Detecting Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) Using A-TEEM Fluorescence Spectroscopy

Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is a crucial parameter in assessing water quality, representing the amount of oxygen consumed by microorganisms in decomposing organic matter. Traditional BOD measurement methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive. Recently, A-TEEM (Absorbance–Transmittance Excitation–Emission Matrix) fluorescence spectroscopy has emerged as a rapid and effective alternative for BOD detection. This application note outlines a study by T. Ingwani et al., demonstrating the use of A-TEEM fluorescence spectroscopy combined with chemometric modeling for accurate BOD prediction in surface water.
