"Survey of Integrated Viscosity Sensing Methods for the Augmentation of Mobile Food Scanner and In-line Sensing"

Abstract

Sensing Methods for the Augmentation of Mobile Food Scanner and In-line Sensing. Biomed J Sci & Tech Res 46(4)-2022. BJSTR. MS.ID.007379.Food and beverage production is a complex rheological field to work with because it involves dealing with a wide range of sample types and behaviors. Viscosity property of food has a significant impact on the food quality, and it could be a risk factor for evaluating the relationship between food retention and human health caries, hence urgently raises the need of immediate analysis and evaluation and monitoring the viscosity of food. Viscosity measurements of food and beverage products help maximize both production and process-ability efficiency and ensures a consistently high quality of the product. This paper presents and reviews a survey of conventional viscometers and rheometers used and pre-sented in markets, comparing their efficiency with new technology and sensing methods for viscosity measuring of food products. The paper concludes by reviewing the new approach to a tiny and porta-ble device as a friendly user, accurate with low cost to be equivalent to the laboratory measurements efficiency.
