AbstractTurbot is a valuable commercial species due to its high nutrient content. Moisture is an important indicator of meat spoilage. This study elucidated distinctive water dynamics in turbot flesh in the freezing–thawing process by nondestructive low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques.T2relaxation spectra were utilized to describe the mobility and content of different types of water. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed a clear discrimination of various freezing–thawing cycles.T1- andT2-weighted MRI provided further visualization of internal information for turbot flesh. Microscopic examination clearly identified protein denaturation and structural shrinkage. Furthermore, NMR parameters and conventional physicochemical parameters of color, shear force and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances showed good correlations. To sum up, the study revealed that LF-NMR and MRI are promising techniques to portray the relationship between the water dynamics and changes of turbot quality properties during the freezing–thawing process.

Understanding karst unsaturated zone (UZ) recharge dynamics is crucial for achieving sustainable management of karst hydrosystems. In this paper, we provide the first report of the application of surface nuclear magnetic resonance (SNMR) monitoring of a karst UZ during a typical Mediterranean rain event. This 79 days’ SNMR monitoring is a part of a more than 2 years of SNMR monitoring at the Low Noise Underground Laboratory (LSBB) experimental site located within the Fontaine de Vaucluse karst hydrosystem (southeastern France). We present eight SNMR soundings conducted before and after the rain event that accumulated 168 mm in 5 days. The obtained results demonstrate the applicability and the efficiency of SNMR for investigating infiltration dynamics in karst UZs at the time scale of a few days. We present the SNMR amplitudes that highlight strong signal variations related to water dynamics in the karst UZ. Infiltrated water cause increased SNMR signal during 5 days after the rain event. A significant draining process of the medium starts 15 days after the main event. Finally, after 42 days, the SNMR signal returns close to the initial state.

AbstractMung bean sprouts are a kind of favorite healthy food across the world. As a forbidden plant hormone cytokinins, the use of 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BAP) in promoting the growth of bean sprouts is forbidden due to its safety concerns. Rapid analysis of 6-BAP treated bean sprouts is required to assess their growth changes and discriminate them from the normal sample. In this study, the water dynamics of growth for 6-BAP treated bean sprouts was monitored by the low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging. A simplified cartoon model of the water dynamics was proposed to explain the LF-NMR analysis result. Principal component analysis of the NMR relaxation data clearly showed the different water distribution of 6-BAP treated bean sprouts from the control sample. The juice of 6-BAP treated bean sprouts showed significant difference in the ultraviolet absorption and fluorescence spectra. Therefore, combining the spectrometry, the LF-NMR may have potential for rapid discrimination of the 6-BAP treated bean sprouts.
