Non-destructive quantification of key quality characteristics in individual grapevine berries using near-infrared spectroscopy. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2024; 15:1386951.

Abstract
It is crucial for winegrowers to make informed decisions about the optimum time to harvest the grapes to ensure the production of premium wines. Global warming contributes to decreasing acidity and increasing sugar levels in grapes, resulting in bland wines with high contents of alcohol. Predicting quality in viticulture is thus pivotal. To assess the average ripeness, typically a sample of one hundred berries representative for the entire vineyard is collected. However, this process, along with the subsequent detailed must analysis, is time consuming and expensive. This study focusses on predicting essential quality parameters like sugar and acid content in Vitis vinifera (L.) varieties 'Chardonnay', 'Riesling', 'Dornfelder', and 'Pinot Noir'. A small near-infrared spectrometer was used measuring non-destructively in the wavelength range from 1 100 nm to 1 350 nm while the reference contents were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. Chemometric models were developed employing partial least squares regression and using spectra of all four grapevine varieties, spectra gained from berries of the same colour, or from the individual varieties. The models exhibited high accuracy in predicting main quality-determining parameters in independent test sets. On average, the model regression coefficients exceeded 93% for the sugars fructose and glucose, 86% for malic acid, and 73% for tartaric acid. Using these models, prediction accuracies revealed the ability to forecast individual sugar contents within an range of ± 6.97 g/L to ± 10.08 g/L, and malic acid within ± 2.01 g/L to ± 3.69 g/L. This approach indicates the potential to develop robust models by incorporating spectra from diverse grape varieties and berries of different colours. Such insight is crucial for the potential widespread adoption of a handheld near-infrared sensor, possibly integrated into devices used in everyday life, like smartphones. A server-side and cloud-based solution for pre-processing and modelling could thus avoid pitfalls of using near-infrared sensors on unknown varieties and in diverse wine-producing regions.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 322:124716.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of a handheld near-infrared device (900-1600 nm) to predict fertility and sex (male and female) traits in-ovo. The NIR reflectance spectra of the egg samples were collected on days 0, 7, 14 and 18 of incubation and the data was analysed using principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and support vector machines classification (SVM). The overall classification rates for the prediction of fertile and infertile egg samples ranged from 73 % to 84 % and between 93 % to 95 % using LDA and SVM classification, respectively. The highest classification rate was obtained on day 7 of incubation. The classification between male and female embryos achieved lower classification rates, between 62 % and 68 % using LDA and SVM classification, respectively. Although the classification rates for in-ovo sexing obtained in this study are higher than those obtained by chance (50 %), the classification results are currently not sufficient for industrial in-ovo sexing of chicken eggs. These results demonstrated that short wavelengths in the NIR range may be useful to distinguish between fertile and infertile egg samples at days 7 and 14 during incubation.

Abstract
Natural toxins (NTs) are poisonous secondary metabolites produced by living organisms developed to ward off predators. Especially low molecular weight NTs (MW<∼1 kDa), such as mycotoxins, phycotoxins, and plant toxins, are considered an important and growing food safety concern. Therefore, accurate risk assessment of food and feed for the presence of NTs is crucial. Currently, the analysis of NTs is predominantly performed with targeted high pressure liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) methods. Although these methods are highly sensitive and accurate, they are relatively expensive and time-consuming, while unknown or unexpected NTs will be missed. To overcome this, novel on-site screening methods and non-targeted HPLC high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) methods have been developed. On-site screening methods can give non-specialists the possibility for broad "scanning" of potential geographical regions of interest, while also providing sensitive and specific analysis at the point-of-need. Non-targeted chromatography-HRMS methods can detect unexpected as well as unknown NTs and their metabolites in a lab-based approach. The aim of this chapter is to provide an insight in the recent advances, challenges, and perspectives in the field of NTs analysis both from the on-site and the laboratory perspective.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of a portable near infrared (NIR) instrument to monitor the shelf-life of four goat muscles [longissimus thoracis et lumborum (LTL), semimembranosus (SM), semitendinosus (ST) and biceps femoris (BF)] stored for up to 8 days (4 °C). The NIR spectra of the muscle samples were collected at day 0, and after 1, 4 and 8 days of storage using a MicroNIR instrument (900-1600 nm). The coefficient of determination in cross-validation (R2) and the standard error in cross validation (SECV) obtained for the prediction of days of storage ranged between 0.76 and 0.86, where the SECV ranged from 0.32 to 0.41. The best statistics in cross-validation were obtained for the prediction of days of storage in the BF samples, followed by the ST and LTL muscles. Differences in the PLS loadings for the cross-validation models were observed due to the interactions between the different muscle samples and days of storage. Overall, these results showed the potential of NIR spectroscopy to identify the time of storage in four different goat muscles. Similar data and techniques could be used to predict the remaining shelf life of meat derived from different species under storage. This information can then be used as a tool to predict and guarantee the safety of meat samples to the consumer along the meat supply and value chains.

