“…Di Natale et al [ 129 ] conducted research on oranges using a QCM prototype electronic nose. They distinguished between the different storage days (duration) for oranges, whereas Russo et al [ 104 ] recently were able to discriminate between genuine bergamot ( C. bergamia Risso et Poiteau) essential oils from other non-genuine types in order to defend the uniqueness of this very economically-important Southern Italian product. Akakabe et al [ 149 ] worked on some Chinese species and varieties of citruses (including C. nagato-yusukichi Tanaka, C. sudachi Hort.…”

Fruits produce a wide range of volatile organic compounds that impart their characteristically distinct aromas and contribute to unique flavor characteristics. Fruit aroma and flavor characteristics are of key importance in determining consumer acceptance in commercial fruit markets based on individual preference. Fruit producers, suppliers and retailers traditionally utilize and rely on human testers or panels to evaluate fruit quality and aroma characters for assessing fruit salability in fresh markets. We explore the current and potential utilization of electronic-nose devices (with specialized sensor arrays), instruments that are very effective in discriminating complex mixtures of fruit volatiles, as new effective tools for more efficient fruit aroma analyses to replace conventional expensive methods used in fruit aroma assessments. We review the chemical nature of fruit volatiles during all stages of the agro-fruit production process, describe some of the more important applications that electronic nose (e-nose) technologies have provided for fruit aroma characterizations, and summarize recent research providing e-nose data on the effectiveness of these specialized gas-sensing instruments for fruit identifications, cultivar discriminations, ripeness assessments and fruit grading for assuring fruit quality in commercial markets.

Dracocephalum kotschyi essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation (HD), microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (MAHD), and solvent-free microwave extraction (SFME) were investigated by GC-FID (Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization Detector) and GC-MS (Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry). The percentage of oxygenated compounds was significantly increased from 62.52% in HD to 76.47% in MAHD, and 84.52% in SFME. Conversely, the monoterpene hydrocarbons were decreased from 30.84% in HD to 13.71% in MAHD, and 5.85% in SFME. The main compound in the essential oil obtained by HD is limonene, which accounted for more than 30% of the oil, while the percentage of this compound was reduced to 9.52% in MAHD, and 5.60% in SFME. The percents of other oxygenated compounds such as neral, geranial, geraniol, geranyl acetate, α-terpineol, trans-verbenol, carvon, and transcarveol were noticeably higher in microwave methods than those present in HD method. In aqueous medium, linear oxygenated monoterpenes may be converted to a monocyclic terpinyl cation, which it could lose a proton to give limonene. The main biosynthetic pathway of these compounds, as well as a possible route of their conversion into limonene, due to prolonged heating in the HD method, was proposed. The antimicrobial activity of D. kotschyi essential oils against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria was evaluated by broth microdilution susceptibility manner. The most sensitive bacteria to these oils was found to be S. aureus with the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration value of 2 mg mL −1 for MAHD and SFME specimens. The results indicated that oils obtained by microwave methods were more active against S. aureus. ARTICLE HISTORY

The inherent ability of most living organisms to perceive their immediate environment based on sensory responses has immensely contributed to their survival in the harshest of conditions. Animals rely on their olfactory sense to assess the quality of food before intake. This paper addresses a technique of using the electronic nose for distinguishing Khasi Mandarin orange plants infected by a virus called Citrus Tristeza Virus (CTV) in terms of their degree of infection. Leaves from 16 plants were collected and, tested for CTV infection using the standard serological test, Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), prior to electronic nose (e-nose) analysis. Essential oil was extracted from the leaves using hydro distillation and the extracted oils were analyzed with commercial e-nose system Alpha MOSFOX 3000 system. Bootstrapped ensemble of support vector classifier was used for classifying the samples. The classifier model was optimized with the best parameters and a kernel specific performance evaluation was done for finding out the best model for classification. Among the linear, radial basis function and polynomial kernels, the linear kernel of the classifier performed the best among all the kernels with an accuracy of 97.67% and a Cohen's Kappa score of 95.25% . Dimensionality reduction techniques like principle component analysis and linear discriminant analysis were also used for graphical visualization of the classification boundaries. The dimensionally reduced dataset was also fitted to the optimized bootstrap ensemble support vector classifier and the performance of the classifier was analyzed. The performance scores of the classifier models reveal the possibility of using e-nose technique in detecting CTV infected plants.
