An Electronic Nose Based on Coated Piezoelectric Quartz Crystals to Certify Ewes’ Cheese and to Discriminate between Cheese Varieties
نویسندگان
چکیده
An electronic nose based on coated piezoelectric quartz crystals was used to distinguish cheese made from ewes' milk, and to distinguish cheese varieties. Two sensors coated with Nafion and Carbowax could certify half the ewes' cheese samples, exclude 32 cheeses made from cow's milk and to classify half of the ewes' cheese samples as possibly authentic. Two other sensors, coated with polyvinylpyrrolidone and triethanolamine clearly distinguished between Flamengo, Brie, Gruyère and Mozzarella cheeses. Brie cheeses were further separated according to their origin, and Mozzarella grated cheese also appeared clearly separated from non-grated Mozzarella.

The effect of whey protein concentrate based edible coating incorporating different concentrations of natamycin and lysozyme-xanthan gum conjugate on ultrafiltrated white cheese shelf life was investigated. Escherichia coli O157: H7 (as an indicator for gram negative bacteria), Staphylococcus aureus (as an indicator of gram-positive bacteria), and Penicillium chrysogenum (as a mold) were inocul...

Background: One of the most well-known Iranian traditional cheeses is Koozeh. The aim of present work was to evaluate the survival of L. monocytogenes during ripening of Iranian traditional Koozeh cheese made from raw ewe's milk. Methods: A 2-factor experimental design was applied to study the effect of ripening conditions, including different temperatures (4, 9, and 14 °C) and different conce...

An all digital interface, application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) has been developed for the control and data sampling of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM)-based electronic nose. The ASIC is capable of measuring QCM resonant frequency between 0 – 11 MHz with a resolution of 1 Hz and +/1 Hz precision. The ASIC has been used to obtain measurements from polymer coated QCM sensors, in conj...
