Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and multispectral imaging (MSI) were evaluated for the prediction of the microbiological quality of poultry meat via regression and classification models. Chicken thigh fillets (n = 402) were subjected to spoilage experiments at eight isothermal and two dynamic temperature profiles. Samples were analyzed microbiologically (total viable counts (TVCs) and Pseudomonas spp.), while simultaneously MSI and FT-IR spectra were acquired. The organoleptic quality of the samples was also evaluated by a sensory panel, establishing a TVC spoilage threshold at 6.99 log CFU/cm2. Partial least squares regression (PLS-R) models were employed in the assessment of TVCs and Pseudomonas spp. counts on chicken’s surface. Furthermore, classification models (linear discriminant analysis (LDA), quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA), support vector machines (SVMs), and quadratic support vector machines (QSVMs)) were developed to discriminate the samples in two quality classes (fresh vs. spoiled). PLS-R models developed on MSI data predicted TVCs and Pseudomonas spp. counts satisfactorily, with root mean squared error (RMSE) values of 0.987 and 1.215 log CFU/cm2, respectively. SVM model coupled to MSI data exhibited the highest performance with an overall accuracy of 94.4%, while in the case of FT-IR, improved classification was obtained with the QDA model (overall accuracy 71.4%). These results confirm the efficacy of MSI and FT-IR as rapid methods to assess the quality in poultry products.

Applications of Fourier transform near infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy in fisheries science are currently limited. This current analysis of otolith spectral data demonstrate the potential applicability of FT-NIR spectroscopy to otolith chemistry and spatial variability in fisheries science. The objective of this study was to examine the use of NIR spectroscopy as a tool to differentiate among marine fishes in four large marine ecosystems. We examined otoliths from 13 different species, with three of these species coming from different regions. Principal component analysis described the main directions along which the specimens were separated. The separation of species and their ecosystems may suggest interactions between fish phylogeny, ontogeny, and environmental conditions that can be evaluated using NIR spectroscopy. In order to discriminate spectra across ecosystems and species, four supervised classification model techniques were utilized: soft independent modelling of class analogies, support vector machine discriminant analysis, partial least squares discriminant analysis, and k-nearest neighbor analysis (KNN). This study showed that the best performing model to classify combined ecosystems, all four ecosystems, and species was the KNN model, which had an overall accuracy rate of 99.9%, 97.6%, and 91.5%, respectively. Results from this study suggest that further investigations are needed to determine applications of NIR spectroscopy to otolith chemistry and spatial variability.
