    Mapping acrylamide content in potato chips using near-infrared hyperspectral imaging and chemometrics
    (Elsevier, 2025-03-14) Peraza Alemán, Carlos Miguel; López Maestresalas, Ainara; Jarén Ceballos, Carmen; Ruiz de Galarreta, José Ignacio; Barandalla, Leire; Arazuri Garín, Silvia; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOOD
    This study investigated the potential of near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) for the prediction of acrylamide content in potato chips. A total of 300 tubers from two potato varieties (Agria and Jaerla) grown in two seasons and processed under the same frying conditions were analysed. Partial Least Square Regression (PLSR) and Support Vector Machine Regression (SVMR), combined with a logarithmic transformation of the acrylamide levels, were applied to develop predictive models. The most optimal outcomes for PLSR yielded R2 p: 0.85, RMSEP: 201 μg/kg and RPD: 2.53, while for SVMR yielded R2 p: 0.80, RMSEP: 229 μg/kg and RPD: 2.22. Furthermore, the selection of significant wavelengths enabled an 87.95 % reduction in variables without affecting the model’s accuracy. Finally, spatial mapping of acrylamide content was conducted on all chips in the external validation set. This method provides both quantification and visualization capabilities, thus enhancing quality control for acrylamide identification in processed potatoes.

    The application of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has gained signifcant importance in the past decade, particulary in the context of food analysis, including potatoes. However, the current literature lacks a comprehensive systematic review of the application of this technique in potato cultivation. Therefore, the aim of this work was to conduct a systematized review by analysing the most relevant compounds, diseases and stress factors in potatoes using hyperspectral imaging. For this purpose, scientifc studies were retrieved through a systematic keyword search in Web of Science and Scopus databases. Studies were only included in the review if they provided at least one set of quantitative data. As a result, a total of 52 unique studies were included in the review. Eligible studies were assigned an in-house developed quality scale identifying them as high, medium or low risk. In most cases the studies were rated as low risk. Finally, a comprehensive overview of the HSI applications in potatoes was performed. It has been observed that most of the selected studies obtained better results using linear methods. In addition, a meta-analysis of studies based on regression and classifcation was attempted but was not possible as not enough studies were found for a specifc variable.