Abstract
The productivity of plants is considerably affected by various environmental stresses. Exploring the specific pattern of the near-infrared spectral data acquired non-destructively from plants subjected to stress can contribute to a better understanding of biophysical and biochemical processes in plants. Experiments for investigating NIR spectra of maize plants subjected to water stress were conducted. Two maize lines were used: US corn-belt inbred line B37 and mutant inbred XM 87-136, characterized by very high drought tolerance. After reaching the 4-leaf stage, 10 plants from each line were subjected to water stress, and 10 plants were used as control, kept under a regular water regime. The drought lasted until day 17 and then the plants were recovered by watering for 4 days. A MicroNIR OnSite-W Spectrometer (VIAVI Solutions Inc., Chandler, AZ, USA) was used for in vivo measurement of each maize leaf spectra. PLS models for determining drought days were created and aquagrams were calculated separately for the plants' second, third, and fourth leaves. Differences in absorption spectra were observed between control, stressed, and recovered maize plants, as well as between different measurement days of stressed plants. Aquagrams were used to visualize the water spectral pattern in maize leaves and how it changes along the drought process.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been renewed interest in the maintenance of food quality and food safety on the basis of metabolomic fingerprinting using vibrational spectroscopy combined with multivariate chemometrics. Nontargeted spectroscopy techniques such as FTIR, NIR and Raman can provide fingerprint information for metabolomic constituents in agricultural products, natural products and foods in a high-throughput, cost-effective and rapid way. In the current review, we tried to explain the capabilities of FTIR, NIR and Raman spectroscopy techniques combined with multivariate analysis for metabolic fingerprinting and profiling. Previous contributions highlighted the considerable potential of these analytical techniques for the detection and quantification of key constituents, such as aromatic amino acids, peptides, aromatic acids, carotenoids, alcohols, terpenoids and flavonoids in the food matrices. Additionally, promising results were obtained for the identification and characterization of different microorganism species such as fungus, bacterial strains and yeasts using these techniques combined with supervised and unsupervised pattern recognition techniques. In conclusion, this review summarized the cutting-edge applications of FTIR, NIR and Raman spectroscopy techniques equipped with multivariate statistics for food analysis and foodomics in the context of metabolomic fingerprinting and profiling.

The Application of Handheld Near-Infrared Spectroscopy and Raman Spectroscopic Imaging for the Identification and Quality Control of Food Products. Molecules 2023; 28:7891.

Abstract
The following investigations describe the potential of handheld NIR spectroscopy and Raman imaging measurements for the identification and authentication of food products. On the one hand, during the last decade, handheld NIR spectroscopy has made the greatest progress among vibrational spectroscopic methods in terms of miniaturization and price/performance ratio, and on the other hand, the Raman spectroscopic imaging method can achieve the best lateral resolution when examining the heterogeneous composition of samples. The utilization of both methods is further enhanced via the combination with chemometric evaluation methods with respect to the detection, identification, and discrimination of illegal counterfeiting of food products. To demonstrate the solution to practical problems with these two spectroscopic techniques, the results of our recent investigations obtained for various industrial processes and customer-relevant product examples have been discussed in this article. Specifically, the monitoring of food extraction processes (e.g., ethanol extraction of clove and water extraction of wolfberry) and the identification of food quality (e.g., differentiation of cocoa nibs and cocoa beans) via handheld NIR spectroscopy, and the detection and quantification of adulterations in powdered dairy products via Raman imaging were outlined in some detail. Although the present work only demonstrates exemplary product and process examples, the applications provide a balanced overview of materials with different physical properties and manufacturing processes in order to be able to derive modified applications for other products or production processes.

Abstract
Soil properties influence greatly the status of vine plants which consequently influences the quality of wine. Therefore, in the context of viticulture management, it is extremely important to assess the physical and chemical parameters of vineyards soils. In this study, the soils of two vineyards were analysed by near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and established analytical reference procedures. The main objective of this study was to verify if NIR spectroscopy is a potential tool to discriminate the soils of both vineyards as well as to quantify differences of soil's parameters. For that, a total of eight sampling spots were selected at each vineyard taking into consideration the soil type and sampled at different depths. The data analysis was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and partial least squares (PLS) regression. The ANOVA results revealed that 12 out of the 18 parameters analysed through the reference procedures can be considered statistically different (p < 0.05). Regarding PCA, the obtained results revealed a clear separation between the scores of both vineyards either considering NIR spectra or the chemical parameters. The PLS-DA model was able to obtain 100 % of correct predictions for the discrimination of both vineyards. PLS regression analysis using NIR spectra revealed R2P and RER values higher than 0.85 and 10, respectively, for 8 (pH (H2O), N, Ca2+, Mg2+, SB, CEC, ECEC and GSB) of the 18 chemical parameters evaluated. Concluding, these results demonstrate that it is possible to discriminate the soils of the different vineyards through NIR spectroscopy as well as to quantify several chemical parameters through soils NIR spectra in a rapid, accurate, cost-effective, simple and environmentally friendly way when compared to the reference procedures.

