Fulladosa E, Barnés-Calle C, Cruz J, Martínez B, Giró-Candanedo M, Comaposada J, Font-I-Furnols M, Gou P. Near infrared sensors for the precise characterization of salt content in canned tuna fish. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 303:123217.

Abstract
Non-invasive technologies could help to guarantee quality standards of canned tuna fish. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of bench-top (FT-NIR) and low-cost (LC-NIR) near infrared spectrometers to determine salt content and texture in canned tuna. Salt content distribution was also investigated using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and computed tomography. Spectra were acquired on canned tuna and reference analysis performed. Partial least squares regression and discriminant analysis were used to develop salt content predictive and texture classification models. Salt content predictive errors were 0.10%, 0.22% and 0.22% for FT-NIR, LC-NIR and HSI, respectively. Salt content was not always homogeneously distributed in the can which was attributed to the salt content differences between internal and external parts of the tuna fish. Low-cost sensors could be a suitable solution to standardise the production and enable precise nutritional labelling, but more sophisticated algorithms are needed to identify textural defects.

Abstract
As a prognostic biomarker for breast cancer, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) is of crucial diagnostic value. Here, a label-free electrochemical aptasensor was established for the ultrasensitive detection of HER-2 using a modified electrode of Bi-Sb alloy materials (Bi-Sb AMs). The performance of the aptasensor was enhanced greatly due to the introduction of Bi-Sb alloy materials (Bi-Sb AMs) with high conductivity. Furthermore, by integrating the aptasensor with the Sensit Smart U-disk electrochemical analyzer, the point-of-care testing (POCT) for HER-2 was realized. Under the optimal experimental parameters, the POCT analyzer showed a wide linear response from 0.01 pg mL-1 to 100 ng mL-1, with a low detection limit (LOD) of 5.96 fg mL-1 for the detection of HER-2. The presented POCT analyzer exhibited good specificity, stability, and reproducibility. Benefiting from the simple operation and rapid testing, the developed analyzer will have potential application in the prognostic diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.

Performance of a Handheld Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Device to Predict Pork Primal Belly Fat Iodine Value and Loin Lean Intramuscular Fat Content. Foods 2023; 12:foods12081629.

Abstract
The increase in market demand and economic value of Canadian pork primal cuts has led to a need to assess advanced technologies capable of measuring quality traits. Fat and lean composition were measured using a Tellspec near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy device to predict the pork belly fat iodine value (IV) and loin lean intramuscular fat (IMF) content in 158 pork belly primals and 419 loin chops. The calibration model revealed a 90.6% and 88.9% accuracy for the Tellspec NIR to predict saturated fatty acids (SFA) and IV, respectively, in the belly fat. The calibration model accuracy for the other belly fatty acids revealed an accuracy of 66.3-86.1%. Using the Tellspec NIR to predict loin lean IMF reported a lower accuracy for moisture (R2 = 60) and fat % (R2 = 40.4). This suggests that Tellspec NIR spectroscopy measures on the pork belly primal offers a cost-efficient, rapid, accurate, and non-invasive indicator of pork belly IV and could be used for the classification for specific markets.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a non-destructive, efficient and convenient detection technology, with the emergence of portable NIR spectrometers, NIR mobile applications (APPs) come into being. The popularity of intelligent mobile phones provides an impetus to the research and development of NIR APPs, however, the primary functions such as operating the NIR spectrometers and collecting data cannot satisfy NIR users in the field of data processing. Herein, we propose an APP processing NIR data locally at the mobile terminal, by the comprehensive utilization of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Cuckoo Search algorithm optimized Support Vector Classifier with radial basis function (RBFSVC) kernel (CS-RBFSVC). 738 NIR samples of four drugs (Cydiodine Buccal Tablets, Sulfasalazine Enteric-coated Tablets, Dexamethasone Acetate Tablets, Vecuronium Bromide for Injection) were used as the validation objects to train and test the data classification model. Firstly, the original data were subjected to dimensional reduction through PCA for the purpose of compressing calculation amount. Secondly, the CS-RBFSVC model was utilized to classify the types of drugs and their manufacturers, moreover, the improved accuracy and efficiency by introducing Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithm into RBFSVC were proven in comparison with the conventional grid optimized RBFSVC (Grid-RBFSVC) and Linear Support Vector Classifier (Linear-SVC). Last but not least, an APP based on the proposed PCA and CS-RBFSVC model is developed and demonstrated to be able to classify the type of drugs with an accuracy of 100%, the accuracies of classifying the drugs' manufacturers were 100%, 100%, 98.3% and 90.7%, respectively. Conclusively, the proposed PCA and CS-RBFSVC based model can provide a low-consumption, high accuracy and quick strategy for NIR data classification and overcome the limitations of internal storage and operating speed at phone terminals, in conjunction with the portable NIR spectrometer, it is believed to push forward NIR technology into the instant detection and on-site inspection.

