An artificial neural network was developed to predict the kinetics of ascorbic acid loss in green asparagusduring thermal treatments and the model was trained using a back-propagation algorithm. The results
indicate that the optimal ANN models consisted one hidden layer and the optimal number of neuronsin the hidden layer was 24, 26, 26 and 18 for bud, upper, middle and butt segments of asparagus, respec-tively. The ANNs could predict the kinetic parameters of ascorbic acid degradation in asparagus with an
MSE of 1.3925 and MAE 0.5283 for bud segment, MSE 2.4618 and MAE 0.6436 for upper segment, MSE0.8985 and 0.4258 for middle segment and MSE 0.2707 and MAE 0.1883 for butt segment. In addition, the
correlation coefficients between experimental k, t 1/2 or D-value and predicted values were greater than0.99 in all cases. Therefore, ANN offers a simple, quick and convenient means of the kinetic parameters

1. Introduction
Asparagus ( Asparagus offcinalis L., family Liliaceae) is a healthyand nutritious vegetable, containing antioxidants, such as rutin,ascorbic acid, tocopherol, ferulic acid and glutathione (Shao et al.,
1997). Ascorbic acid (AA) is an important component of our nutri-tion and used as additive in many foods because of its antioxidantcapacity, however, it is known to be thermolabile and is easily de-stroyed during processing, especially thermal treatments (Garrote,
Silva, & Bertone, 1986). Blanching is one of the many processes thattake place during the preparation of raw vegetables before preser-vation processes like canning and freezing. Quantitative represen-
tation of kinetic data has also been extensively reported in anattempt to predict and optimize ascorbic acid retention duringblanching and storage. To date, several authors have studied thekinetics of AA degradation in foods during blanching and storage
and stated that it follows a first-order kinetic model (Al-Zubaidy& Khalil, 2007; Arroqui, Rumsey, Lopez, & Virseda, 2002; Burdurlu,Koca, & Karadeniz, 2006; Huelin, 1953; Johnson, Braddock, & Chen,1995; Lee & Coates, 1999; Vieira, Teixeira, & Silva, 2000 ).
Artificial neural network (ANN) is a set of mathematical meth-ods, often encompassed with artificial intelligence, which in someway attempt to mimic the functioning of the human brain ( Bilaet al., 1999). Recently, interest in using ANN as a modeling tool
in food technology is increasing. ANN has been successfully usedin several food applications like sensory analysis, classifications,
microbial predictions or thermal control among others (Afaghi,
Ramaswamy, & Prasher, 2001; Geeraerd, Herremans, Cenens, &
Van Impe, 1998; Guyer & Yang, 2000; Ni & Gunasekaran, 1998;Ruan, Almaer, & Zhang, 1995). Unlike other modeling techniquessuch as simultaneous heat and mass transfer, kinetic models, and
regression analysis, an ANN can accommodate more than two vari-ables to predict two or more parameters. In this study, we havedeveloped an artificial neural network useful to predict kineticsof ascorbic acid degradation in asparagus during blanching at dif-
ferent temperatures. Many authors have proposed mathematicalmodels and computer simulations representing ascorbic acid con-centration as a function of moisture content, temperature and time
(Haralampu & Karel, 1983; Mishkin, Saguy, & Karel, 1984; Villota &Karel, 1980). However, to our knowledge no previous study hasbeen reported on using ANNs to predict the kinetics of ascorbicacid degradation.
The present work was undertaken to: (1) evaluating the kineticsof ascorbic acid degradation during blanching in different parts of asparagus and (2) develop the kinetics of ascorbic acid loss predic-tion models based on artificial neural networks.

contents of different segments of asparagus were plotted as a func-tion of blanching time at various temperatures (Fig. 4). The AA con-
tent in asparagus decreased with an increase in blanching time andtemperature. Therefore, there was a difference in AA content due todifferent parts of asparagus, blanching temperature and time.
The fitted exponential curves (R2 = 0.8067 0.9931) showedgood results for dependence of AA concentration during blanching.
Therefore, the loss of AA in asparagus at all temperatures is de-scribed as a first-order reaction. The kinetic parameters of AA deg-radation during thermal treatments at different temperatures areshown in Tables 2–5. The t 1/2 and D-value decreased with increase
in blanching temperature. However, the reduction in the rate con-stant (k) corresponded to a decrease in temperature.
3.2. Temperature dependence
Fig. 5 shows Arrhenius plots of AA degradation in different seg-ments of asparagus. Activation energies (E a) and Q 10 values of AA
loss were calculated in asparagus and given in Table 6. The E a val-ues for AA degradation were 24.24 kcal mol1 for bud segment,
24.68 kcal mol

for upper segment, 28.70 kcal mol

for middlesegment and 27.56 kcal mol1 for butt segment. The Q 10 values at60–100 C ranged from 1.96 to 4.14, from 2.37 to 3.60, from 2.96to 4.23 and from 2.10 to 4.48 in bud, upper, middle and butt seg-ments, respectively. Table 6 showed that the highest Q 10 values
were observed at 90–100 C, and the lowest E a values were locatedin bud segment of asparagus.
3.3. ANN for kinetic parameters prediction
An artificial neural network based on back propagation wasused to predict kinetic parameters of AA degradation in asparagusduring thermal treatments. In our study, an one-hidden-layer FFBPwas used and the number of neurons in the hidden layer varied
from one to thirty. Fig. 6 illustrated the MSE, MRE, STDR, MAEand STD A, which were used to compare the performances of

