用电子鼻区分霉变燕麦及其传感器阵列优化
Discrimination of mildewed oats using electronic nose and optimization of its sensor array
摘要
Abstract
Oats (Avena Sativa L.) are one of the important food crops. It contains some rich nutrients. Oats easily gets mildew affected by environmental factors during storage, which is getting to be one of problems in the food safety field. As one artificial olfactory analysis method, the electronic nose technique is widely applied in crop quality detecting fields. This technique utilizes a gas sensor array to imitate a human’s olfactory system. The detecting signals measured by a gas sensor array is discriminated and recognized by an artificial pattern recognition method. Then the species of the detecting objectives can be determined. In this paper, electronic nose system was utilized to discriminate mildewed oat samples. The diagram includes three main parts:data acquisition and transmitting unit, sensor array and the chamber unit, and power and gas supply unit. The sensor array consisted of eight semiconductor gas sensors. Polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) material was utilized to fabricate the chamber. Each sensor room was separated, which helped to eliminate the cross-influence of the gas flow. At the same time, gas sensor array optimization was also studied. 25 g of oat samples were weighed and placed into an experimental container. The container was tightly sealed with parafilm. 40 samples were prepared. All samples were stored under room temperature and standard atmospheric pressure. In order to accelerate the mildew procedure of the samples, 4 mL deionized water was sprayed on all samples every day. 10 samples were randomly selected in an electronic nose measurement. The measurement time of each oat sample was 45 s. The experiments lasted for five days. The measurement data was measured and transmitted to the computer. The stochastic resonance had three principal parts:a weak input signal, a non-linear bistable system, and an additional dose of external Gaussian white noise. The experimental data was coupled into a non-linear bistable stochastic resonance model. Stepping external Gaussian stimulating white noise was utilized to modulate the stochastic resonance system for resonance generation. Finally, stochastic resonance signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was calculated and exported as signal-to-noise ratio curves. Eigen values of systematic output signal-to-noise ratio were selected for principal component analysis (PCA). The total degree of contribution of the first principal component and the second principal component was 96.43%. In order to improve the mildewed oat discrimination rate, sensor loadings analysis was used to evaluate the contribution rate of all gas sensors. The optimized gas sensor array included S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6 and S7. After an optimization procedure, the total degree of contribution of the first principal component and the second principal component was 99.31%. These results demonstrated that an electronic nose system presents a discriminating ability for mildewed oat samples. Sensor array optimization based loadings analysis improved the discriminating rate. The proposed method is promising in the crop quality and safety analysis field.关键词
