Infrared spectroscopy is a widely used method of analysis to monitor various characteristics in the honey products analysis, highlight these changes and detect fraudulent modifications. In this way could not be avoided. This article reviews some most important applications spectroscopic procedures order discriminate different types other published between 2015–2022.

BACKGROUND The seminal plasma is an excellent source for noninvasive detection of spermatogenesis. The seminal plasma of normospermic and azoospermic men has been analyzed for detection of spermatogenesis. METHODS Optical spectroscopy (Attenuated Total Reflectance-Infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR) and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) has been used to analyze the seminal plasma and...

Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a fundamental technique capable to characterize proteins and to investigate their conformation and dynamics in real physiological environments. Actually, a FTIR spectrum is characterized by many features, which may be correlated to the different components of the protein structure. In the last decade many relevant results have been achieved with...

Infrared spectroscopy is one of the oldest and well established experimental techniques for the analysis of secondary structure of polypeptides and proteins. It is convenient, non-destructive, requires less sample preparation, and can be used under a wide variety of conditions. This review introduces the recent developments in Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy technique and its app...

The evolution of papermaking from XII century, in Europe, was characterized by continuous changes of fibrous and non-fibrous materials as cellulose, wood pulp, sizing agents, fillers and coatings. In this study, the composition of many ancient paper documents is analysed by means of non-destructive Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) in order to identify the main components of paper ...

SnCl4/nano-sawdust was prepared as a carbohydrate-based catalyst containing of tin bearing cellulose units. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The catalyst was applied successfully as a readily available, inexpensive, biodeg...