Abstract
Miniaturized, energy-efficient and application-specific spectral sensing systems promise to be a highly sought-after technology in the coming years, with potential applications in areas such as: distributed sensor systems, IoT devices, mobile autonomous platforms, and many others. We present in this work the design, construction and measurement results of a compact, mid-infrared spectrometer working in the 3 - 4 µm spectral region, attractive for applications requiring the identification of polymer materials. The spectrometer is based on linear-variable filters (LVF) combined with an uncooled HgCdTe linear-detector array (LDA). The design and architecture of the device is described and discussed in the context of miniaturization challenges and constraints. Measured spectra of thin polyimide and polystyrene foils are presented to prove the applicability of the developed device to polymer materials detection and identification.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of a droplet collar accessory attached to a portable near-infrared (NIR) instrument to characterize the artificial contamination of methanol in commercial whisky samples. Unadulterated samples (n = 12) were purchased from local bottle shops where adulterated samples were created by adding methanol (99% pure methanol) at six levels (0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% and 5% v/v) to the commercial whisky samples (controls). Samples were analyzed using a drop collar accessory attached to a MicroNIR Onsite instrument (900-1650 nm). Partial least squares (PLS) cross-validation statistics obtained for the prediction of all levels of methanol (from 0 to 5%) addition were considered adequate when the whole adulteration range was used, coefficient of determination in cross-validation (R2cv: 0.95) and standard error in cross of validation (SECV: 0.35% v/v). The cross-validation statistics were R2cv: 0.97, SECV: 0.28% v/v after the 0.5% and 1% v/v methanol addition was removed. These results showed the ability of using a new sample presentation attachment to a portable NIR instrument to analyze the adulteration of whisky with methanol. However, the low levels of methanol adulteration (0.5 and 1%) were not well predicted using the NIR method evaluated.

Abstract
The flour milling industry-a vital component of global food production-is undergoing a transformative phase driven by the integration of smart devices and advanced technologies. This transition promises improved efficiency, quality and sustainability in flour production. The accurate estimation of protein, moisture and ash content in wheat grains and flour is of paramount importance due to their direct impact on product quality and compliance with industry standards. This paper explores the application of Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy as a non-destructive, efficient and cost-effective method for measuring the aforementioned essential parameters in wheat and flour by investigating the effectiveness of a low-cost handle NIR spectrometer. Furthermore, a novel approach using Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) is proposed to estimate the protein, moisture and ash content in grain seeds and flour, marking the first known application of FCMs in this context. Our study includes an experimental setup that assesses different types of wheat seeds and flour samples and evaluates three NIR pre-processing techniques to enhance the parameter estimation accuracy. The results indicate that low-cost NIR equipment can contribute to the estimation of the studied parameters.

PLANT-ENVIRONMENT INTERACTIONS (HOBOKEN, N.J.) 2023; 4:258-274. [PMID: 37822731 PMCID: PMC10564378 DOI: 10.1002/pei3.10116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Revised: 05/24/2023] [Accepted: 05/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
Cannabis sativa L. is a versatile crop attracting increasing attention for food, fiber, and medical uses. As a dioecious species, males and females are visually indistinguishable during early growth. For seed or cannabinoid production, a higher number of female plants is economically advantageous. Currently, sex determination is labor-intensive and costly. Instead, we used rapid and non-destructive hyperspectral measurement, an emerging means of assessing plant physiological status, to reliably differentiate males and females. One industrial hemp (low tetrahydrocannabinol [THC]) cultivar was pre-grown in trays before transfer to the field in control soil. Reflectance spectra were acquired from leaves during flowering and machine learning algorithms applied allowed sex classification, which was best using a radial basis function (RBF) network. Eight industrial hemp (low THC) cultivars were field grown on fertilized and control soil. Reflectance spectra were acquired from leaves at early development when the plants of all cultivars had developed between four and six leaf pairs and in three cases only flower buds were visible (start of flowering). Machine learning algorithms were applied, allowing sex classification, differentiation of cultivars and fertilizer regime, again with best results for RBF networks. Differentiating nutrient status and varietal identity is feasible with high prediction accuracy. Sex classification was error-free at flowering but less accurate (between 60% and 87%) when using spectra from leaves at early growth stages. This was influenced by both cultivar and soil conditions, reflecting developmental differences between cultivars related to nutritional status. Hyperspectral measurement combined with machine learning algorithms is valuable for non-invasive assessment of C. sativa cultivar and sex. This approach can potentially improve regulatory security and productivity of cannabis farming.

Abstract
This paper presents a monolithic spectrometer based on a plano-convex glass lens and achieves a resolution better than 0.7 nm in the spectral range of 550-720 nm. In the monolithic instrument, all components were fixed in the machined lens, resulting in a much smaller size and more stable assembly than traditional mini spectrometers. Additionally, a dual-band design was proposed and demonstrated to extend the spectral range from the visible band (550-700 nm) to the near-infrared band (800-900 nm), thus allowing more characteristic spectral fingerprints for improved material identification. The feasibility of compensating the residual aberrations caused by structural limitations with a specifically designed aberration-correcting grating is further detailed.

