Detection of Meat Adulteration Using Spectroscopy-Based Sensors.

ABSTRACT: Minced meat is a vulnerable to adulteration food commodity because species- and/or tissue-specific morphological characteristics cannot be easily identified. Hence, the economically motivated adulteration of minced meat is rather likely to be practiced. The objective of this work was to assess the potential of spectroscopy-based sensors in detecting fraudulent minced meat substitution, specifically of (i) beef with bovine offal and (ii) pork with chicken (and vice versa) both in fresh and frozen-thawed samples. For each case, meat pieces were minced and mixed so that different levels of adulteration with a 25% increment were achieved while two categories of pure meat also were considered. From each level of adulteration, six different samples were prepared. In total, 120 samples were subjected to visible (Vis) and fluorescence (Fluo) spectra and multispectral image (MSI) acquisition. Support Vector Machine classification models were developed and evaluated. The MSI-based models outperformed the ones based on the other sensors with accuracy scores varying from 87% to 100%. The Vis-based models followed in terms of accuracy with attained scores varying from 57% to 97% while the lowest performance was demonstrated by the Fluo-based models. Overall, spectroscopic data hold a considerable potential for the detection and quantification of minced meat adulteration, which, however, appears to be sensor-specific.

Identification of Pork Adulteration in Processed Meat Products Using the Developed Mitochondrial DNA-Based Primers.

Project description:The identification of pork in commercially processed meats is one of the most crucial issues in the food industry because of religious food ethics, medical purposes, and intentional adulteration to decrease production cost. This study therefore aimed to develop a method for the detection of pork adulteration in meat products using primers specific for pig mitochondrial DNA. Mitochondrial DNA sequences for pig, cattle, chicken, and sheep were obtained from GenBank and aligned. The 294-bp mitochondrial DNA D-loop region was selected as the pig target DNA sequence and appropriate primers were designed using the MUSCLE program. To evaluate primer sensitivity, pork-beef-chicken mixtures were prepared as follows: i) 0% pork-50% beef-50% chicken, ii) 1% pork-49.5% beef-49.5% chicken, iii) 2% pork-49% beef-49% chicken, iv) 5% pork-47.5% beef-47.5% chicken, v) 10% pork-45% beef-45% chicken, and vi) 100% pork-0% beef-0% chicken. In addition, a total of 35 commercially packaged products, including patties, nuggets, meatballs, and sausages containing processed chicken, beef, or a mixture of various meats, were purchased from commercial markets. The primers developed in our study were able to detect as little as 1% pork in the heat treated pork-beef-chicken mixtures. Of the 35 processed products, three samples were pork positive despite being labeled as beef or chicken only or as a beef-chicken mix. These results indicate that the developed primers could be used to detect pork adulteration in various processed meat products for application in safeguarding religious food ethics, detecting allergens, and preventing food adulteration.

Detection of Adulteration in Infant Formula Based on Ensemble Convolutional Neural Network and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy.

Project description:Adulteration in dairy products has received world-wide attention, and at the same time, near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has proven to be a promising tool for adulteration detection given its advantages of real-time response and non-destructive analysis. Regardless, the accurate and robust NIR model for adulteration detection is hard to achieve in practice. Convolutional neural network (CNN), as a promising deep learning architecture, is difficult to apply to such chemometrics tasks due to the high risk of overfitting, despite the breakthroughs it has made in other fields. In this paper, the ensemble learning method based on CNN estimators was developed to address the overfitting and random initialization problems of CNN and applied to the determination of two infant formula adulterants, namely hydrolyzed leather protein (HLP) and melamine. Moreover, a probabilistic wavelength selection method based on the attention mechanism was proposed for the purpose of finding the best trade-off between the accuracy and the diversity of the sub-models in ensemble learning. The overall results demonstrate that the proposed method yielded superiority regression performance over the comparison methods for both studied data sets, and determination coefficients (R2) of 0.961 and 0.995 were obtained for the HLP and the melamine data sets, respectively.

Detection of goat body fat adulteration in pure ghee using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy coupled with chemometric strategy.