Abstract
The potential of four dimension reduction methods for near-infrared spectroscopy was investigated, in terms of predicting the protein, fat, and moisture contents in lamb meat. With visible/near-infrared spectroscopy at 400-1050 nm and 900-1700 nm, respectively, calibration models using partial least squares regression (PLSR) or multiple linear regression (MLR) between spectra and quality parameters were established and compared. The MLR prediction models for all three quality parameters based on the wavelengths selected by stepwise regression achieved the best results in the spectral region of 400-1050 nm. As for the spectral region of 900-1700 nm, the PLSR prediction model based on the raw spectra or high-correlation spectra achieved better results. The results of this study indicate that sampling interval shortening and of peak-to-trough jump features are worthy of further study, due to their great potential in explaining the quality parameters.

Abstract
Traditional soil nitrogen detection methods have the characteristics of being time-consuming and having an environmental pollution effect. We urgently need a rapid, easy-to-operate, and non-polluting soil nitrogen detection technology. In order to quickly measure the nitrogen content in soil, a new method for detecting the nitrogen content in soil is presented by using a near-infrared spectrum technique and random forest regression (RF). Firstly, the experiment took the soil by the Xunsi River in the area of Hubei University of Technology as the research object, and a total of 143 soil samples were collected. Secondly, NIR spectral data from 143 soil samples were acquired, and chemical and physical methods were used to determine the content of nitrogen in the soil. Thirdly, the raw spectral data of soil samples were denoised by preprocessing. Finally, a forecast model for the soil nitrogen content was developed by using the measured values of components and modeling algorithms. The model was optimized by adjusting the changes in the model parameters and Gini coefficient (∆Gini), and the model was compared with the back propagation (BP) and support vector machine (SVM) models. The results show that: the RF model modeling set prediction R2C is 0.921, the RMSEC is 0.115, the test set R2P is 0.83, and the RMSEP is 0.141; the detection of the soil nitrogen content can be realized by using a near-infrared spectrum technique and random forest algorithm, and its prediction accuracy is better than that of the BP and SVM models; using ∆ Gini to optimize the RF modeling data, the spectral information of the soil nitrogen content can be extracted, and the data redundancy can be reduced effectively.

The Near-Infrared Spectroscopy of Ethanol-Fixed Tissues to Detect Illicit Treatments with Glucocorticoids in Bulls. Foods 2022; 11:foods11193001.

Abstract
This study aimed to set up indirect, rapid methods involving near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy analysis, to detect illicit treatments with glucocorticoids in bull. The ethanol fixation method (EtOH) was applied to 7 different tissues obtained from 20 Friesian bulls, 12 of which were experimentally administered with dexamethasone as part of a growth-promoting protocol for 60 days and slaughtered 26 days after the end of the treatment. A perfect discrimination was obtained for the 7 sampled tissues, considering a full UV-Vis-NIR range (350 ÷ 2500 nm), for both false positive and negative animals. The validated true positive and negative errors were zero for the longissimus thoracis muscle, 10% for the skin-dermis, 15% for the fat, 25% for the thymus gland and the semitendinosus muscle, 30% for the sternomandibularis muscle and 35% for the skin-hair. A multiple test on the most accessible tissues, that is, the thymus gland, the sternomandibularis muscle and fat, can be used as an alternative to provide indications about animals that have been subjected to illicit treatments. In the short space of three days from the slaughter, NIR spectroscopy of ETOH fixed tissues, would allow at least cost the detection of a probable illicit which could eventually be reported to health authorities for specific investigation in the frame of official controls.