Abstract
We present a Silicon-based Charge-Coupled Device (Si-CCD) sensor applied as a cost-effective spectrometer for femtosecond pulse characterization in the Near Infrared region in two different configurations: two-Fourier and Czerny-Turner setups. To test the spectrometer's performance, a femtosecond Optical Parametric Oscillator with a tuning range between 1100 and 1700 nm and a femtosecond Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier at 1582 nm were employed. The nonlinear spectrometer operation is based on the Two-Photon Absorption effect generated in the Si-CCD sensor. The achieved spectrometer resolution was 0.6 ± 0.1 nm with a threshold peak intensity of 2×106Wcm2. An analysis of the nonlinear response as a function of the wavelength, the response saturation, and the criteria to prevent it are also presented.

SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 298:122807. [PMID: 37148660 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2023.122807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/08/2023]
Abstract
The fermented and dried cocoa beans are peeled, either before or after the roasting process, as peeled nibs are used for chocolate production, and shell content in cocoa powders may result from economically motivated adulteration (EMA), cross-contamination or misfits in equipment in the peeling process. The performance of this process is carefully evaluated, as values above 5% (w/w) of cocoa shell can directly affect the sensory quality of cocoa products. In this study chemometric methods were applied to near-infrared (NIR) spectra from a handheld (900-1700 nm) and a benchtop (400-1700 nm) spectrometers to predict cocoa shell content in cocoa powders. A total of 132 binary mixtures of cocoa powders with cocoa shell were prepared at several proportions (0 to 10% w/w). Partial least squares regression (PLSR) was used to develop the calibration models and different spectral preprocessing were investigated to improve the predictive performance of the models. The ensemble Monte Carlo variable selection (EMCVS) method was used to select the most informative spectral variables. Based on the results obtained with both benchtop (R2P = 0.939, RMSEP = 0.687% and RPDP = 4.14) and handheld (R2P = 0.876, RMSEP = 1.04% and RPDP = 2.82) spectrometers, NIR spectroscopy combined with the EMCVS method proved to be a highly accurate and reliable tool for predicting cocoa shell in cocoa powder. Even with a lower predictive performance than the benchtop spectrometer, the handheld spectrometer has potential to specify whether the amount of cocoa shell present in cocoa powders is in accordance with the Codex Alimentarius specifications.

Abstract
Today, one of the world's biggest problems is the assurance of food integrity from farm to fork. Economically motivated food adulteration and food authenticity problems are increasing daily with considerable health and economic effects. Early detection and prevention of food integrity-related problems could be provided by the application of effective on-site food analysis technologies. FTIR spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics can be used for the rapid quality control of a wide variety of food products with fast, high-throughput, accurate and nondestructive analysis advantages. In particular, hand-held and portable FTIR instruments have the potential to surveil food quality and food safety in various critical segments of the food supply chain. In this review, we explore the abilities of hand-held and portable FTIR spectrometers combined with multivariate statistics to conduct a quality evaluation of various food products in terms of food adulteration and authenticity issues. An examination of the literature showed that comparable results were obtained based on detection limits, correlation coefficient (R2) values, standard error values and discrimination power by using both portable/hand-held FTIR spectrometers and benchtop FTIR spectrometers. In conclusion, this review highlights the potential usefulness of portable and hand-held FTIR spectrometers combined with chemometrics for maintaining the food quality through the presentation of various applications that may shed light for on-site food control at any point of the food supply chain.

Abstract
Robusta Amazônico is the name given to the Amazonian coffee that has been becoming popular and has recently been registered as a geographical indication in Brazil. It is produced by indigenous and non-indigenous coffee producers in regions that are geographically very close to one another. There is a need to authenticate whether coffee is truly produced by indigenous people and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is an excellent technique for this. To meet the substantial trend towards NIR spectroscopy miniaturization, this work compared benchtop and portable NIR instruments to discriminate Robusta Amazônico samples using partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). To ensure the results to be fairly comparable and, at the same time, to guarantee representative selection of both training and test set for the discriminant analysis, a sample selection strategy based on coupling ComDim multi-block analysis and the duplex algorithm was applied. Different pre-processing techniques were tested to create multiple matrices to be used in ComDim, as well as to build the discriminant models. The best PLS-DA model for benchtop NIR provided an accuracy of 96% for the test samples, while for the portable NIR the correct classification rate was 92%. It was demonstrated that portable NIR provides similar results to benchtop NIR for coffee origin classification by performing an unbiased sample selection strategy.

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
Internal and external defects of eggs should be detected to prevent
cross-contamination of intact eggs by abnormal eggs during storage. Emerging
detection technologies for abnormal eggs were introduced as an alternative to
human inspection. The advanced technologies could rapidly detect abnormal eggs.
Abnormal egg detection technologies using acoustic response, machine vision, and
spectroscopy have been commercialized in the poultry industry. Non-destructive
egg quality assessment methods meanwhile could preserve the value of eggs and
improve detection efficiency. In order to improve detection efficiency, it is
essential to select a proper algorithm for classifying the types of abnormal
eggs. This review deals with the performance of the detection technologies for
various types of abnormal eggs in recently published resources. In addition, the
discriminant methods and detection algorithms of abnormal eggs reported in the
published literature were investigated. Although the majority of the studies
were conducted on a laboratory scale, the developed detection technologies for
internal and external defects in eggs were technically feasible to obtain the
excellent detection accuracy. To apply the developed detection technologies to
the poultry industry, it is necessary to achieve the detection rates required
from the industry.

