Revolutionizing food science with mass spectrometry imaging: A comprehensive review of applications and challenges

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 23(4)

Published: June 25, 2024

Abstract Food science encounters increasing complexity and challenges, necessitating more efficient, accurate, sensitive analytical techniques. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) emerges as a revolutionary tool, offering molecular‐level insights. This review delves into MSI's applications challenges in food science. It introduces MSI principles instruments such matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization, desorption electrospray ionization, secondary ion mass spectrometry, ablation inductively coupled plasma highlighting their application chemical composition analysis, variety identification, authenticity assessment, endogenous substance, exogenous contaminant residue quality control, process monitoring processing storage. Despite its potential, faces hurdles the cost of instrumentation, sample preparation, limited capabilities, lack standardization for samples. While has wide range analysis can provide comprehensive accurate results, persist, demanding further research solutions. The future development directions include miniaturization devices, high‐resolution high‐speed MSI, multiomics multimodal data fusion, well artificial intelligence. These findings conclusions valuable references insights field offer theoretical methodological support practice

Advancing Health and Sustainability: A Holistic Approach to Food Production and Dietary Habits

Foods, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 13(23), P. 3829 - 3829

Published: Nov. 27, 2024

Producing healthier food requires expertise in methods that yield significant benefits for human health, sustainability, economic growth, cultural heritage, and overall well-being. Investing conscientious sustainable systems can improve individual planetary quality of life by preventing diseases, delaying ageing, enhancing While healthy eating habits begin at home, schools play a pivotal role reinforcing them from an early age. Despite progress, challenges remain, underscoring the need prioritizing education literacy across all ages. Knowledge how production impacts personal health well-being is critical. A holistic approach essential addressing these complexities, considering physical, mental, social, environmental factors to identify balanced effective solutions. Such analyses examine system components interact, guiding development practices. The DM4You project exemplifies this approach. It unites Portuguese partners promote local consumption, focusing on soups, integral part traditional cuisine, made with diverse vegetables, legumes, olive oil, sometimes by-products. monitors 80 participants over three months assess dietary habits, soup fruit consumption. This crossover study evaluates influence diet offering insights into health-promoting