Abstract
Azodicarbonamide (ADA) is widely used as a flour additive due to its oxidizing and bleaching properties, but it reacts with wet flour during heat processing and is easily decomposed into semicarbazide with genotoxicity and carcinogenicity. In order to improve the efficiency of food safety supervision and expand the scope of food safety control, it is of great significance to develop a facile method for point-of-care testing (POCT) of ADA. Herein, a field-portable and universal smartphone-based photoacoustic (PA) integration device is constructed for quantitative POCT of ADA in flour. The recognition probe Prussian blue with favorable stability is loaded on a flexible substrate for fabricating a portable test strip. In the presence of target ADA, the PA signal changes driven by a modulated 808 nm laser beam can be conveniently collected through the recording application (Audio Lab) of the smartphone. By combining the economic test strip and portable PA device with smartphone readout, it not only greatly simplifies the operation steps but also dramatically reduces the size and cost of the instrument. There is a favorable linear relationship between the PA signal and ADA concentration in the range of 10-200 μmol L-1 (R2 = 0.9928), and a detection limit of 5 μmol L-1 obtained is much lower than the maximum allowable ADA level in the extract of flour (388 μmol L-1). The present miniature PA device with strong POCT ability holds enormous public health significance and economic value in the field of food safety, especially in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
Traditional chemical methods for testing the fat content of millet, a widely consumed grain, are time-consuming and costly. In this study, we developed a low-cost and rapid method for fat detection and quantification in millet. A miniature NIR spectrometer connected to a smartphone was used to collect spectral data from millet samples of different origins. The standard normal variate (SNV) and first derivative (1D) methods were used to preprocess spectral signals. Variable selection methods, including bootstrapping soft shrinkage (BOSS), the variable iterative space shrinkage approach (VISSA), iteratively retaining informative variables (IRIV), iteratively variable subset optimization (IVSO), and competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), were used to select characteristic wavelengths. The partial least squares regression (PLSR) algorithm was employed to develop the regression models aimed at predicting the fat content in millet. The results showed that the proposed 1D-IRIV-PLSR model achieved optimal accuracy for fat detection, with a correlation coefficient for prediction (Rp) of 0.953, a root mean square error for prediction (RMSEP) of 0.301 g/100 g, and a residual predictive deviation (RPD) of 3.225, by using only 18 characteristic wavelengths. This result highlights the feasibility of using this low-cost and high-portability assessment tool for millet quality testing, which provides an optional solution for in situ inspection of millet quality in different scenarios, such as production lines or sales stores.

Abstract
This review summarises miniaturised technologies, commercially available devices, and device applications for food authentication or measurement of features that could potentially be used for authentication. We first focus on the handheld technologies and their generic characteristics: (1) technology types available, (2) their design and mode of operation, and (3) data handling and output systems. Subsequently, applications are reviewed according to commodity type for products of animal and plant origin. The 150 applications of commercial, handheld devices involve a large variety of technologies, such as various types of spectroscopy, imaging, and sensor arrays. The majority of applications, ~60%, aim at food products of plant origin. The technologies are not specifically aimed at certain commodities or product features, and no single technology can be applied for authentication of all commodities. Nevertheless, many useful applications have been developed for many food commodities. However, the use of these applications in practice is still in its infancy. This is largely because for each single application, new spectral databases need to be built and maintained. Therefore, apart from developing applications, a focus on sharing and re-use of data and calibration transfers is pivotal to remove this bottleneck and to increase the implementation of these technologies in practice.

Abstract
Food safety is one of the main challenges of the agri-food industry that is expected to be addressed in the current environment of tremendous technological progress, where consumers' lifestyles and preferences are in a constant state of flux. Food chain transparency and trust are drivers for food integrity control and for improvements in efficiency and economic growth. Similarly, the circular economy has great potential to reduce wastage and improve the efficiency of operations in multi-stakeholder ecosystems. Throughout the food chain cycle, all food commodities are exposed to multiple hazards, resulting in a high likelihood of contamination. Such biological or chemical hazards may be naturally present at any stage of food production, whether accidentally introduced or fraudulently imposed, risking consumers' health and their faith in the food industry. Nowadays, a massive amount of data is generated, not only from the next generation of food safety monitoring systems and along the entire food chain (primary production included) but also from the Internet of things, media, and other devices. These data should be used for the benefit of society, and the scientific field of data science should be a vital player in helping to make this possible.