Project description:Ghee forms an important component of the diet of human beings due to its rich flavor and high nutritive value. This high priced fat is prone to adulteration with cheaper fats. ATR-FTIR spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics was applied for determining the presence of goat body fat in ghee (@1, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20% level in the laboratory made/spiked samples). The spectra of pure (ghee and goat body fat) and spiked samples were taken in the wavenumber range of 4000-500 cm-1. Separated clusters of pure ghee and spiked samples were obtained on applying principal component analysis at 5% level of significance in the selected wavenumber range (1786-1680, 1490-919 and 1260-1040 cm-1). SIMCA was applied for classification of samples and pure ghee showed 100% classification efficiency. The value of R2 was found to be >0.99 for calibration and validation sets using partial least square method at all the selected wavenumber range which indicate that the model was well developed. The study revealed that the spiked samples of goat body fat could be detected even at 1% level in ghee.

1H-NMR-Based Metabolomics: An Integrated Approach for the Detection of the Adulteration in Chicken, Chevon, Beef and Donkey Meat.

Project description:Meat is a rich source of energy that provides high-value animal protein, fats, vitamins, minerals and trace amounts of carbohydrates. Globally, different types of meats are consumed to fulfill nutritional requirements. However, the increasing burden on the livestock industry has triggered the mixing of high-price meat species with low-quality/-price meat. This work aimed to differentiate different meat samples on the basis of metabolites. The metabolic difference between various meat samples was investigated through Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy coupled with multivariate data analysis approaches like principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). In total, 37 metabolites were identified in the gluteal muscle tissues of cow, goat, donkey and chicken using 1H-NMR spectroscopy. PCA was found unable to completely differentiate between meat types, whereas OPLS-DA showed an apparent separation and successfully differentiated samples from all four types of meat. Lactate, creatine, choline, acetate, leucine, isoleucine, valine, formate, carnitine, glutamate, 3-hydroxybutyrate and α-mannose were found as the major discriminating metabolites between white (chicken) and red meat (chevon, beef and donkey). However, inosine, lactate, uracil, carnosine, format, pyruvate, carnitine, creatine and acetate were found responsible for differentiating chevon, beef and donkey meat. The relative quantification of differentiating metabolites was performed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey test. Our results showed that NMR-based metabolomics is a powerful tool for the identification of novel signatures (potential biomarkers) to characterize meats from different sources and could potentially be used for quality control purposes in order to differentiate different meat types.

Dataset of adulteration with water in coconut milk using FTIR spectroscopy.

Project description:This paper presents the spectroscopic dataset, pre-processing, calibration, and predicted model database of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy used to detect adulterated coconut milk with water. Absorbance spectral data were acquired and recorded in wavelength range from 2500 to 4000 nm for a total of 43 coconut milk samples. Coconut milk ware prepared in three forms of adulteration. Coconut milk comes from traditional markets and instant coconut milk in Indonesia. Spectra data may also be pre-processed to increase prediction accuracy, robustness performance using normalize, multiplicative scatter correction (MSC), standard normal variate (SNV), 1st derivative, 2nd derivative, and combination of 1st derivative and MSC. Calibration models and cross-validation to forecast those adulteration parameters use two regression algorithms, i.e., principal component regression (PCR) and partial least square regression (PLSR). By looking at its statistical metrics, prediction efficiency can be measured and justified (correlation coefficient (r), correlation of determination (R2), and root mean square error (RMSE)). Obtained FTIR datasets and models can be used as a non-invasive method to predict and determine adulteration on coconut milk.

Single-cell-based sensors and synchrotron FTIR spectroscopy: a hybrid system towards bacterial detection.

