Article Abstract

The globalization of the food industry chain and the increasing complexity of the food supply chain present significant challenges for food authenticity and raw material processing. Food authenticity identification now extends beyond mere adulteration recognition to include quality evaluation, label compliance, traceability determination, and other quality-related aspects. Consequently, the development of high-throughput, accurate, and rapid analytical techniques is essential to meet these diversified needs. Foodomics, an innovative technology emerging from advancements in food science, enables both a qualitative judgment and a quantitative analysis of food authenticity and safety. This review also addresses crucial aspects of fully processing food, such as verifying the origin, processing techniques, label authenticity, and detecting adulterants, by summarizing the omics technologies of proteomics, lipidomics, flavoromics, metabolomics, genomics, and their analytical methodologies, recent developments, and limitations. Additionally, we analyze the advantages and application prospects of multi-omics strategies. This review offers a comprehensive perspective on the food chain, food safety, and food processing from field to table through omics approaches, thereby promoting the stable and sustained development of the food industry.

Yerba mate, a key crop in South America, is prized for its pleasant taste and high organoleptic quality, often linked to lower branch content. To quantify branch content and authenticate high-quality samples (less than 30 % m/m branch content), a Chemometrics-assisted Color Histogram-based Analytical System (CACHAS) was employed. Using Hue-Saturation-Value (HSV) histograms, Partial Least Squares (PLS) demonstrated excellent predictive performance, achieving a root mean square error (RMSEP) of 4.

Fruit and fruit-based products are a valuable source of essential nutrients, critical for food security, and drive economic productivity with minimal inputs. The significant rise in global demand for high-quality imported fruit and fruit-based products reflects a shift in consumer awareness and interest in the products origin and potential health-promoting bioactive compounds. Analytical techniques such as liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, inductively coupled plasma techniques, isotope-ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS), near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, visible near infrared (VIS-NIR) spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging (HSI), mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, terahertz spectroscopy, dielectric spectroscopy, electronic nose (e-nose), and electronic tongue (e-tongue) coupled with supervised and unsupervised chemometrics can be employed for traceability, authentication, and bioactive profiling of fruit and fruit-based products.

The origin and grade of green tea significantly influence its market value, yet their concurrent authentication remains challenging. Here, we developed a robust method combining multiple metallic elements and back propagation neural network (BPNN) to identify the origin and grade of tea simultaneously. This strategy utilizes inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) to analyze the content of multiple elements in green tea (e.

DNA literacy is becoming increasingly essential for navigating healthcare, understanding pandemics, and engaging with biotechnology-yet genomics education remains limited at the secondary level of education. We present a modular, hands-on curriculum designed for high school and early undergraduate students (ages 14-21) that introduces key genomics concepts through an experiment on fermentation, a process that is key to food preservation and medicine. Students follow a complete scientific process: exploring what DNA is and how microbial succession works, analyzing real DNA sequencing data, and writing a formal scientific report.
