- Emerging technological advances in improving the safety of muscle foods: framing in the context of the food revolution 4.0Publication . Hassoun, Abdo; Siddiqui, Shahida Anusha; Smaoui, Slim; Ucak, İ̇lknur; Arshad, Rai Naveed; Bhat, Zuhaib F.; Bhat, Hina F.; Carpena, María; Prieto, Miguel A.; Aït-Kaddour, Abderrahmane; Pereira, Jorge A. M.; Zacometti, Carmela; Tata, Alessandra; Ibrahim, Salam A.; Ozogul, Fatih; Câmara, José S.; Augusto Machado Pereira, Jorge; Câmara, JoséTo address the issues related to high perishability and limited shelf life of food proteins from muscle origin, different innovative processing, and pre servation techniques, as well as analytical methodological approaches have been developed to meet environmental challenges and consumer demand for food of high quality and sustainable production supported by circular economy principles. This development has been enhanced and increased during the ongoing age of the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0), which has been gaining momentum since 2015, coming up with a range of automated and digitized technologies. This review provides an updated overview of the recently developed thermal and nonthermal processing and preservation technologies, along with selected advanced analytical techniques used in the industry of muscle foods. Particular attention has been given to Industry 4.0 technologies and their role in achieving smart production with high automation and digitalization rates. As in other indus try sectors, technology breakthroughs are reshaping the food industry, including the muscle food sector. Emerging technologies, such as pulsed electric field, high-pressure processing, ohmic heating, nanotechnology, advanced mass spectrometry and hyperspectral imaging sensors are among the key elements in the current food revolution 4.0. Although Industry 4.0 offers countless possibilities, more studies are still needed to capture its full potential and further harness its technologies to solve current challenges and move forward toward Industry 5.0.
- Food quality 4.0: from traditional approaches to digitalized automated analysisPublication . Hassoun, Abdo; Jagtap, Sandeep; Garcia-Garcia, Guillermo; Trollman, Hana; Pateiro, Mirian; Lorenzo, José M.; Trif, Monica; Rusu, Alexandru Vasile; Aadil, Rana Muhammad; Šimat, Vida; Cropotova, Janna; Câmara, José S.; Câmara, Joséthe increasing demand for healthier and more nutritious food products. Traditionally, food quality is determined using a range of destructive and time-consuming approaches with modest analytical performance, underscoring the urgent need to develop novel analytical techniques. The Fourth Industrial Revolution (called Industry 4.0) is progressing exponentially, driven by the advent of a range of digital technologies and other innovative tech nological advances. “Food Quality 4.0” is a new concept referring to the use of Industry 4.0 technologies in food analysis to achieve rapid, reliable, and objective assessment of food quality. In this review, we will first discuss the fundamentals and principles of Food Industry 4.0 technologies and their connections with the Food Quality 4.0 concept. Then, the most common techniques used to determine food quality will briefly be reviewed before highlighting the advancements made in analytical techniques to assess food quality in the era of Industry 4.0. Food Quality 4.0 is characterized by growing digitalization and automation of food analysis using the most advanced technologies in the food industry. Key aspects of Food Quality 4.0, including, among others, non destructive fingerprinting techniques, omics technologies and bioinformatics tools, Artificial Intelligence and Big Data, have great potential to revolutionize food quality. Although most of these technologies are still under development, it is anticipated that future research will overcome current limitations for large-scale applications.
- Seafood Processing, Preservation, and Analytical Techniques in the Age of Industry 4.0Publication . Hassoun, Abdo; Siddiqui, Shahida Anusha; Smaoui, Slim; Ucak, İlknur; Arshad, Rai Naveed; García-Oliveira, Paula; Prieto, Miguel A.; Aït-Kaddour, Abderrahmane; Perestrelo, Rosa; Câmara, José S.; Bono, GioacchinoFish and other seafood products are essential dietary components that are highly appre ciated and consumed worldwide. However, the high perishability of these products has driven the development of a wide range of processing, preservation, and analytical techniques. This de velopment has been accelerated in recent years with the advent of the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0) technologies, digitally transforming almost every industry, including the food and seafood industry. The purpose of this review paper is to provide an updated overview of recent thermal and nonthermal processing and preservation technologies, as well as advanced analytical techniques used in the seafood industry. A special focus will be given to the role of different Industry 4.0 technologies to achieve smart seafood manufacturing, with high automation and digitalization. The literature discussed in this work showed that emerging technologies (e.g., ohmic heating, pulsed electric field, high pressure processing, nanotechnology, advanced mass spectrometry and spectro scopic techniques, and hyperspectral imaging sensors) are key elements in industrial revolutions not only in the seafood industry but also in all food industry sectors. More research is still needed to explore how to harness the Industry 4.0 innovations in order to achieve a green transition toward more profitable and sustainable food production systems.
