摘要
Economically motivated adulteration (EMA) and/or cross-contamination are the two major factors resulting in the substandard quality of premium edible oil like extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) produced in food and beverage (F&B) fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industries. Current quality assurance methods (e.g., spectroscopy and chromatography) in FMCG involve intrusive sample extraction and ex situ analysis in a laboratory using expensive bulky instrumentation, which is neither integrable inline nor scalable to match the production throughput. Such techniques do not meet the industrial requirements of in situ testing, non-intrusive analysis, and high throughput inspection (100% product verification) leading to food loss and package waste from unwanted batch rejects. Herein, a low-cost electrical approach based on capacitance is proposed to show the proof of concept for screening EVOO-filled containers non-invasively for adulteration without any sample extraction by capturing the differences in the dielectric properties of mixed oils. The sensor system displayed a fast response (100 ms) and low detection limits for different adulterants (olive oil (32.8%), canola oil (19.4%), soy oil (10.3%) and castor oil (1.7%)), which is suitable for high-throughput (>60 sample/min) screening. Furthermore, a low-cost automated system prototype was realized to showcase the possibility of translating the proof of concept for possible scaling up and inline integration.
