the safe use of Chinese and Western medicines, which provides an ...
