The results show that at 70℃, ultrasonic integrated hot air drying makes hawthorn slices reach the drying endpoint in 140 min, shortening time by 39.1% vs hot air drying. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations revealed that higher ultrasonic power lead to an increase in the number and diameter of fine pores on the hawthorn surface. Higher ultrasonic power increases surface pores; this drying has better rehydration ratio and alleviates browning. Total organic acid first rises then falls in it but decreases continuously in hot air drying. LF-NMR shows ultrasonic power shortens moisture signal disappearance time. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed that at 60℃, the moisture signal hawthorn disappeared after 120 min of hot air drying, and the time required for moisture signal disappearance shortened with increasing ultrasonic power. Ultrasonic integrated hot air drying can effectively increase the drying rate, shorten the drying time, and improve the quality of hawthorn. The cavitation and mechanical effects of ultrasound increase the number and size of the fine pores in the hawthorn slices, loosen the surface tissue structure, and thereby facilitate moisture migration and diffusion during the drying process. The ultrasonic integrated hot air drying technology can significantly enhance the drying efficiency and improve the quality of products.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":562,"journal":{"name":"Food and Bioprocess Technology","volume":"19 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148986605","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}

However, their practical implementation remains limited by rapid degradation and uncontrolled “burst” release when directly incorporated into polymer matrices. While numerous reviews have summarized ANC-based packaging systems, the mechanistic basis linking encapsulation structure to release behavior and functional performance remains insufficiently resolved. This review addresses this critical gap by adopting a mechanism-oriented perspective that moves beyond conventional descriptive analyses. Specifically, it establishes a structure–release–function–safety framework to systematically elucidate how encapsulation architectures govern ANC stability, transport dynamics, and application performance in active and intelligent packaging systems. Diffusion- and swelling-controlled release mechanisms are critically analyzed in conjunction with predictive kinetic models, including Higuchi and Korsmeyer–Peppas, highlighting their limitations and applicability in complex biopolymer matrices. Application-driven case studies are reinterpreted through this mechanistic lens to demonstrate how encapsulated ANCs enable more reliable freshness monitoring and sustained preservation in real food systems compared to their free counterparts. In addition, this review integrates often-overlooked aspects—including nanocarrier migration, regulatory constraints, and techno-economic feasibility—into the design framework. By explicitly linking encapsulation engineering to functional predictability and industrial feasibility, this work provides a conceptual shift from empirical formulation toward rational design of ANC-based packaging systems, offering actionable insights for the development of next-generation active and intelligent packaging.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":562,"journal":{"name":"Food and Bioprocess Technology","volume":"19 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148986246","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}

Despite their importance, studies that relate these mechanical properties to moisture variation are underexplored and often lack analysis under actual drying conditions. In particular, the evolution of fracture stress with decreasing moisture content, together with comprehensive analyses of external and internal microstructure and case-hardening effects under different drying conditions, remain largely unexplored. Addressing these issues, this study systematically investigates the relationships between moisture content and key mechanical properties—hardness, elastic modulus, and fracture stress during both convective (CD) and intermittent microwave-convective drying (IMCD), while also evaluating case-hardening behaviour of apple sample. The results show that hardness and elastic modulus initially decrease with moisture loss, then increase sharply at low moisture levels (1.06 kg/kg and 0.971 kg/kg dry bases for CD and IMCD, respectively), reflecting the onset of structural hardening. Notably, fracture occurred only during the early stages of CD (with degree of compression ranging from 50 to 65% of samples’ instantaneous height and up to a moisture content of 2.85 kg/kg dry bases), whereas IMCD samples exhibited no fracture throughout the drying process, demonstrating superior structural resilience. Case-hardening analysis further revealed thicker crusts at 45 °C compared to 60 °C in both methods, with IMCD consistently yielding thinner and less rigid crusts than CD. These findings provide new insights into the coupled evolution of mechanical properties, fracture behaviour, and microstructure during drying, offering a robust basis for texture-based quality evaluation and the optimisation of energy-efficient drying processes for plant-based food materials.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":562,"journal":{"name":"Food and Bioprocess Technology","volume":"19 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11947-026-04563-z.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148927412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
