Hyperspectral Imaging Combined With Image Fusion Features and Machine Learning to Discriminate Different Origins, Grades, and Shelf‐Life of Oranges

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This study verified that it is feasible to distinguish oranges of different origins, grades and shelf lives by using hyperspectral technology. It covers spectral, image and graph technologies, as well as machine learning and deep learning models. ABSTRACT This study reports the first application of hyperspectral feature fusion technology combined with ...

Total soluble solids from banana: evaluation and optimization of extraction parameters [PDF]

, 2008
Banana, an important component in the diet of the global population, is one of the most consumed fruits in the world. This fruit is also very favorable to industry processes (e.g., fermented beverages) due to its rich content on soluble solids and ...

Quality and storability of chicken nuggets formulated with green banana and soybean hulls flours [PDF]

Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2011
The present study was envisaged to investigate the effect of green banana (GBF) and soybean hulls flours (SHF) on the physicochemical characteristics, colour, texture and storage stability of chicken meat nuggets. The addition of GBF and SHF in the nugget formulations was effective in sustaining desired cooking yield and emulsion stability besides ...

Pesticide prioritization based on risk and model diet proposals for assessing cumulative exposure to pesticide residues in the Brazilian population through food consumption

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A risk classification of registered pesticides in Brazil was conducted, and the contribution of food to cumulative pesticide exposure was evaluated. Model diets were proposed, based on Brazilian consumption patterns. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide residue exposure assessments can be carried out during both the pre‐regulation and post‐regulation phases ...

A novel approach for resistant starch production from green banana flour using amylopullulanase

LWT, 2022
Abstract The present article emphasizes on improving the intrinsic content of resistant starch % in green banana flour through enzymatic intervention. The enzyme amylopullulanase has been selected for the study because of its bifunctional properties that are specifically acting on α 1–4 and α 1–6 glycosidic linkages present in the starch molecule. To

From Tobacco to Ultraprocessed Food: How Industry Engineering Fuels the Epidemic of Preventable Disease

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) are engineered to heighten reward and accelerate delivery of reinforcing ingredients, driving compulsive consumption and disrupting appetite regulation. This is a growing challenge for health policy. UPFs share key engineering strategies adopted from the tobacco industry, such as dose optimization and hedonic ...
