Biogenic amines (BAs) are crucial markers of meat spoilage. Developing practical and effective BAs detection methods is essential for monitoring meat freshness and ensuring daily consumption safety. This study prepared several naphthalene-based fluorescent compounds to visually monitor meat freshness in real-time. These probes show a colorimetric fluorescence response to putrescine and cadaverine (typical spoilage indicators) through nucleophilic addition/elimination reaction. The detectability of these probes can be optimized by altering the electronegativity and substitution position of the recognition group. Among these compounds, 2-((6-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)naphthalen-2-yl)methylene)malono nitrile (TNMA) demonstrated exceptional sensing performance toward putrescine and cadaverine, including high-contrast fluorescence color transition (red to blue), rapid response times (∼30 s), high selectivity and sensitivity (detection limit for putrescine: 2.69 ppm, cadaverine: 6.11 ppm). Furthermore, the B/R values of TNMA test strips output by RGB analysis presented a linear correlation with total volatile basic nitrogen (TVBN, an international standard for evaluating food spoilage) values in pork. Based on this correlation, we utilized smartphone applications to construct an intelligent evaluation system, enabling visual monitoring of pork, chicken, and shrimp freshness under various storage conditions. The TNMA-based system offers a reliable platform for real-time, portable and visual monitoring of meat freshness for consumers and suppliers in the food industry.

Pork color is crucial for assessing its safety and freshness, and traditional methods of observing through human eyes are inefficient and subjective. In recent years, several methods have been proposed based on computer vision and deep learning have been proposed, which can provide objective and stable evaluations. However, these methods suffer from a lack of standardized data collection methods and large-scale datasets for training, leading to poor model performance and limited generalization capabilities.

Article Synopsis
- A new colorimetric sensor using green-colored silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) detects biogenic amines like histamine, which indicate spoilage in protein-rich foods.
- After optimizing various parameters, the sensor achieved a detection limit of 0.21 μg/mL for histamine, which was further improved to 0.09 μg/mL using smartphone imaging and artificial neural networks.
- The sensor effectively monitored histamine levels in chicken meat over three days, demonstrating its potential for real-time food freshness monitoring.

In this study, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based ratiometric fluorescence nanofiber films with salicylamide (SA) as the response signal, rhodamine B (RhB) as the internal reference were prepared using electrospinning technique, and reducing their water solubility by glutaraldehyde (G) crosslinked. The RhB and SA were successfully immobilized in the PVA substrate. Moreover, RhB and SA improved the water resistance, water vapor barrier, and mechanical strength of the nanofiber films, among the PVA nanofiber films containing RhB and 400 mg SA (PVA/RhB/4SA-G) showed the best packaging performance.

Background: larval meal (ZLM) is a high-quality feed supplement with potential activities that can improve fish growth performance and promote meat quality. However, there have been limited recent studies investigating the metabolic effects of ZLM. Therefore, this study aims to uncover the metabolomic mechanism through which ZLM improves tilapia meat flavor using metabolomic strategies.
