Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The rapid and cost-effective detection of food contaminants such as toxins and pathogens is a major challenge and a key concern for food safety. To this end, innovative, fast, cost-effective, and easy-to-use sensors must be developed at the point where food is produced, distributed, and consumed. Therefore, timely detection and response to food contaminants can improve human health and reduce economic burden. However, affordable sensor technologies with specificity, sensitivity, and speed are required, which can be used by non-specialized personnel and enable high throughput analysis. In this respect, advances in the development of nanoparticle-based sensors, i.e., nanosensors, have shown the potential to provide the much-anticipated versatile sensors. In addition, multiplex detection, i.e., the ability to detect multiple targets simultaneously, is another strategy facilitated by nanoparticle-based sensors and will enable further improvements in sensor performance that are important for developing effective monitoring. This review summarizes the nanosensors for multiplex sensing of food samples with respect to hazardous contaminates reported over the past few years. In addition, special attention is paid to providing the reader with promising design principles and the current performance of the sensitivity and selectivity of such sensors for practical requirements, thereby inspiring new ideas for developing further advanced systems.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
