研究目的
To describe the theoretical aspects of wavelet transform methodologies and its typical implementations for UV spectroscopic analysis of pharmaceuticals.
研究成果
Continuous wavelet transform-based UV spectroscopic analysis methods have outperformed both conventional and derivative UV spectroscopy in resolving spectrally binary and ternary mixtures. However, wavelet analysis may not also have a sufficient power to resolve overlapping spectra of analytes in samples due to similarity of molecular structures and signal frequencies in some cases. They may not give desirable results for a complex mixture containing more than three compounds and/or a significant difference in ratios of active ingredients. In such a case, the use of WT coupled with chemometric PLS and PCR calibrations is advisable.