Project description:Microarrays of single macrophage cell-based sensors were developed and demonstrated for potential real-time bacterium detection by synchrotron FTIR microscopy. The cells were patterned on gold electrodes of silicon oxide substrates by a surface engineering technique, in which the gold electrodes were immobilized with fibronectin to mediate cell adhesion and the silicon oxide background was passivated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to resist protein adsorption and cell adhesion. Cell morphology and IR spectra of single, double, and triple cells on gold electrodes exposed to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of different concentrations were compared to reveal the detection capability of this cell-based sensing platform. The single-cell-based system was found to generate the most significant and consistent IR spectrum shifts upon exposure to LPS, thus providing the highest detection sensitivity. Changes in cell morphology and IR shifts upon cell exposure to LPS were found to be dependent on the LPS concentration and exposure time, which established a method for the identification of LPS concentration and infected cell population. Possibility of using this single-cell system with conventional IR spectroscopy as well as its limitation was investigated by comparing IR spectra of single-cell arrays with gold electrode surface areas of 25, 100, and 400 microm2 using both synchrotron and conventional FTIR spectromicroscopes. This cell-based platform may potentially provide real-time, label-free, and rapid bacterial detection, and allow for high-throughput statistical analyses, and portability.

Development of a Duck Genomic Reference Material by Digital PCR Platforms for the Detection of Meat Adulteration.

Project description:Low-cost meat, such as duck, is frequently used to adulterate more expensive foods like lamb or beef in many countries. However, the lack of DNA-based reference materials has limited the quality control and detection of adulterants. Here, we report the development and validation of duck genomic DNA certified reference materials (CRMs) through the detection of the duck interleukin 2 (IL2) gene by digital PCR (dPCR) for the identification of duck meat in food products. The certified value of IL2 in CRMs was 5.78 ± 0.51 × 103 copies/μL with extended uncertainty (coverage factor k = 2) based on IL2 quantification by eight independent collaborating laboratories. Quantification of the mitochondrial gene cytb revealed a concentration of 2.0 × 106 copies/μL, as an information value. The CRMs were also used to determine the limit of detection (LOD) for six commercial testing kits, which confirmed that these kits meet or exceed their claimed sensitivity and are reliable for duck detection.

Rapid adulteration detection of cold pressed oils with their refined versions by UV-Vis spectroscopy.

Project description:The aim of this study is the rapid detection of food pressed oils adulteration with their refined versions, using UV-Vis spectroscopy. The study investigates some common oil physico-chemical parameters such are: density, viscosity, refractive index, acid index, peroxide value, saponification index, to detect differences between cold pressed oils versus refined ones, for some food-grade oils found on Romanian market, as well as FT-IR spectroscopy and GC-MS analytical method, obtaining similar results to those presented in the literature data. The difference between some of the obtained results is not relevant for telling the cold-pressed oils from their refined version for adulteration investigation purpose. Colour analysis instead is a very good method to differentiate a cold pressed oil from a refined one. Taking this into account, the cold pressed oils and their refined versions were mixed in different proportions, and their colour properties were analyzed, obtaining linear dependences for a* and b* CIE L*a*b* parameters with cold pressed oil content in the mixture. Dependence equations were proposed.

Prediction of maize flour adulteration in chickpea flour (<i>besan</i>) using near infrared spectroscopy.

Project description:The present study was performed to develop Near-infrared spectroscopy based prediction method for the quantification of the maize flour adulteration in chickpea flour. Adulterated samples of Chickpea flour (besan) were prepared by spiking different concentrations of maize flour with pure Chickpea flour in the range of 1-90% (w/w). The spectra of pure Chickpea flour, pure maize flour, and adulterated samples of Chickpea flour with maize flour were acquired as the logarithm of reciprocal of reflectance (log 1/R) in the entire Visible-NIR wavelength range of 400-2498 nm. The acquired spectra were pre-processed by Ist derivative, standard normal variate, and detrending. The calibration models were developed using modified partial least square regression (MPLSR), partial least square regression and principal component regression. The optimal model was selected on the basis of highest values of the coefficient of determination (RSQ), one minus variance ratio (1-VR) and lowest values of standard errors of calibration (SEC), and standard error of cross-validation (SECV). MPLSR model having RSQ and 1-VR value of 0.999 and 0.996 having SEC and SECV value of 1.092 and 2.042 was developed for quantification of maize flour adulteration in chickpea flour. Cross validation and external validation of the developed models resulted in RSQ of 0.999, 0.997 and standard error of prediction of 1.117, and 2.075, respectively.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13197-022-05456-7.
