Meat plays a significant role in human diets, providing a rich source of high-quality protein. With advancements in technology, research in the field of meat preservation has been undergoing dynamic evolution. To gain insights into the development of this discipline, the study conducted an analysis and knowledge structure mapping of 1672 papers related to meat preservation research within the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) spanning from 2001 to 2023. And using software tools such as VOSviewer 1.6.18 and CiteSpace 5.8.R3c allowed for the convenient analysis of the literature by strictly following the software operation manuals. Moreover, the knowledge structure of research in the field of meat preservation was synthesized within the framework of “basic research—technological application—integration of technology with fundamental research,” aligning with the research content. Co-cited literature analysis indicated that meat preservation research could be further categorized into seven collections, as well as highlighting the prominent role of the antibacterial and antioxidant properties of plant essential oils in ongoing research. Subsequently, the future research direction and focus of the meat preservation field were predicted and prospected. The findings of this study could offer valuable assistance to researchers in swiftly comprehending the discipline’s development and identifying prominent research areas, thus providing valuable guidance for shaping research topics.

The abundant nutrients in oysters provide a good external environment for the growth and reproduction of microorganisms [11]. Dead oysters will deteriorate under the action of digestive enzymes and oxidation, producing a pungent odor [12]. ...

The shell-closing strength (SCS) of oysters is the main parameter for physiological activities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the applicability of SCS as an indicator of live oyster health. This study developed a flexible pressure sensor system with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as the substrate and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as the sensitive layer to monitor SCS in live oysters (rGO-PDMS). In the experiment, oysters of superior, medium and inferior grades were selected as research objects, and the change characteristics of SCS were monitored at 4 °C and 25 °C. At the same time, the time series model was used to predict the survival rate of live oyster on the basis of changes in their SCS characteristics. The survival times of superior, medium and inferior oysters at 4 °C and 25 °C were 31/25/18 days and 12/10/7 days, respectively, and the best prediction accuracies for survival rate were 89.32%/82.17%/79.19%. The results indicate that SCS is a key physiological indicator of oyster survival. The dynamic monitoring of oyster vitality by means of flexible pressure sensors is an important means of improving oyster survival rate. Superior oysters have a higher survival rate in low-temperature environments, and our method can provide effective and reliable survival prediction and management for the oyster industry.
... In particular, freshness is the most important reference index for evaluating quality and safety [6][7][8]. Traditional techniques such as sensory, chemical, and microbial population-assessment techniques are the primary methods used to determine the shelf life or freshness of oysters [9,10]. As human sensory evaluations are susceptible to subjective factors, even for experienced and trained personnel, it is difficult for humans to perform quantitative sensory assessments and to make assessments consistent across raters. ...

In this work, a new colorimetric sensor based on mesoporous silica nanosphere-modified color-sensitive materials was established for application in monitoring the total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) of oysters. Firstly, mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) were synthesized based on the improved Stober method, then the color-sensitive materials were doped with MSNs. The “before image” and the “after image” of the colorimetric senor array, which was composed of nanocolorimetric-sensitive materials by a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera were then collected. The different values of the before and after image were analyzed by principal component analysis (PCA). Moreover, the error back-propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) was used to quantitatively predict the TVB-N values of the oysters. The correlation coefficient of the colorimetric sensor array after being doped with MSNs was greatly improved; the Rc and Rp of BP-ANN were 0.9971 and 0.9628, respectively when the principal components (PCs) were 10. Finally, a paired sample t-test was used to verify the accuracy and applicability of the BP-ANN model. The result shows that the colorimetric-sensitive materials doped with MSNs could improve the sensitivity of the colorimetric sensor array, and this research provides a fast and accurate method to detect the TVB-N values in oysters.

The ability of manufacturing organisations to generate defect-free, high-quality products is critical to their long-term success in the marketplace. Despite increased product diversity and complexity, as well as the necessity for cost-effective manufacturing, it is frequently important to conduct a thorough and reliable quality examination. There are bottlenecks in the manufacturing process because there are so many checks done. In this paper, we aim to automate the process of quality control in industries using a machine learning classifier that monitors the manufactured product namely the central processing unit via imaging technique. Development of a model with high quality control improves the productivity and efficacy of production that rejects the malignant and defect pieces from the supply chain. The use of imaging systems or high-speed camera enables the improvement of software quality, where the analysis is built using high clarity input images. The data processed by these imaging systems are transferred to the cyber-physical system for secured access within an organization. The results of classification of input images and process via machine learning improves the efficacy of the model over various machine learning models.

Total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) content is one of the critical safety evaluation indexes in seafood. This study investigated the colorimetric sensing array (CSA) technique with two data collection blocks, imaging and visible near-infrared spectroscopy, for non-destructive prediction of TVB-N content in Fujian oysters. Three data fusion strategies coupled with variable selection approaches including variable combination population analysis (VCPA), ant colony optimization, and competitive adaptive reweighted sampling were applied to establish the partial least squares (PLS) model for predicting the TVB-N content of oysters. Better prediction performance was obtained using data fusion of two information blocks than using individual block data. The results showed that the high-level-VCPA strategy showed the best performance with the correlation coefficient of the prediction set (Rp) at 0.9128. This work demonstrates that the use of CSA has the potential for non-destructive monitoring of TVB-N content in Fujian oysters.
