In fact, the number of persons without safe drinking water is increasing, even though it is an essential ingredient for human health and development. The enormity of the problem also makes it a critical environmental and public health issue. Therefore, there is a critical need for  easy-to-use, compact and sensitive techniques for water quality monitoring. Raman spectroscopy has been a very powerful technique to characterize chemical composition and has been applied to many areas, including chemistry, food, material science or pharmaceuticals. The development of advanced Raman techniques and improvements in instrumentation, has significantly improved the performance of modern Raman spectrometers so that it can now be used for detection of low concentrations of chemicals such as in-line monitoring of chemical and pharmaceutical contaminants in water. This paper briefly introduces the fundamentals of Raman spectroscopy, reviews the development of Raman instrumentations and discusses advanced and potential Raman techniques for in-line water quality monitoring.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s140917275","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,9,16]],"date-time":"2014-09-16T11:38:13Z","timestamp":1410867493000},"page":"17275-17303","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":91,"title":["Raman Spectroscopy for In-Line Water Quality  Monitoring\u2014Instrumentation and Potential"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Zhiyun","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biomedical Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON L8S 4K1, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6390-0933","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"M.","family":"Deen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biomedical Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON L8S 4K1, Canada"},{"name":"Electrical and Computer Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON L8S 4K1 Canada"},{"name":"Electronic and Computer Engineering, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology,  Clear Water Bay, Kowloon, Hong Kong, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shiva","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Electrical and Computer Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON L8S 4K1 Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2041-7180","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"P.","family":"Selvaganapathy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Biomedical Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON L8S 4K1, Canada"},{"name":"Mechanical Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON L8S 4K1, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,9,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Bartram, J., and Balance, R.
