Factors examined included EC treatment (conventional, untreated), canopy location (high, low), and apple variety (Gala, Golden Delicious). Fruit maturity (mature, immature) was also examined for one year. A rifampicin-resistant generic E. coli cocktail was applied to apples at 7.3 ± 0.4 log CFU/apple, and apples were enumerated for E. coli levels at 0, 2, 10, 18, 34, 42, 58, 82, 106, and 154 h postinoculation. Log-linear, Weibull, and Biphasic models were utilized to characterize the die-off pattern of E. coli. For most treatments, inoculated E. coli decreased by almost or over 6 log CFU/apple over the study duration; however, E. coli remained detectable at low levels on apples at 154 h postinoculation. EC treatment and canopy location did not significantly impact daily linear E. coli die-off rates. Apple variety and maturity demonstrated small but statistically significant impacts on daily linear die-off rates. Nonlinear models (i.e., biphasic and Weibull) best captured E. coli die-off on apples, showing a rapid initial decrease followed by a slower decline over time. Overall, results demonstrate that EC, a useful fruit quality practice, did not impact the survival of inoculated generic E. coli on apple surfaces.

Compared to the current “trial-and-error” practice, this paper proposes a dedicated two-step classifiability analysis framework to address this issue. The first step collects more than 90 diversified metrics to measure the dataset separability from different perspectives. The second step synthesizes these metrics into a quantitative score using meta-learner and decomposition-based strategies. Finally, two Raman spectroscopic profiling case studies were conducted to validate the method, demonstrating higher scores for the easily separable liquor dataset (around 1.0) compared to the more challenging table salt dataset (<0.5). This score can guide researchers to determine the required model complexity and assess the adequacy of the current physio-chemical profiling instrument.