Abstract
The ongoing miniaturization of spectrometers creates a perfect synergy with the common advantages of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, which together provide particularly significant benefits in the field of food analysis. The combination of portability and direct onsite application with high throughput and a noninvasive way of analysis is a decisive advantage in the food industry, which features a diverse production and supply chain. A miniaturized NIR analytical framework is readily applicable to combat various food safety risks, where compromised quality may result from an accidental or intentional (i.e., food fraud) origin. In this review, the characteristics of miniaturized NIR sensors are discussed in comparison to benchtop laboratory spectrometers regarding their performance, applicability, and optimization of methodology. Miniaturized NIR spectrometers remarkably increase the flexibility of analysis; however, various factors affect the performance of these devices in different analytical scenarios. Currently, it is a focused research direction to perform systematic evaluation studies of the accuracy and reliability of various miniaturized spectrometers that are based on different technologies; e.g., Fourier transform (FT)-NIR, micro-optoelectro-mechanical system (MOEMS)-based Hadamard mask, or linear variable filter (LVF) coupled with an array detector, among others. Progressing technology has been accompanied by innovative data-analysis methods integrated into the package of a micro-NIR analytical framework to improve its accuracy, reliability, and applicability. Advanced calibration methods (e.g., artificial neural networks (ANN) and nonlinear regression) directly improve the performance of miniaturized instruments in challenging analyses, and balance the accuracy of these instruments toward laboratory spectrometers. The quantum-mechanical simulation of NIR spectra reveals the wavenumber regions where the best-correlated spectral information resides and unveils the interactions of the target analyte with the surrounding matrix, ultimately enhancing the information gathered from the NIR spectra. A data-fusion framework offers a combination of spectral information from sensors that operate in different wavelength regions and enables parallelization of spectral pretreatments. This set of methods enables the intelligent design of future NIR analyses using miniaturized instruments, which is critically important for samples with a complex matrix typical of food raw material and shelf products.

Abstract
Achieving global goals for sustainable nutrition, health, and wellbeing will depend on delivering enhanced diets to humankind. This will require instantaneous access to information on food-source quality at key points of agri-food systems. Although laboratory analysis and benchtop NIR spectrometers are regularly used to quantify grain quality, these do not suit all end users, for example, stakeholders in decentralized agri-food chains that are typical in emerging economies. Therefore, we explored benchtop and portable NIR instruments, and the methods that might aid these particular end uses. For this purpose, we generated NIR spectra for 328 grain samples from multiple cereals (finger millet, foxtail millet, maize, pearl millet, and sorghum) with a standard benchtop NIR spectrometer (DS2500, FOSS) and a novel portable NIR-based instrument (HL-EVT5, Hone). We explored classical deterministic methods (via winISI, FOSS), novel machine learning (ML)-driven methods (via Hone Create, Hone), and a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based method for building the calibrations to predict grain protein out of the NIR spectra. All of the tested methods enabled us to build relevant calibrations out of both types of spectra (i.e., R2 ≥ 0.90, RMSE ≤ 0.91, RPD ≥ 3.08). Generally, the calibration methods integrating the ML techniques tended to enhance the prediction capacity of the model. We also documented that the prediction of grain protein content based on the NIR spectra generated using the novel portable instrument (HL-EVT5, Hone) was highly relevant for quantitative protein predictions (R2 = 0.91, RMSE = 0.97, RPD = 3.48). Thus, the presented findings lay the foundations for the expanded use of NIR spectroscopy in agricultural research, development, and trade.

Abstract
A near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer can perceive the change in characteristics of the grain reflectance spectrum quickly and nondestructively, which can be used to determine grain quality information. The full-band spectral information of samples of multiple physical states can be measured using existing instruments, yet it is difficult for the full-band instrument to be widely used in grain quality detection due to its high price, large size, non-portability, and inability to directly output the grain quality information. Because of the above problems, a phenotypic sensor about grain quality was developed for wheat, and four wavelengths were chosen. The interference of noise signals such as ambient light was eliminated by the phenotypic sensor using the modulated light signal and closed sample pool, the shape and size of the incident light spot of the light source were determined according to the requirement for collecting the reflectance spectrum of the grain, and the luminous units of the light source with stable light intensity and balanced luminescence were developed. Moreover, the sensor extracted the reflectance spectrum information using a weak optical signal conditioning circuit, which improved the resolution of the reflectance signal. A grain quality prediction model was created based on the actual moisture and protein content of grain obtained through Physico-chemical analyses. The calibration test showed that the R2 of the relative diffuse reflectance (RDR) of all four wavelengths of the phenotypic sensor and the reflectance of the diffusion fabrics were higher than 0.99. In the noise level and repeatability tests, the standard deviations of the RDR of two types of wheat measured by the sensor were much lower than 1.0%, indicating that the sensor could accurately collect the RDR of wheat. In the calibration test, the root mean square errors (RMSE) of protein and moisture content of wheat in the Test set were 0.4866 and 0.2161%, the mean absolute errors (MAEs) were 0.6515 and 0.3078%, respectively. The results showed that the NIR phenotypic sensor about grain quality developed in this study could be used to collect the diffuse reflectance of grains and the moisture and protein content in real-time.