Abstract
The performance of three near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instruments was compared through the investigation of coriander seed authenticity. The Thermo Fisher iS50 NIRS benchtop instrument, the portable Ocean Insights Flame-NIR and the Consumer Physics handheld SCiO device were assessed in conjunction with chemometric modelling in order to determine their predictive capabilities and use as quantitative tools through regression analysis. Two hundred authentic coriander seed samples and ninety adulterated samples were analysed on each device. Prediction models were developed and validated using SIMCA 15 chemometric software. All instruments correctly predicted 100% of the adulterated samples. The best models resulted in correct predictions of 100%, 98.5% and 95.6% for authentic coriander samples using spectra from the iS50, Flame-NIR and SCiO, respectively. The development of regression models highlighted the limitations of the Flame-NIR and SCiO for quantitative analysis, compared to the iS50. However, the results indicate their use as screening tools for on-site analysis of food, at various stages of the food supply chain.

Abstract
Green tea adulterated with sugar and glutinous rice flour has an increased sensitivity to water, which affects the safety of the tea. A total of 475 samples of pure tea, sugar-adulterated tea, and glutinous-rice-flour-adulterated tea were prepared and scanned using micro near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The collected NIRS data were qualitatively and quantitatively detected by a multi-layer algorithm model. Principal component analysis indicated that the three sample groups had an obvious separation trend. The discriminate rate of the optimal qualitative model, namely support vector machine, was 97.47% for the prediction set. A total of three wavelength selection methods were used to improve the performances of partial least squares regression and support vector machine regression (SVR) models. The nonlinear SVR models based on characteristic wavelengths selected by iteratively retaining informative variables algorithm provided satisfactory results for the identification of sugar and glutinous rice flour adulteration. The correlation coefficients for prediction (Rp) were >0.94, and the residual prediction deviation were >3. The results indicated that smartphone-based micro NIRS can be effectively used to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze adulterants in green tea.

Abstract
Tea quality is generally assessed through panel sensory evaluation, which requires elaborate sample preparation steps. Here, a novel and low-cost evaluation method of using smartphone imaging coupled with micro-near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer based on digital light processing is proposed to classify the quality grades of Keemun black tea. RGB color information was obtained by Image J software, eight texture characteristics, including scheme, contrast, dissimilarity, entropy, correlation, second moment and variance, and homogeneity were obtained by ENVI software based on co - occurrence method from smartphone images, and spectral data were preprocessed with standard normal variate. A principal component analysis (PCA)-support vector machine (SVM) model was established to analyze the color, texture, and spectral data. Low-level and middle-level fusion strategies were introduced for analyzing the fusion data. The results indicated that the accuracy of the SVM model on mid-level data fusion (100.00%, 94.29% for calibration set and prediction set, respectively) was higher than that obtained for separate color (97.14%, 88.57%), texture (84.29%, 60%), spectrum (74.29%, 68.57%) evaluation, or low-level data fusion (88.57%, 82.86%). The best SVM model yielded satisfactory performance with 94.29% accuracy for the prediction sets. These results suggested that smartphone imaging coupled with micro-NIR spectroscopy is an effective and low-cost tool for evaluating tea quality.

Abstract
The cell phone has been merely used for image acquisition and transmission in the last decades. Owing to the recent technological progress, its new generation, i.e., the smartphone, draws remarkable attention to food quality assessment with versatile applications. Smartphones possess high-resolution cameras, enabling them to be used instead of digital cameras in the computer vision system. Furthermore, their programmability and portability have recently encouraged researchers to introduce smartphone-based image processing in food analytical studies. This promising approach has advantages such as high sensing capability, being user friendly, and cost-effective over the conventional method, and therefore might be considered an emerging nondestructive technique for quality control purposes. However, there is a great effort to tackle implementation, calibration, as well as industrialization issues. In this context, this review aims to highlight the most recent studies of smartphone-based imaging systems in various food systems such as dairy, meat, fruit, and vegetables. Besides, the existing challenges and future trends for applying smartphones in food quality control are discussed. Although moving the computer vision systems toward a portable tool like a smartphone improves its versatility, more research works are needed to resolve its set-up weakness and limitations.

