Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Near Infrared Spectroscopy
About this ebook
The book explores the latest methods, techniques, and emerging trends in NIR spectroscopy that were presented and discussed at NIR 2023. It explores the underlying fundamental science, development of innovative instrumentation, methods as well as cutting-edge data analysis techniques, and their applications in key fields such as pharmaceuticals, food analysis, agriculture, biomedical diagnostics, and environmental monitoring. Each article within this volume represents current trends in the field of NIR spectroscopy, presenting original research and practical insights. Reflecting the topics of the premier NIR spectroscopy conference, this book forms an indispensable resource for researchers, practitioners, and students seeking to stay at the forefront of NIR spectroscopy. The hope is that the Proceedings of NIR 2023 will serve as a catalyst for further exploration, collaboration, and innovation in the dynamic realm of NIR spectroscopy.
