Quality editorial content

Spectroscopy is a discipline consisting of a wide range of techniques. Whilst

many scientists use a variety of techniques to achieve their analytical goals,

they will not have a detailed understanding of all spectroscopic technqiues. The

articles published in Spectroscopy Europe and Spectroscopy Asia are carefully

edited to ensure that they are of high scientific quality but also will be of interest

to a wide range of our readers, whether they are experts in the technique

covered or not.

Our regular columns, the Tony Davies Column, Quality Matters and the

Sampling Column cover areas of interest to all readers. The Tony Davies Column

alternates between chemometrics and data handling and standards, as well as

a wide range of EU and other initiatives across the whole of spectroscopy. Kim

Esbensen is the Editor for the column on representative sampling: a vital link in

the analytical chain and one that is easy to overlook: no more after you have

read Kim’s contributions.

Quality Matters addresses the ever-increasing importance, and complexity, of

ensuring that our analyses are correct. Chris Burgess, John Hammond and

Peter Jenks guide readers through the minefield of ISO standards and how they

affect the spectroscopic community.

The diary of Future Events is probably the most detailed

listing available of conferences, courses and exhibitions

related to spectroscopy. It is appreciated by our readers and

frequently consulted by those needing to know “what’s on when”.

New Products are important to all readers and published

free of charge after editing. All companies with genuinely

new products in spectroscopy are invited to sent us press

releases. Make sure you include or provide a link to high-resolution images

in case we wish to use them. We are also pleased to receive details of new

application notes.

Our regular Product Focuses (see page 14 for schedule)

highlight products in particular techniques and are an opportunity for you to

promote your products to our wide readership.

IntroductionUnited Nations (UN) projections esti-mate that the world’s population will be around 9.6 billion by 2050. Current projections indicate that feeding such a huge population would require dramat-ically increasing (~70 %) overall food production by 2050. To achieve this goal, the agricultural productivity in developing countries such as Brazil would need to

increase significantly in order to provide more productive, sustainable and inclu-sive food systems to fight poverty and hunger in this massive population. One of the most important factors required to accomplish this task is the understand-ing of soil fertility in order to manage it most effectively.

To achieve this, millions of soil analy-ses are performed every year around the

world to increase crop yields. In Brazil, approximately 4 million soil fertility anal-yses are performed per year, and soil organic matter (SOM) is one of the main factors that support land management. However, the two main conventional methodologies to determine the SOM (Walkley–Black and dry-combustion) are time-consuming and expensive, and hence are not suitable for use on a large

Spectroscopic data supporting investment decisions Antony N. Daviesa,b and Marian Draaismaa

aExpert Capability Group – Measurement and Analytical Science, Nouryon, Deventer, the NetherlandsbSERC, Sustainable Environment Research Centre, Faculty of Computing, Engineering and Science, University of South Wales, UK

So, you are lucky enough to have some capital equipment funds available for a badly needed new spectrometer. You are under pressure to decide how best to invest this hard-won bounty. More importantly, you need to make sure that the investment will fulfil all the expecta-tions of your team. Your justification for a particular instrument must stand up to tough scrutiny by your managers. Cold, hard, factual, analytical data can remove any impression of personal bias in the selection process and make the job of defending any decision, even to friends in unsuccessful supplier companies, much easier.

Why do we need the new spectrometer?... No… Really WHY do we need it?Fundamental to all spectrometer selec-tion actions are the underlying user requirements and business case for the purchase. Without going into a long Fundamentals of Good Project Management sermon, it is good to get clear documentation of your needs. These can then be used as an impartial base for testing the various offerings in the market place. In fact, going through the process of arriving at these require-ments is often extremely useful in firm-ing up various colleagues’ opinions (and challenging their prejudices). It sets clear expectations at the beginning of the selection process.

This is the time when you may also need to focus hard on the “business case” in terms of cash numbers such as: we will be more efficient as we can run 10-times as many samples per week using a fifth of

the expensive consumables. Quite often it is only these cash “return-of-investment” numbers which will interest senior deci-sion makers. If they are not convincing, it will be hard to convince finance-oriented controllers just that a 10 % increase in optical resolution is a sound case for investment!

If you are looking to replace an exist-ing spectrometer, checking what the real workload has been, what methods have been run and what was the range of samples analysed will be a good source of performance specifications. A second benefit of this check is that it can easily provide you with a source of real-world test samples which you can use later when assessing the performance of your shortlist of spectrometer candidates.

If the initial justification is work over-load rather than the impending failure of an outdated model, it is often reveal-ing to check the instrument logs. It is

possible that the spectrometer itself is not measuring 24/7, so a good challenge would be to see if investing in a better/larger autosampler would suffice.

These arguments may vary depending on whether your company or university has good access to capital expenditure, but is light on staff/student numbers to use the equipment. If so, increasing the sample throughput per man-hour of work makes less sense than focus-sing on the quality of the outputs, as you do not have the numbers to keep your new investment running at optimal capacity. On the other hand, where you have excellent numbers of good analysts currently queueing to feed the spec-trometer, but are short of cash to buy instruments, perhaps the speed of the individual measurement will be a critical factor and maybe the use of autosam-plers to keep it running 24/7 will be the appropriate solution.

