Rapid detection of honey adulteration using machine learning on gas sensor data.
Article in NPJ science of food, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Honey has long been an essential component of human nutrition, valued for its health benefits and economic significance. However, honey adulteration poses a significant challenge, whether by adding sweeteners or mixing high-value single-flower honey with lower-quality multi-flower varieties. Traditional detection methods, such as melissopalynological analysis and chromatography, are often time-consuming and costly. This study proposes an artificial intelligence-based approach using the BME688 gas sensor to detect honey adulteration rapidly and accurately. The sensor captures the gas composition of honey mixtures, creating a unique digital fingerprint that can be analysed using machine learning techniques. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can detect adulteration with high precision, distinguishing honey mixtures with up to 5% resolution. The findings suggest that this approach can provide a reliable, efficient, and scalable solution for honey quality control, reducing dependence on expert analysis and expensive laboratory procedures.
