Summary: The effect of thermal treatment using infrared and microwave fields on freezing of pork loin was investigated. The results show that both microwave and infrared pre-dehydration can reduce the thawing loss of pork loin and improve the texture and mouthfeel of the meat without damaging its color.

Summary: Ganoderma boninense (G. boninense) infection poses a significant threat to the palm oil industry by reducing oil palm productivity. Early detection of G. boninense is crucial as there is no effective treatment available. This study explores the use of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to detect the biomarker ergosterol, and the results show promising potential for non-destructive and in-situ detection of G. boninense infection. The use of chemometric and machine learning techniques further validates the effectiveness of the NIR-based detection system. Evaluation: 8 points.

Summary: A portable visible and near-infrared (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy system was developed to assess pork cooking loss rate, comparing spectra from frozen and thawed pork. Partial least square (PLS) was used to predict cooking loss rate after selecting characteristic variables using four different algorithms. The results showed that the competitive adaptive reweighted sampling PLS (CARS-PLS) models had higher prediction results for both frozen and thawed pork spectra. The method has the potential to predict frozen pork quality without thawing.

Summary: This review aims to develop a single score tool for meat quality evaluation based on visual and sensorial assessments of fresh meat. The study identifies meat color, sensory characteristics, and fat content as the most important intrinsic quality cues of fresh beef and pork, as well as the importance of price, certification logos, and brand for beef quality evaluation. A single-score tool named the Meat quality index has been developed, following approaches used in the food sector.

Summary: This study aimed to verify the feasibility of using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) and compression speed for the classification of wooden breast (WB). The results showed that NIR and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLSDA) can effectively distinguish between normal breast (NB) and WB. Additionally, the compression speed was used to achieve precise classification of WB. The compression speed can quantify and simulate the palpation method and is of significant importance in food classification.

Summary: This paper proposes a method for classifying tea quality levels based on near-infrared spectroscopy. The method includes obtaining absorbance spectra of tea samples, converting the spectral data to transmittance, dimensionally reducing the data using PCA, establishing a SVM classification model, and optimizing the model using PSO and CLPSO algorithms. The experimental results show high classification accuracy of 99.17% for the proposed method.

Summary: This meta-regression analysis aimed to investigate the relationship between fibre type cross-sectional area (CSA) and frequency (%) and meat quality traits, specifically tenderness. The results showed that only pH, WBSF, and drip loss were significantly associated with fibre type frequency and CSA (p < 0.05). When limited to pork analysis, it was found that frequency of type I fibres was associated with decreased drip loss, increased cook loss, decreased lightness (L*), and increased sensory tenderness, while frequency of type IIb fibres was associated with increased drip loss (p < 0.05). Additionally, CSA of type I and IIb fibres was correlated with color traits of lightness and redness (p < 0.05). Further research should focus on different breeds and muscles to enhance understanding of the effects of fibre type frequency and CSA on meat quality.
