“…have been adapted for the measurement of a wide range of quality parameters during food processing [9]. Examples of ultrasound inspection in particular can be found in various studies in the recent literature-monitoring the pork loin cooking process [10], characterizing edible oils [11], and monitoring coagulation in cheesemaking [12,13]. Some studies have used ultrasound parameters to characterize honey.…”

Ultrasound inspection permits the characteristics of some foodstuffs to be determined easily and cheaply. This experimental study included the determination of various ultrasound parameters provided by the fast Fourier transform (FFT) which had not previously been considered in testing the physical properties of different varieties of honey. These parameters are practically independent of the criteria adopted for their calculation, unlike other ultrasound variables such as pulse velocity or attenuation whose determination can vary depending on those criteria. The study was carried out on four varieties of honey (Eucalyptus, Heather, Thyme, and Thousand Flowers) using 500-kHz transducers. A simultaneously performed honey texture analysis (Texture Profile Analysis-TPA) showed significant linear correlations between the ultrasound variables provided by FFT and the texture parameters. The FFT parameters distinguished between each of the four honey varieties studied.

“…Although in some cases this might be true, it is certain that testing a wide spectrum will inherently serve us with more information on the material [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ]. As Budelli et al pointed out, measurements of only attenuation or the TOF parameter have their own specific limitations [ 33 ]. Few studies investigated the spectral response of clotting milk, and these only focused on a very limited number of testing frequencies or bandwidths, hence the same issue persists, although slightly mitigated [ 34 , 35 ].…”

Development of a Novel Ultrasonic Spectroscopy Method for Estimation of Viscosity Change during Milk Clotting

Ultrasonic testing is an emerging non-destructive testing technology with high repeatability and precision. Milk is a very complex liquid and the change of its viscosity is a highly relevant property throughout conversion into other dairy products. In the following paper, we propose a novel method for the monitoring of viscosity during enzymatic milk clotting by ultrasonic spectroscopy. An ultrasonic transducer–receiver couple with a 250 kHz nominal frequency was submerged in the samples and an enveloped sweep (“chirp”) signal was applied in a through-transmission mode. Simultaneously, the change in viscosity was measured with a rotational viscometer at a constant shearing speed. The data were analyzed with an algorithm developed by the authors for spectral ultrasonic testing. Estimations yielded a high adjusted R2 (0.963–0.998) and low cross-validated estimation error (RPD: 4.38–14.22), suggesting that the method is suitable for industrial use given the right instrumentation.

“…It is known that ultrasonic detection technology is noninvasive, nondestructive and harmless when compared with other monitoring techniques [1]. Plenty of detections in various fields can be carried out using the characteristic that ultrasounds have different propagation velocities and attenuation in different media [2] [3].…”

A noninvasive method based on ultrasonic velocity was proposed to detect the displacement front in core displacement experiments. CO2 drive experiments were carried out to prove the possibility of detecting the displacement front. The characteristic that ultrasounds have different propagation velocities in different media was used to detect the displacement front in core displacement experiments. The average velocity can be calculated by measuring the first break time of the ultrasonic wave. Arranging all average velocities of different times at a certain position of the core model in chronological order and then finding the catastrophe point, it is the moment of the catastrophe point that the displacement front arrived.
