Composites hydrogel beads were ionotropically crosslinked in CaCl₂ solution under facile condition (ambient temperature). The investigated adsorption material was then characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller Method and Thermogravimetric analysis. Various parameters for bead preparation and extraction parameters affecting the extraction efficiency were optimized. Under optimized conditions, good linearity was achieved in the range of 10–800.0 µg L⁻¹, with R² more than 0.99. Limit of detections were in the range of 3 –6 µg L⁻¹. respectively. Good enrichment factors were found within the range of 19 – 43 folds. Acceptable relative recoveries (68–112 %) with the relative standard deviations in the range of 0.1–10.7 %, were obtained. The developed method provided good extraction efficiency, LODs and LOQs lower than the maximum residue limit of sulfonamide antibiotics restricted by European Union, good repeatability with small amount of sorbent and organic solvent consumption were obtained. The extraction performance of the developed sorbent was compared with an octadecyl sorbent and with other sorbent materials. The proposed method is simple, rapid, has high efficiency, high recovery, and high sensitivity for the analysis of sulfonamides in three different brands of honey. Four greenness assessment tools were confirmed that the proposed method is more eco-friendly method. Therefore, the proposed methods have potential to be used as alternative green extraction method compared to our previous report (Khiaophong, &amp; Vichapong, 2024).</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15867,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Composition and Analysis","volume":"145 ","pages":"Article 107832"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144185184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional techniques are often time-consuming and complex, whereas Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) offers a fast and highly sensitive alternative. In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized via a one-pot hydrothermal method using trisodium citrate (TSC) as a reducing agent and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a capping agent. By optimizing PVP and TSC concentrations, a novel AgNPs@capillary SERS substrate was fabricated through in situ assembly of AgNPs onto the inner walls of glass capillaries. The substrate enabled rapid, on-site detection of pesticide residues, specifically the neonicotinoid acetamiprid (ACE) and benzimidazole fungicide carbendazim (CBZ). SERS measurements showed strong linear correlations for ACE (R² = 0.9713, 0.01–0.5 μg/mL) and CBZ (R² = 0.9566, 0.005–0.5 μg/mL). Importantly, the detection limits reached 2.28 × 10⁻³ μg/mL for ACE and 6.25 × 10⁻³ μg/mL for CBZ, demonstrating excellent sensitivity.

Traditional quality assessment approaches sometimes include time-consuming and harmful testing, which limits their usefulness in real-time monitoring. It looked at the progression of traditional methods and the emergence of cutting-edge technologies, with a particular emphasis on the integration of multimodal approaches. This review focuses on modern approaches including spectroscopy, imaging technologies, and electronic noses that allow for the quick evaluation of essential quality features of frying oil and fried food products such as texture, color, and oil degradation. Key findings show that these unconventional approaches (e.g., NIR-spectroscopy, electric nose, imaging, etc.) are a reliable alternative to established studies, allowing producers to optimize frying operations while maintaining product integrity. However, the report acknowledges some limitations. Non-destructive approach calibration can be complicated, requiring large datasets to maintain accuracy across multiple food matrices. Furthermore, the initial price of new equipment may be a barrier for smaller food producers. Despite these challenges, incorporating quick and non-destructive procedures into quality evaluation is a big step forward for the food sector, supporting increased safety, efficiency, and product quality. Future research recommendations emphasize the need of continuous inquiry in addressing difficulties and discovering new possibilities. Future research should focus on standardizing these procedures and tackling scaling challenges in order to maximize their use across a wide range of food products.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15867,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Composition and Analysis","volume":"145 ","pages":"Article 107839"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144185183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