Abstract
Automatic identification and sorting of livestock organs in the meat processing industry could reduce costs and improve efficiency. Two hyperspectral sensors encompassing the visible (400-900 nm) and short-wave infrared (900-1700 nm) spectra were used to identify the organs by type. A total of 104 parenchymatous organs of cattle and sheep (heart, kidney, liver, and lung) were scanned in a multi-sensory system that encompassed both sensors along a conveyor belt. Spectral data were obtained and averaged following manual markup of three to eight regions of interest of each organ. Two methods were evaluated to classify organs: partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and random forest (RF). In addition, classification models were obtained with the smoothed reflectance and absorbance and the first and second derivatives of the spectra to assess if one was superior to the rest. The in-sample accuracy for the visible, short-wave infrared, and combination of both sensors was higher for PLS-DA compared to RF. The accuracy of the classification models was not significantly different between data pre-processing methods or between visible and short-wave infrared sensors. Hyperspectral sensors, particularly those in the visible spectrum, seem promising to identify organs from slaughtered animals which could be useful for the automation of quality and process control in the food supply chain, such as in abattoirs.

Abstract
AbstractThe constant increase in the demand for safe and high-quality food has generated the need to develop efficient methods to evaluate food composition, vitamin C being one of the main quality indicators. However, its heterogeneity and susceptibility to degradation makes the analysis of vitamin C difficult by conventional techniques, but as a result of technological advances, vibrational spectroscopy techniques have been developed that are more efficient, economical, fast, and non-destructive. This review focuses on main findings on the evaluation of vitamin C in foods by using vibrational spectroscopic techniques. First, the fundamentals of ultraviolet–visible, infrared and Raman spectroscopy are detailed. Also, chemometric methods, whose use is essential for a correct processing and evaluation of the spectral information, are described. The use and importance of vibrational spectroscopy in the evaluation of vitamin C through qualitative characterization and quantitative analysis is reported. Finally, some limitations of the techniques and potential solutions are described, as well as future trends related to the utilization of vibrational spectroscopic techniques.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (pc-LEDs) are newly emergent broadband light sources for miniaturizing optical systems like spectrometers. However, traditional converters with NIR phosphors encapsulated by organic resins suffer from low external quantum efficiency (EQE), strong thermal quenching as well as low thermal conductivity, thus limiting the device efficiency and output power. Through pressureless crystallization from the designed aluminosilicate glasses, here broadband Near-infrared (NIR) emitting translucent ceramics are developed with high EQE (59.5%) and excellent thermal stability (<10% intensity loss and negligible variation of emission profile at 150 °C) to serve as all-inorganic visible-to-NIR converters. A high-performance NIR phosphor-converted light emitting diodes is further demonstrated with a record NIR photoelectric efficiency (output power) of 21.2% (62.6 mW) at 100 mA and a luminescence saturation threshold up to 184 W cm-2 . The results can substantially expand the applications of pc-LEDs, and may open up new opportunity to design efficient broadband emitting materials.

Abstract
During oncological surgery, it can be challenging to identify the tumor and establish adequate resection margins. This study proposes a new two-layer approach in which diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) is used to predict the top layer thickness and classify the layers in two-layered phantom and animal tissue. Using wavelet-based and peak-based DRS spectral features, the proposed method could predict the top layer thickness with an accuracy of up to 0.35 mm. In addition, the tissue types of the first and second layers were classified with an accuracy of 0.95 and 0.99. Distinguishing multiple tissue layers during spectral analyses results in a better understanding of more complex tissue structures encountered in surgical practice.

Abstract
Broadband shortwave infrared (SWIR) light-emitting diodes (LEDs), capable of advancing the next-generation solid-state smart invisible lighting technology, have sparked tremendous interest and will launch ground-breaking spectroscopy and instrumental applications. Nevertheless, the device performance is still suppressed by the low quantum efficiency and limited emission bandwidth of the critical phosphor layer. Herein, we report a high-performance Ni2+-doped garnet solid-solution broadband SWIR emitter centered at ∼1450 nm with a large full-width at half-maximum of ∼300 nm, thereby fabricating, for the first time, a directly excited Ni2+-doped garnet solid-solution phosphor-converted broadband SWIR LED device. A synergetic enhancement strategy, adding a fluxing agent and a charge compensator simultaneously, is proposed to deliver a more than 20-fold increase of the SWIR emission intensity and nearly 2-fold improvement of the thermal quenching behavior. The site occupation and mechanism behind the synergetic enhancement strategy are elucidated by a combination of experimental study and theoretical calculation. A prototype of the SWIR LED with a radiation flux of 1.25 mW is fabricated and utilized as an invisible SWIR light source to demonstrate the SWIR spectroscopy applications. This work not only opens a window to explore novel broadband SWIR phosphors but also provides a synergetic strategy to remarkably improve the performance of artificial SWIR LED light sources.

