Aquaphotomics study of fresh cannabis inflorescence: near infrared spectral analysis of water matrix structures.

ABSTRACT: Aquaphotomics is an approach that describes the water-light interactions in aqueous solutions or biological systems and retrieves information about the nature of the underlying water-related interactions. We evaluated the water spectral pattern (WASP) and water matrix structure of freshly harvested cannabis inflorescence from seven different chemovars using near-infrared (NIR) spectral data coupled with chemometric models. Six activated water bands-1342, 1364, 1384, 1412, 1440, and 1462 nm, occurred consistently in all of the spectrum exploration steps as well as in the partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) steps. However, according to major class and chemovar aquagram values, the largest spectral variation was associated with the following bands: 1412, 1364, 1374, 1384, 148
