Abstract
Correspondence analysis was used to classify the pattern-like FT-IR spectra of intact bacteria. The analysis was performed on a data set of approximately 80 normalized spectral derivatives of a selection of pathogenic bacteria. The correspondence analysis proved that the various different bacterial species were clustering in distinct regions of the correspondence maps suggesting that there do exist correlations between spectral data and biochemical/microbiological classification.