Abstract
This paper mainly focuses on the feasibility of rapidly identifying Fritillariae cirrhosae varieties, distinguishing its authenticity and detecting its components by using a portable near infrared (NIR) spectrometer. Five different varieties of Fritillariae cirrhosae, five common counterfeits and two main components (ethanol-soluble extractives and total alkaloids) were studied. The reference values of ethanol-soluble extractives were determined by hot dip method and the reference value of total alkaloid was determined by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-Vis). Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) algorithm was used to identify the sources of different varieties of Fritillariae cirrhosae and the common counterfeits of Fritillariae cirrhosae, respectively. As a result, the best models seemed to be effective, with accuracy of the two models' prediction sets reaches 83.33% and 90.91%, respectively. The partial least squares regression (PLSR) algorithm was used to relate the sample spectra with the reference values of ethanol-soluble extractives and total alkaloid content. Coefficient of determination of prediction (R2p) and root mean square errors of prediction (RMSEP) obtained were 0.8562 and 0.3911; 0.6917 and 0.0117, for ethanol-soluble extractives and total alkaloid content, respectively. The results showed that the portable NIR spectrometer could evaluate the quality of Fritillariae cirrhosae with high efficiency and practicability.

Abstract
Spectral imaging (SI) in analytical chemistry is widely used for the assessment of spatially distributed physicochemical properties of samples. Although massive development in instrument and chemometrics modelling has taken place in the recent years, the main challenge with SI is that available sensors require extensive system integration and calibration modelling before their use for routine analysis. Further, the models developed during one experiment are rarely useful once the system is reintegrated for a new experiment. To avoid system reintegration and reuse calibrated models, this study presents an intelligent All-In-One SI (ASI) laboratory system allowing standardised automated data acquisition and real-time spectral model deployment. The ASI system supplies a controlled standardised illumination environment, an in-built computing system, embedded software for automated image acquisition, and model deployment to predict the spatial distribution of sample properties in real-time. To show the capability of the ASI framework, exemplary cases of fruit property prediction in different fruits are presented. Furthermore, ASI is also benchmarked in performance against the current commercially available portable as well as high-end laboratory spectrometers.

Abstract
Substantial research has been carried out on rapid, nondestructive, and inexpensive techniques for predicting cheese composition using spectroscopy in the visible and near-infrared radiation range. Moreover, in recent years, new portable and handheld spectrometers have been used to predict chemical composition from spectra captured directly on the cheese surface in dairies, storage facilities, and food plants, removing the need to collect, transport, and process cheese samples. For this review, we selected 71 papers (mainly dealing with prediction of the chemical composition of cheese) and summarized their results, focusing our attention on the major sources of variation in prediction accuracy related to cheese variability, spectrometer and spectra characteristics, and chemometrics techniques. The average coefficient of determination obtained from the validation samples ranged from 86 to 90% for predicting the moisture, fat, and protein contents of cheese, but was lower for predicting NaCl content and cheese pH (79 and 56%, respectively). There was wide variability with respect to all traits in the results of the various studies (standard deviation: 9-30%). This review draws attention to the need for more robust equations for predicting cheese composition in different situations; the calibration data set should consist of representative cheese samples to avoid bias due to an overly specific field of application and ensure the results are not biased for a particular category of cheese. Different spectrometers have different accuracies, which do not seem to depend on the spectrum extension. Furthermore, specific areas of the spectrum-the visible, infrared-A, or infrared-B range-may yield similar results to broad-range spectra; this is because several signals related to cheese composition are distributed along the spectrum. Small, portable instruments have been shown to be viable alternatives to large bench-top instruments. Last, chemometrics (spectra pre-treatment and prediction models) play an important role, especially with regard to difficult-to-predict traits. A proper, fully independent, validation strategy is essential to avoid overoptimistic results.

Paiva EM, Ribessi RL, Rohwedder JJR. Near-infrared spectra of liquid and gas samples by diffuse reflectance employing benchtop and handheld spectrophotometers. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 264:120302. [PMID: 34461522 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2021.120302] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
This paper describes a new method to obtain NIR spectra of liquid and gas samples by diffuse reflectance, which is especially suitable for handheld spectrophotometers, since most of these instruments are designed to acquire spectrum using this geometry. The core of the method is a diffuse reflectance cell, which consists of a vial containing a mixture of the liquid or gas sample (rare medium) and a powder (dense medium). Using this strategy, no adaptation is required to measure spectra with most portable NIR spectrometers. This new method was used to obtain NIR spectra of several liquids and gases, which were compared with traditional transmittance spectra. As a proof of concept, measurements of biodiesel/vegetable oil/diesel blends were used to build multivariate calibrations to predict the contents of biodiesel and vegetable oil in diesel blends using benchtop and handheld FT-NIR spectrophotometers. This low-cost method was demonstrated to be suitable for overcoming problems related to the handling of viscous samples and expand the applications with portable NIR instruments.

