An in-situ monitoring model of alcoholic fermentation based on Raman spectroscopy was developed in this study. By optimizing the acquisition parameters and using standard solutions to construct a learning database, the model achieved good prediction results using principal component analysis and partial least squares methods.
An in-situ monitoring model of alcoholic fermentation based on Raman spectroscopy was developed in this study. The optimized acquisition parameters were an 80 s exposure time with three accumulations. Standard solutions were prepared and used to populate a learning database. Two groups of mixed solutions were prepared for a validation database to simulate fermentation at different conditions. First, all spectra of the standards were evaluated by principal component analysis (PCA) to identify the spectral features of the target substances and observe their distribution and outliers. Second, three multivariate calibration models for prediction were developed using the partial least squares (PLS) method, either on the whole learning database or subsets. The limit of detection (LOD) of each model was estimated by using the root mean square error of cross validation (RMSECV), and the prediction ability was further tested with both validation datasets. As a result, improved LODs were obtained: 0.42 and 1.55 g & sdot;L-1 for ethanol and glucose using a sub-learning dataset with a concen-tration range of 0.5 to 10 g & sdot;L-1. An interesting prediction result was obtained from a cross-mixed validation set, which had a root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) for ethanol and glucose of only 3.21 and 1.69, even with large differences in mixture concentrations. This result not only indicates that a model based on standard solutions can predict the concentration of a mixed solution in a complex matrix but also offers good prospects for applying the model in real bioreactors.
