“…The development and implementation of sensors within food systems can enable better detection of food degradation markers and, thus, prevent and reduce food losses. Imaging sensors aboard satellites and/or drones or on physical structures on land represent one of the data acquisition technologies that enable the capturing of images for subsequent image analysis by different algorithms [ 68 ]. By their implementation in precision agriculture, most manual methods for direct measurement of phenotypic data (e.g., biomass, leaf area index, chlorophyll content, and plant tissue nitrogen content), which required intensive field collection of samples and destructive and time-consuming measurements, have been replaced by remote and nondestructive methods [ 69 ].…”

The rapid growth of the world population has increased the food demand as well as the need for assurance of food quality, safety, and sustainability. However, food security can easily be compromised by not only natural hazards but also changes in food preferences, political conflicts, and food frauds. In order to contribute to building a more sustainable food system—digitally visible and processes measurable—within this review, we summarized currently available evidence for various information and communication technologies (ICTs) that can be utilized to support collaborative actions, prevent fraudulent activities, and remotely perform real-time monitoring, which has become essential, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Internet of Everything, 6G, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and digital twin are gaining significant attention in recent years in anticipation of leveraging the creativity of human experts in collaboration with efficient, intelligent, and accurate machines, but with limited consideration in the food supply chain. Therefore, this paper provided a thorough review of the food system by showing how various ICT tools can help sense and quantify the food system and highlighting the key enhancements that Industry 5.0 technologies can bring. The vulnerability of the food system can be effectively mitigated with the utilization of various ICTs depending on not only the nature and severity of crisis but also the specificity of the food supply chain. There are numerous ways of implementing these technologies, and they are continuously evolving.

“…With an increasing number of electrodes the image resolution can be enhanced; but the larger the electrode number, the smaller the surface area of each single electrode. The magnitude of inter-electrode capacitance is thus reduced resulting in a lower signal-to-noise ration of the obtainable signal [158].…”

“…Since ancient times, pomegranate has been used for medicinal purposes in China, Ayurveda, and Islamic and Persian regions (Ge et al, 2021 ). Various parts of the pomegranate tree, bark, fruit, root, rind, fruit juice, seed, seed oil, stem, leaf, peel, and flower are known to have antioxidant, nitric oxide promoter, anticholesterolemic, antihypertensive, antiviral, antibacterial, anticandidal, and anticancer properties (Middha et al, 2012 ; Sun, 2012 ). Several bioactive compounds have been isolated from pomegranate peel.…”

Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that occurs due to impaired secretion of insulin, insulin resistance, or both. Recent studies show that the antidiabetic drugs used to control hyperglycemic levels are associated with undesirable adverse effects. Therefore, developing a safe and effective medicine with antidiabetic potential is needed. In this context, in silico studies are considered a rapid, effectual, and cost‐effective method in drug discovery procedures. It is evident from the literature that plant‐based natural components have shown promising outcomes in drug development to alleviate various diseases and hence have diversified the screening of potential antidiabetic agents. Purposely, in the present study, an in silico approach was performed on three Punica granatum peel metabolites (punicalin, punicalagin, and ellagic acid). All these three compounds were docked against nine protein targets involved in glucose metabolism (GFAT, PTP1β, PPAR‐ᵞ, TKIR, RBP4, α‐amylase, α‐glucosidase, GCK, and AQP‐2). These three pomegranate‐specific compounds demonstrated significant interactions with GFAT, PTP1β, PPAR‐ᵞ, TKIR, RBP4, α‐amylase, α‐glucosidase, GCK, and AQP‐2 protein targets. Specifically, punicalin, punicalagin, and ellagic acid revealed significant binding scores (−9.2, −9.3, −8.1, −9.1, −8.5, −11.3, −9.2, −9.5, −10.1 kcal/mol; −10, −9.9, −8.5, −8.9, −10.4, −9.0, −10.2, −9.4, −9.0 kcal/mol; and −8.1, −8.0, −8.0, −6.8, −8.7, −7.8, −8.3, −8.1, −8.1 kcal/mol, respectively), with nine protein targets mentioned above. Hence, punicalin, punicalagin, and ellagic acid can be promising candidates in drug discovery to manage diabetes. Furthermore, in vivo and clinical trials must be conducted to validate the outcomes of the current study.
