Abstract
The effects of human activities are becoming clearer every year, with multiple reports of struggling and eroded ecosystems resulting in new threats of plant and animal extinctions throughout the world. It has been speculated that roadside tea-growing soils impact on metal dynamics from soil to tea plants and subsequently to tea infusion which may be threatened by increasingly unpredictable and dangerous surroundings. Furthermore, heavy metals released from vehicles on the national highway (NH) could be a source of metal contamination in roadside tea soils and tea plants. This study was articulated to realize the effect of NH on a buildup of selected metals (Cu, Cd, Fe, Mn, Ni, and Zn) in made tea along with repeated tea infusion. In general, metal concentration was found significantly higher in made tea prepared from the young shoots collected from the vicinity of NH. The results also showed that distance from the NH and infusion process significantly influenced to content of the analysed metal in tea infusions. The mean average daily intake (ADI) and hazard quotient (HQ) values of analysed tea samples were found in the orderMn˃Fe˃Zn˃Cu˃Ni˃Cd and Mn˃Cu˃Zn˃Fe˃Ni˃Cd, respectively. The HQ values of all analysed metals were found << 1, indicating that ingestion of tea infusion with analysed heavy metals should not cause a danger to human health. However, this study further demonstrates the consumption of tea infusion prepared from made tea around the vicinity of NH may contribute to a significantly higher quantity of metal intake in the human body. From the hierarchical cluster analysis, it has been observed that there are three homogenous groups of analysed heavy metals.

Abstract
Aroma is an important index to evaluate the quality and grade of black tea. This work innovatively proposed the sensory evaluation of black tea aroma quality based on an olfactory visual sensor system. Firstly, the olfactory visualization system, which can visually represent the aroma quality of black tea, was assembled using a lab-made color sensitive sensor array including eleven porphyrins and one pH indicator for data acquisition and color components extraction. Then, the color components from different color sensitive spots were optimized using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. Finally, the back propagation neural network (BPNN) model was developed using the optimized characteristic color components for the sensory evaluation of black tea aroma quality. Results demonstrated that the BPNN models, which were developed using three color components from FTPPFeCl (component G), MTPPTE (component B) and BTB (component B), can get better results based on comprehensive consideration of the generalization performance of the model and the fabrication cost of the sensor. In the validation set, the average of correlation coefficient (RP) value was 0.8843 and the variance was 0.0362. The average of root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) was 0.3811 and the variance was 0.0525. The overall results sufficiently reveal that the optimized sensor array has promising applications for the sensory evaluation of black tea products in the process of practical production.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the elemental composition of black tea samples and their infusions in view of their geographical origin. In total, 14 elements were analyzed, 13 (Ca, K, Mg, Na, Mn, Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr, Ni, Co, Cd, and Pb) by flame atomic absorption spectrometry, and P by UV-Vis spectrometry, after mineralization of samples. It was found that K was the most abundant macroelement in the analyzed samples, whereas among microelements, the highest concentration was found for Mn. Based on the obtained data, the percentage of elements leached into the infusions as well as the daily elemental intake from tea were calculated. The daily intake from tea was compared to the recommended daily allowances (RDAs), and the highest percentages of the RDAs were found for Mn (15 %) and Co (10 %). To study the relations between elemental composition and country of origin of samples, factor analysis and cluster analysis were applied. These multivariate techniques proved to be efficient tools able to differentiate samples according to their provenance as well as plantation within the common regions.