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
Quality and safety monitoring in the dairy industry is required to ensure products meet a high-standard based on legislation and customer requirements. The need for non-destructive, low-cost and user-friendly process analytical technologies, targeted at operators (as the end-users) for routine product inspections is increasing. In recent years, the development and advances in sensing technologies have led to miniaturisation of near infrared (NIR) spectrometers to a new era. The new generation of miniaturised NIR analysers are designed as compact, small and lightweight devices with a low cost, providing a strong capability for on-site or on-farm product measurements. Applying portable and handheld NIR spectrometers in the dairy sector is increasing; however, little information is currently available on these applications and instrument performance. As a result, this review focuses on recent developments of handheld and portable NIR devices and its latest applications in the field of dairy, including chemical composition, on-site quality detection, and safety assurance (i.e., adulteration) in milk, cheese and dairy powders. Comparison of model performance between handheld and bench-top NIR spectrometers is also given. Lastly, challenges of current handheld/portable devices and future trends on implementing these devices in the dairy sector is discussed.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) was implemented in the resin transfer molding (RTM) process to inline monitor the degree of curing of a bio-based epoxy resin, which consists of epoxidized linseed oil (resin) and citric acid (hardener), respectively. A NIR micro-spectrometer was used for the development of robust calibration models using partial least squares (PLS) regression. Since the micro-spectrometer offers a smaller wavelength range compared with conventional NIR devices, and typical absorbance peaks are not directly involved in the captured data range, the results show new insights for the utilization of this technology. Different pre-treatments of the spectroscopic data have been tested, starting with different reference spectra, i.e., uncured resin and polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE), and followed by chemometrical algorithms. As a reference method for the degree of curing, direct current (DC) supported by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used. The results show the potential of these cost-efficient and compact NIR micro-spectrometers for the intended inline monitoring purpose to gain relevant information feedback during the process.

Abstract
Optical spectroscopic techniques have been commonly used to detect the presence of biofilm-forming pathogens (bacteria and fungi) in the agro-food industry. Recently, near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy revealed that it is also possible to detect the presence of viruses in animal and vegetal tissues. Here we report a platform based on visible and NIR (VNIR) hyperspectral imaging for non-contact, reagent free detection and quantification of laboratory-engineered viral particles in fluid samples (liquid droplets and dry residue) using both partial least square-discriminant analysis and artificial feed-forward neural networks. The detection was successfully achieved in preparations of phosphate buffered solution and artificial saliva, with an equivalent pixel volume of 4 nL and lowest concentration of 800 TU·\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

Abstract
Reflectance Visible (Vis) and Short Wave Infrared (SWIR) spectra of pre-cooked pasta products were collected in a non-invasive way by using an ASD FieldSpec® 4 Standard-Res portable spectrophotoradiometer (350-2500 nm). Vis-SWIR data were collected on 6 samples of Pennette 72 and 6 samples of Mezze Penne with different salting levels with the aid of a contact probe in two different physical conditions: i) frozen and ii) thawed. Fifty Vis-SWIR spectra were collected per measurement time from each sample resulting in 1200 raw spectra. The dataset presented in this descriptor can be used to explore the possibilities to develop automated methods to perform pre-cooked pasta analysis. Vis-SWIR data have potential reuse for follow-up studies finalized to develop pre-cooked pasta quality control applications by using similar devices or to test the ability of different chemometric algorithms.

Abstract
The practical impact of analytical probes that transduce in the near-infrared (nIR) has been dampened by the lack of cost-effective and portable nIR fluorimeters. Herein, we demonstrate straightforward designs for an inexpensive microplate reader and a portable fluorimeter. These instruments require minimally complex machining and fabrication and operate with an open-source programming language (Python). Complete wiring diagrams, assembly diagrams, and scripts are provided. To demonstrate the utility of these two instruments, we performed high-throughput and field-side measurements of soil samples to evaluate the effect of soil management strategies on extracellular proteolytic, cellulolytic, and lignin-modifying activities. This was accomplished with fluorescent enzyme probes that utilized uniquely sensitive transducers exclusive to the nIR spectrum, single-walled carbon nanotubes. We also used the portable fluorimeter to evaluate spatial variations of proteolytic activity within individual field plots, while minimizing the effects of soil storage and handling. These demonstrations indicate the utility of these fluorimeters for translating analytical probes that operate in the nIR beyond the laboratory and into actual use.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a rapid technique able to assess meat quality even if its capability to determine the shelf life of chicken fresh cuts is still debated, especially for portable devices. The aim of the study was to compare bench-top and portable NIR instruments in discriminating between four chicken breast refrigeration times (RT), coupled with multivariate classifier models.
Materials and Methods
Ninety-six samples were analysed by both NIR tools at 2, 6, 10 and 14 days post mortem. NIR data were subsequently submitted to partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and canonical discriminant analysis (CDA). The latter was preceded by double feature selection based on Boruta and Stepwise procedures.
Results
PLS-DA sorted moderate separation of RT theses, while shelf life assessment was more accurate on application of Stepwise-CDA. Bench-top tool had better performance than portable one, probably because it captured more informative spectral data as shown by the variable importance in projection (VIP) and restricted pool of Stepwise-CDA predictive scores (SPS).
Conclusions
NIR tools coupled with a multivariate model provide deep insight into the physicochemical processes occurring during storage. Spectroscopy showed reliable effectiveness to recognise a 7-day shelf life threshold of breasts, suitable for routine at-line application for screening of meat quality.