Abstract
Rapid and low-cost testing tools provide new methods for the evaluation of tea quality. In this study, a micro near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer was used for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of tea. A total of 360 tea samples consisting of black, green, yellow, and oolong tea were collected from different countries. Chemometrics including linear partial least squares (PLS) regression, PLS discriminant analysis, and nonlinear radial basis function-support vector machine (RBF-SVM) were used. The RBF-SVM model achieved optimal discriminant performance for tea types with a correct classification rate of 98.33%. Wavelength selection of iteratively variable subset optimization (IVSO) exhibited considerable advantages in improving the predictive performance of catechin, caffeine, and theanine models. The IVSO-PLS regression models achieved satisfactory results for catechins and caffeine prediction, with Rp over 0.9, and RPD over 2.5. Thus, the study provided a portable and low-cost method for in-situ assessing tea quality.

Abstract
Quality checks, assessments, and the assurance of food products, raw materials, and food ingredients is critically important to ensure the safeguard of foods of high quality for safety and public health. Nevertheless, quality checks, assessments, and the assurance of food products along distribution and supply chains is impacted by various challenges. For instance, the development of portable, sensitive, low-cost, and robust instrumentation that is capable of real-time, accurate, and sensitive analysis, quality checks, assessments, and the assurance of food products in the field and/or in the production line in a food manufacturing industry is a major technological and analytical challenge. Other significant challenges include analytical method development, method validation strategies, and the non-availability of reference materials and/or standards for emerging food contaminants. The simplicity, portability, non-invasive, non-destructive properties, and low-cost of NIR spectrometers, make them appealing and desirable instruments of choice for rapid quality checks, assessments and assurances of food products, raw materials, and ingredients. This review article surveys literature and examines current challenges and breakthroughs in quality checks and the assessment of a variety of food products, raw materials, and ingredients. Specifically, recent technological innovations and notable advances in quartz crystal microbalances (QCM), electroanalytical techniques, and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic instrument development in the quality assessment of selected food products, and the analysis of food raw materials and ingredients for foodborne pathogen detection between January 2019 and July 2020 are highlighted. In addition, chemometric approaches and multivariate analyses of spectral data for NIR instrumental calibration and sample analyses for quality assessments and assurances of selected food products and electrochemical methods for foodborne pathogen detection are discussed. Moreover, this review provides insight into the future trajectory of innovative technological developments in QCM, electroanalytical techniques, NIR spectroscopy, and multivariate analyses relating to general applications for the quality assessment of food products.

Abstract
Licorice is known as a botanical source in medicine and a sweetening agent in food products. Commercial licorice is from the source of wild and cultivated G. uralensis. It was recognized that the material basis of wild and cultivated licorice is different. This study systematically investigated the difference between them by multidimensional analysis technology. The results showed that the content of starch grain, total dietary fibre (TDF), and 11 secondary metabolite components was significantly different in wild and cultivated licorice. principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least square (OPLS-DA) analyses showed that the wild and cultivated licorice samples could be clearly separated based on the acquired data of microscopic, macromolecular substance and secondary metabolite analysis. The main markers were starch grain, isoliquiritin apioside, liquirtin apioside and TDF. Additionally, NIR spectroscpy combined with PLS-DA has demonstrated a suitable, fast and nondestructive methodology for authentication of wild and cultivated licorice.

