  "abstract": "Intelligent aerogel indicators containing 10, 15, and 20% (w/v) pectin and red cabbage extract (RCE) were developed via sol-gel and freeze-drying techniques. Increasing pectin concentration significantly decreased porosity and moisture absorption capacity, while increasing bulk density and textural properties. FT-IR and XRD analyses confirmed hydrogen bonding between RCE and pectin and enhanced crystallinity in RCE-loaded aerogels. Variations in the anthocyanin-pectin ratio significantly influenced the colorimetric response and total color difference (ΔE) ΔE thresholds of RCE-loaded pectin aerogels, effectively monitoring changes in chicken meat freshness during 12 days of storage at 4 °C. ΔE in the RCE-loaded aerogels containing 10% pectin showed strong correlations with total viable count (TVC) and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) of chicken meat, which remained significant after controlling for storage time (p < 0.05). The high ΔE cut-off (25.8) and pronounced color response of the 10% pectin aerogels highlighted their potential for real-time freshness monitoring.",
