Since the article by Spedding1 on infrared spectroscopy and carbohydrate chemistry was published in this Series in 1964, important advances in both infrared and Raman spectroscopy have been achieved. The discovery2 of the fast Fourier transform (f.F.t.) algorithm in 1965 revitalized the field of infrared spectroscopy. The use of the f.F.t., and the introduction of efficient minicomputers, permitted the development of a new generation of infrared instruments called Fourier-transform infrared (F.t.-i.r.) spectrophotometers. The development of F.t.-i.r. spectroscopy resulted in the setting up of the software necessary to undertake signal averaging, and perform the mathematical manipulation of the spectral data in order to extract the maximum of information from the spectra.3...
