Abstract
Pericarpium citri reticulatae (PCR) is the dried mature fruit peel of Citrus reticulata Blanco and its cultivated varieties in the Brassicaceae family. It can be used as both food and medicine, and has the effect of relieving cough and phlegm, and promoting digestion. The smell and medicinal properties of PCR are aged over the years; only varieties with aging value can be called “Chenpi”. That is to say, the storage year of PCR has a great influence on its quality. As the color and smell of PCR of different storage years are similar, some unscrupulous merchants often use PCRs of low years to pretend to be PCRs of high years, and make huge profits. Therefore, we did this study with the aim of establishing a rapid and nondestructive method to identify the counterfeiting of PCR storage year, so as to protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. In this study, a classification model of PCR was established by e-eye, flash GC e-nose, and Fourier transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) combined with machine learning algorithms, which can quickly and accurately distinguish PCRs of different storage years. DFA and PLS-DA models were established by flash GC e-nose to distinguish PCRs of different ages, and 8 odor components were identified, among which (+)-limonene and γ-terpinene were the key components to distinguish PCRs of different ages. In addition, the classification and calibration model of PCRs were established by the combination of FT-NIR and machine learning algorithms. The classification models included SVM, KNN, LSTM, and CNN-LSTM, while the calibration models included PLSR, LSTM, and CNN-LSTM. Among them, the CNN-LSTM model built by internal capsule had significantly better classification and calibration performance than the other models. The accuracy of the classification model was 98.21 %. The R2P of age, (+)-limonene and γ-terpinene was 0.9912, 0.9875 and 0.9891, respectively. These results showed that the combination of flash GC e-nose and FT-NIR combined with deep learning algorithm could quickly and accurately distinguish PCRs of different ages. It also provided an effective and reliable method to monitor the quality of PCR in the market.