various ANN models. The optimum number of hidden layer neu-rons was 24, 26, 26 and 18 for bud, upper, middle and butt seg-
ments of asparagus, respectively (Fig. 6). Plots of experimentallydetermined k, t 1/2 or D-value versus ANN predicted values areshown in Figs. 7–10. The correlation coefficients were greater than0.99 in all cases. For bud segment, R2 = 1 for predicted k, 0.9947 for
t 1/2 and 0.9995 for D-value. For upper segment, R2 = 0.9998, 0.9995
and 1 for k, t 1/2 and D-value, respectively. The correlation coeffi-cients ranged from 0.9992 to 0.9999 and from 0.9996 to 1 formiddle and butt segments, respectively. Errors in the prediction of
k, t 1/2 and D-value of AA degradation in asparagus with the optimalANN were presented in Table 7.
4. Discussion
Vegetables are a major source of ascorbic acid, a nutrient thatbesides its vitamin action is valuable for its antioxidant effect.
Asparagus is a green vegetable with high antioxidant activityamong the commonly consumed vegetables (Vinson, Hao, Su, &
Zubik, 1998). Our data showed that the content of AA was highest

in bud segment of asparagus (0.91 ± 0.04 mg/100 ml juice),followed by upper segment (0.72 ± 0.06 mg/100 ml juice), middlesegment (0.58 ± 0.06 mg/100 ml juice) and was least in butt seg-
ment (0.48 ± 0.04 mg/100 ml juice). However, Nindo, Sun, Wang,Tang, and Powers (2003) reported that the middle and basal partscontained more ascorbic acid than the tip portion of asparagus.
Although AA is an important component of our nutrition, it is the
least stable of all vitamins andis easily destroyed duringprocessing,especially thermal treatments, because of its thermolability. Garrote
et al. (1986) observed that the main mechanisms of AA loss duringthe blanching operation are thermal induced degradation or byleaching. Ourresults demonstrated that theAA content in asparagus
decreased depending on the blanching time and temperature(Fig. 4). Moreover, AA degradation in asparagus during blanchinghas been described by a first-order reaction model in our experi-ment. In fact, thefirst-order kinetic model hasbeen applied by many
researchers (Frias & Oliveira, 2001; Frias, Oliveira, Cunha,& Oliveira,1998; Giannakourou & Taoukis, 2003; Johnson et al., 1995; Uddin,

Hawlader, Ding, & Mujumdar, 2002) for evaluating AA degrada-tion in biological materials of food system. According to Table 6,
high activation energies and Q 10 values in middle and butt seg-ments indicated that AA degradation was more temperaturedependent than the other segments. The lowest E a value for AAdegradation was obtained in bud segment of asparagus. The low-
est activation energies for AA degradation are also remarkablesince this reaction is favoured at low temperatures. In addition,the t 1/2 and D-value of AA loss in bud segment were lower thanthe other segments at the same blanching temperature (Tables
2–5). Therefore, bud segment is more liable to lose AA than theother segments.
From a nutritional point of view, the extent of AA retention is awidely adopted quality criterion. Therefore, many authors have
proposed mathematical models and computer simulations predict-ing ascorbic acid loss during processing and storage (Haralampu &Karel, 1983; Mishkin et al., 1984; Vieira et al., 2000; Villota & Karel,1980). Recently, artificial neural network (ANN) has generated
increasing acceptance and is an interesting method in several foodprocessing applications like sensory analysis and quality control(Bucinski, Zielinski, & Kozłowska, 2004; Cabrera & Prieto, 2010;Lewis et al., 2008; O’Farrell, Lewis, Flanagan, Lyons, & Jackman,
2005; Panigrahi, Balasubramanian, Gu, Logue, & Marchello, 2006),classifications (Gestal et al., 2004; Nadal, Espinosa, Schuhmacher,

Salvadori, 2008; Mittal & Zhang, 2000). ANN is a powerful
mathematical tool that is capable of approximating any underlyingrelationship between the dependent and independent variables,learning from examples through iteration, without requiring a prior
knowledge of the relationships of the process parameters. More-over, its structure is relatively simple, with connections in paralleland sequence between neurons, which means a short computingtime and a high potential of robustness and adaptive performance
(Palancar et al., 1998). In this study, we tried to develop amathematical model based on artificial neural network to predictkinetics of AA degradation in asparagus during thermal process.
Our results showed that an one-hidden-layer FFBP has been builtable to predict the kineticparameters (k, t 1/2 and D-value) of AA loss,and the optimal number of nodes in the hidden layer was 24, 26, 26and 18 for bud, upper, middle and butt segments of asparagus,
respectively (Fig. 6). The optimal ANN could predict the kineticparameters of AA degradation in asparagus with an MSE of 1.3925and MAE 0.5283 for bud segment, MSE 2.4618 and MAE 0.6436for upper segment, MSE 0.8985 and 0.4258 for middle segment
and MSE 0.2707 and MAE 0.1883 for butt segment, as shown byTable 7. In addition, the correlation coefficients between experi-mental k, t 1/2 or D-value and ANN predicted values were greaterthan 0.99 in all cases (Figs. 7–10). Therefore, ANN algorithm
provided dramatically low prediction error and gave high determi-nation coefficient indicating a very good fit between actual andpredicted kinetic parameters. ANN offers several advantages overtraditional digital computations, including faster speed of informa-
tion processing, learning ability, fault tolerance, and multi-outputability. Success of this research will provide chemical kinetics withan alternative method for kinetic parameters determination.