QUALITY MATTERS

Specifying accuracy and precision criteria for ultraviolet spectrometersChris Burgessa and John P. Hammondb

aBurgess Analytical Consultancy Limited, ‘Rose Rae’, The Lendings, Startforth, Barnard Castle, Co. Durham, DL12 9AB, UKbStarna Scientific Ltd, 52–54 Fowler Road, Hainault Business Park, Hainault, Essex, IG6 3UT, UK

The performance specification of “fitness for purpose” for ultraviolet (UV) spec-trometers used in regulated environ-ments, applying documented control, e.g. pharmacopoeial monographs or internationally recognised control stand-ards, includes the need to specify requirements for absorbance accuracy and precision. This would seem a rela-tively easy task, but there are a variety of ways of specifying the acceptance criteria and hence Decision Rules. These include absolute values, percentage limits, ranges of values and, for precision, standard and relative standard deviations.

The wording specifying these perfor-mance requirements should be scien-tifically sound, clear and unambiguous. Unfortunately, however, given the global nature of international standards, this is not always readily achievable.

Let us consider the easier one of accuracy. This is usually determined by comparative replicate measurements of a certified reference material (CRM). A typical statement of requirement might be:

The absorbance accuracy can be determined from the mean value of six replicate measurements of absorbance of a CRM. The absorbance accuracy of the mean must be ± 0.005 from the certified value (for absorbance values below 1.0 A) or ± 0.005 multiplied by A (for absorbance values above 1.0 A) and that the range of individual values must not exceed ± 0.010 from the certi-fied value (for absorbance values below 1.0 A) or ± 0.010 multiplied by A (for absorbance values above 1.0 A).

With precision, we have two options; one based upon a standard deviation and the other on a range. Typical state-ments might be:

The absorbance precision can be determined from the standard devia-tion of six replicate measurements. This standard deviation must not exceed 0.5 % or 0.5 % multiplied by A for absor-bance values above 1.0 A.or

The absorbance precision can be determined by the range of deviations from the mean of six replicate measure-ments. This range must not exceed ± 0.005 absorbance units (for absor-bance values below 1.0 A) or ± 0.005 multiplied by A (for absorbance values above 1.0 A).

Therefore, we can imagine a speci-fication for absorbance accuracy and precision with four possible acceptance criteria Decision Rules (Table 1).

So, will the selection of some of these criteria make a difference to the decision regarding the “fitness for purpose” of an instrument? The answer is it depends!

Assume that we have a certified refer-ence standard with a certified absorb-ance value at a specified wavelength of 1.000 and we make six measurements on four different instruments. The results are shown in Table 2.

� Instrument 1 is both sufficiently accu-rate and precise for all four criteria, so is unambiguously “fit for purpose”.

� Instrument 2 meets three of the four criteria but fails on the range (Decision Rule 3).

� Instrument 3 meets three of the four criteria but fails on the mean (Decision Rule 1).

� Instrument 4 fails all four criteria so is unambiguously not “fit for purpose”.

From a practical point of view, a choice has to be made to select either Decision Rule 2 or Decision Rule 3. Looking at instrument 2, the stand-ard deviation is comfortably below 0.50 % but the range is outside the acceptance criteria. Contrast this with Instrument 1, for which the range is only 0.001 lower at the upper accept-ance limit.

Decision Rule number Criteria Acceptance limits

#1 Mean absorbance ± 0.005 A from the certifi ed standard

#2 SD of individual absorbances Not greater than 0.5 %

#3 Range of individual absorbances ± 0.010 A

#4 Range of individual deviations from observed mean absorbance

± 0.010 A

SPECTROLAB S OES analyserSPECTRO Analytical Instruments has introduced the SPECTROLAB S high-performance arc/spark optical emission spectrometry (OES) analyser for the analysis of metal in process control and research applications. The instrument includes SPECTRO’s propri-etary CMOS+T technology. Its high speed enables it to analyse low alloy steel, for example, in less than 20 s. Calibration is easy and cost-efficient, needing only a single-sample, 5-minute stand-ardisation. In most cases, iCAL 2.0 diagnostics ensure stable performance from then on—regardless of most shifts in ambi-ent temperature or pressure. New elements or matrices can be added via a simple software update, eliminating the need for hardware modifications. The SPECTROLAB S’s sealed, no-purge optical system maximises light transmission stability, even in the far UV. Its software utilises online drift correction and iCAL 2.0 temperature compensation for reproducible readings, even over successive shifts or maintenance intervals.SPECTRO Analytical Instruments

IMAGINGNew look for Lumetta fixed grating spectrographHORIBA Scientific has announced a new look for its Lumetta fixed grating spectrograph. The new design houses an F/2 spec-trograph with a large area sensor. It is designed to gather light from most fibres and high angle scattering phenomena. As an imaging spectrograph, it also enables advanced techniques such as multitrack spectroscopy and fast hyperspectral imaging. With multitrack spectroscopy, multiple independent spectros-copy channels can be measured with Lumetta, either improv-ing sample measurement throughput for similar measurements on different samples, or simultaneous measurement of differ-ent but complementary spectra such as photoluminescence and absorbance from the same sample. A scientific grade I CCD deep cooled to –50 °C, together with low noise 16-bit electron-ics, produces a signal-to-noise ratio of 1200 : 1 and its deep cooling allows signal integration for hours. Lumetta also offers a

flexible signal input interface, accommodating free-space as well as FC, SMA and ferrule fibre interfaces. Spectral resolution can be controlled from a selection of interchangeable slits.HORIBA Scientific

We can offer a wide range of ways to make your message stand out.

Belly band

An increasingly popular option. Belly bands enclose the entire issue and readers cannot help

noticing them!

Contact us for a quotation.

Spot varnish, metallic inks, a reply card attached to your advertisement with low-tack glue, or even

personalised covers can all be provided. Contact us with details of your requirements and we’ll

provide a custom quotation.

Inserts bound into the magazine or inserted loose are a very cost-effective way of reaching our

readership. Inserts can be targeted by country and techniques of readers if required (extra fees

apply).
