This tutorial review provides an overview of common chemometric methods, and their potential uses within forensic science for evidence interpretation optimisation analytical procedures.

Standard raw material test methods such as the ISO Standard 11024 are focused on the identification of lavender oil and not the actual class/quality of the oil. However, the quality of the oil has a significant effect on its price at market. As such, there is a need for raw material tests to identify not only the type of oil but its quality. This paper describes two approaches to rapidly identi...

1-[4-(2-Alkylaminoethoxy) phenylcarbonyl]-3,5-bis(arylidene)-4-piperidones are a novel class of potent cytotoxic agents. These compounds demonstrate low micromolar to submicromolar IC50 values against human Molt 4/C8 and CEM T-lymphocytes and murine leukemia L1210 cells. In this study, a comparative QSAR investigation was performed on a series of 3,5-bis (arylidene)-4-piperidones using differen...

In the process analytical technology (PAT) initiative, the application of sensors technology and modeling methods is promoted. The emphasis is on Quality by Design, online monitoring, and closed-loop control with the general aim of building in product quality into manufacturing operations. As a result, online high-throughput process analyzers find increasing application and therewith high amoun...

The compensation method and other chemometric methods (derivative, orthogonal function and difference spectrophotometry) have been applied to the direct determination of omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole in their pharmaceutical preparations. The methods have been validated; the limits of detection were found to be 3.3x10(-2), 3.0x10(-2) and 3.5x10(-2) microgram ml(-1) for the three drug...

Modern research data, where a large number of functional predictors is collected on few subjects are becoming increasingly common. In this paper we propose a variable selection technique, when the predictors are functional and the response is scalar. Our approach is based on adopting a generalized functional linear model framework and using a penalized likelihood method that simultaneously cont...
