Six thin-layer drying models (Alibas, Demir et al. Henderson &amp; Pabis, Improved Midilli-Kucuk, Logarithmic, and Weibull) were fitted to the experimental data. Artificial neural network (ANN) models were also developed to predict the dimensionless moisture ratio (MR) using drying time and process parameters as inputs. The ANN model showed high prediction performance, with R<sup>2</sup> values reaching up to 0.9999. In addition, the ANN model achieved strong generalization performance, with Rc<sup>2</sup> = 0.9967, Rp<sup>2</sup> = 0.9132, and RPD = 3.3936, confirming its excellent predictive ability. Quality assessments revealed that FD preserved the highest antioxidant capacity (up to 94.7 ± 0.1 %), followed by MWD, HAD, and ID. The lowest water activity, enhancing shelf life, was observed in FD (0.29 ± 0.01 to 0.34 ± 0.01), while MWD showed the highest (0.41 ± 0.04 to 0.64 ± 0.01). Color analysis indicated the least change in FD and the most in ID. Overall, FD produced the highest quality tea, while MWD offered faster drying. ANN models effectively captured nonlinear drying behaviors. This integrated modeling and evaluation approach can support future optimization and quality control strategies in tea drying processes. Although the unified ANN yielded high accuracy (ALL R = 0.9999), model generalization is presently limited to laboratory-scale trials on a single tea cultivar. Further validation on industrial dryers and diverse leaf grades is required, and the ‘black-box’ nature of ANNs complicates direct physico-chemical interpretation. This is the first known study to integrate both artificial neural network (ANN) and mathematical modeling approaches to comprehensively assess the drying kinetics and quality attributes of tea leaves subjected to four different drying methods.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":382,"journal":{"name":"LWT - Food Science and Technology","volume":"229 ","pages":"Article 118172"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144634066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, the practical application of MG as a tyrosinase inhibitor is limited due to its poor water-solubility. To address this challenge, the inclusion complex of MG with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) was further prepared.

Furthermore, we propose incorporating local spectral feature data as a key indicator for translucency detection, combined with feature-extracted data to enhance detection accuracy. To address systematic batch variations, we employ direct orthogonal signal correction to eliminate irrelevant spectral information, thereby improving model generalizability. Experimental results show that the maximum accuracy of the pineapple translucency detection model reached 95.2 % (training set) and 94.3 % (validation set), respectively.

To address the shortcomings of biopolymer film material with single function, weak mechanical and barrier performances, innovative corn starch (CS)-based smart active packaging film with antimicrobial and colorimetric ammonia-sensitive function was manufactured by constructing novel nano Fe-HIA complex as functional filler. Results revealed that the manufactured CS/Fe-HIA films had uniform and intact morphologies resulting from robust hydrogen bonds between CS and Fe-HIA, and displayed significantly improved performances dependent on Fe-HIA content. Specially, the CS-based smart active film with relatively high Fe-HIA content (5 wt%) was much more sensitive to ammonia, showing noticeable color transition from brown to yellow. The well distributed Fe-HIA significantly promoted hydrophobicity (96.0°), water barrier, thermal stability, mechanical strength (6.8 MPa), and UV-blocking (100 %) performances of the film. Furthermore, CS/Fe-HIA films possessed good antibacterial activity (over 90 %), long-term color stability, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. In freshness monitoring trial, CS/Fe-HIA films were proved to be effective in real-time and visual monitoring of prawn spoilage. This study presents a new strategy for creating advanced biopolymer-based antimicrobial and colorimetric ammonia-sensitive film, boosting related application in smart active food packaging.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":382,"journal":{"name":"LWT - Food Science and Technology","volume":"228 ","pages":"Article 118142"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144581325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
