Despite available analytical methods for characterizing sugar molecules, the limitations of conventional methods drive researchers to seek more convenient alternatives. This study aimed to characterize common disaccharides such as sucrose, lactose, maltose, and trehalose using a time domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR), facilitating a quick, cost-effective, and user-friendly approach. In this experiment, transverse relaxation distribution curve was analyzed for characterizing disaccharides. Two peaks, referred to as the main and secondary peak(s), were observed for all the disaccharides, while a single peak (the main peak) was observed for pure water. Although they have similar molecular formulas and weights, lactose exhibited the longest relaxation time for the secondary peak, followed by trehalose, sucrose, and maltose. This behavior was assumed due to the interaction of sugar molecules with water. The increasing concentration of disaccharide in the solution displayed the leftward shifting of peaks. Maltose showed two secondary peaks, which were not observed in other sugar samples. The NMR showed potential to distinguish disaccharides from unknown powders and solutions by analyzing either the relaxation time of the secondary peak or the ratio of the secondary to the total peak. Moreover, quantification is possible from the standard curves of relaxation time and the combined peak area of the main and secondary peaks with the corresponding sugar concentration. However, it shows challenges in discrimination between α- and β-isomers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":561,"journal":{"name":"Food Analytical Methods","volume":"17 12","pages":"1770 - 1782"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142600589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the spoilage of meat, CO₂ is evolved primarily through microbial respiration. The production of CO₂ is often a sign of active spoilage, which helps in determining the freshness and safety of meat consumption. The level of carbon dioxide evolved during meat spoilage was measured using a fluorescent material–coated capillary tube. A CO<sub>2</sub> sensing dye was immobilized in a hybrid sol–gel silica matrix followed by its deposition inside a glass capillary tube, which acts as the sensing medium. When the sensing medium is excited by a light source, it fluoresces. The intensity of the fluorescence emitted when meat samples are exposed to the capillary tube diminishes proportionally to the CO<sub>2</sub> concentration, thereby enabling quantification. The fluorescence intensity and CO<sub>2</sub> concentration were found to have a high linear correlation (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> > 0.95), demonstrating the method’s accuracy and dependability. A low response time of 12 s signifies the fast detection of changes happening in the evolution of CO<sub>2</sub> from meat. The recovery time is determined to be 17 s. Within this time, the sensor becomes ready to react to fresh stimuli for CO<sub>2</sub> detection. A short recovery time allows for more rapid successive measurements. This approach is environment-friendly and makes real-time measurements possible, making it ideal for on-site and in-line applications in the food sector. It provides the meat processing industry with an easy, affordable, and effective replacement for traditional methods, enabling quicker decision-making and quality control.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":561,"journal":{"name":"Food Analytical Methods","volume":"17 12","pages":"1723 - 1731"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142600640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