Abstract
Simple Summary The pet food industry is interested in performing fast analyses to control the nutritional quality of their products. Despite having some limitations related to the need to modify the production process or to have a laboratory to prepare the samples for analysis through desktop instruments, near-infrared spectroscopy is one of the most used technologies for inexpensive analysis of foodstuffs. Thus, the miniaturization of infrared devices allows a wider industrial applicability of this technique. Information on the use of miniaturized infrared tools in the pet food sector is currently very limited, and the present research is the first attempt to predict the total and gelatinized starch, insoluble fibrous fractions, and mineral content of ground and intact dry pet food using the handheld NIR scanner SCiO™. Results from the current study revealed no significant differences in the predictive ability of the instrument using both ground and intact samples. The instrument offers a potential for screening purposes of both total and gelatinized starch, revealing the potential to monitor their content and ratio in commercial dog food on a large scale. Improvements such as widening the wavelength range is expected to increase prediction models’ accuracy. Abstract The aim of the present study was to investigate the ability of a handheld near-infrared spectrometer to predict total and gelatinized starch, insoluble fibrous fractions, and mineral content in extruded dry dog food. Intact and ground samples were compared to determine if the homogenization could improve the prediction performance of the instrument. Reference analyses were performed on 81 samples for starch and 99 for neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL), and minerals, and reflectance infrared spectra (740 to 1070 nm) were recorded with a SCiO™ near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer. Prediction models were developed using modified partial least squares regression and both internal (leave-one-out cross-validation) and external validation. The best prediction models in cross-validation using ground samples were obtained for gelatinized starch (residual predictive deviation, RPD = 2.54) and total starch (RPD = 2.33), and S (RPD = 1.92), while the best using intact samples were obtained for gelatinized starch (RPD = 2.45), total starch (RPD = 2.08), and K (RPD = 1.98). Through external validation, the best statistics were obtained for gelatinized starch, with an RPD of 2.55 and 2.03 in ground and intact samples, respectively. Overall, there was no difference in prediction models accuracy using ground or intact samples. In conclusion, the miniaturized NIR instrument offers the potential for screening purposes only for total and gelatinized starch, S, and K, whereas the results do not support its applicability for the other traits.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2020; 237:118403. [PMID: 32361319 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2020.118403] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2020] [Revised: 04/10/2020] [Accepted: 04/20/2020] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is an effective tool for analyzing components relevant to tea quality, especially catechins and caffeine. In this study, we predicted catechins and caffeine content in green and black tea, the main consumed tea types worldwide, by using a micro-NIR spectrometer connected to a smartphone. Local models were established separately for green and black tea samples, and these samples were combined to create global models. Different spectral preprocessing methods were combined with linear partial-least squares regression and nonlinear support vector machine regression (SVR) to obtain accurate models. Standard normal variate (SNV)-based SNV-SVR models exhibited accurate predictive performance for both catechins and caffeine. For the prediction of quality components of tea, the global models obtained results comparable to those of the local models. The optimal global models for catechins and caffeine were SNV-SVR and particle swarm optimization (PSO)-simplified SNV-PSO-SVR, which achieved the best predictive performance with correlation coefficients in prediction (Rp) of 0.98 and 0.93, root mean square errors in prediction of 9.83 and 2.71, and residual predictive deviations of 4.44 and 2.60, respectively. Therefore, the proposed low-price, compact, and portable micro-NIR spectrometer connected to smartphones is an effective tool for analyzing tea quality.

Abstract
In this review, we summarize the most recent advances in monitoring changes induced in fish and other seafood, and meat and meat products, following the application of traditional processing processes by means of conventional and emerging advanced techniques. Selected examples from the literature covering relevant applications of spectroscopic methods (i.e., visible and near infrared (VIS/NIR), mid-infrared (MIR), Raman, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and fluorescence) will be used to illustrate the topics covered in this review. Although a general reluctance toward using and adopting new technologies in traditional production sectors causes a relatively low interest in spectroscopic techniques, the recently published studies have pointed out that these techniques could be a powerful tool for the non-destructive monitoring and process optimization during the production of muscle food products.

Abstract
Adulteration of meat and meat products causes concerns to consumers. It is necessary to develop novel robust and sensitive methods that can authenticate the origin of meat by qualitative and quantitative means to minimize the drawbacks of the existing methods. This study has shown that the protein N-glycosylation profiles of different meats are species specific and thus can be used for meat authentication. Based on the N-glycan pattern, the investigated five meat species (beef, chicken, pork, duck, and mutton) can be distinguished by principal component analysis, and partial least square regression was performed to build a calibration and validation model for the prediction of adulteration ratio. Using this method, beef samples adulterated with a lower-value duck meat could be detected down to the addition ratio as low as 2.2%. The most distinguishing N-glycans from beef and duck were elucidated for the detailed structures.
