Abstract This review article summarizes the application of spectroscopic-based techniques as non-destructive techniques for the quality and safety evaluation of tomatoes. Spectroscopic techniques such as near-...infrared (NIR), visible/near-infrared (Vis/NIR), and Raman spectroscopy have been widely used for the evaluation of various quality attributes of tomatoes, including soluble solids content, pH, firmness, color, and lycopene content. Moreover, the use of spectroscopic techniques has also shown promising results in the detection and quantification of contaminants such as pesticides and pathogens in tomatoes. This technique has been widely used for internal quality evaluation of tomatoes and future studies should focus further on investigating the feasibility of this approach in the evaluation of external qualities. The advantages of spectroscopic techniques include their non-destructive nature, rapid analysis time, and potential for on-site analysis. However, the limitations of these techniques include the need for calibration models, sample preparation, and sensitivity to environmental factors such as temperature and humidity. Overall, spectroscopic-based techniques have great potential in the quality and safety evaluation of tomatoes, and further research is needed to explore their full capabilities and optimize their use in the tomato industry.show more
