The rapid development of metabolomics-based approaches using mass spectrometry (MS) has demonstrated their potential to face these challenges. This review presents a critical overview of the most recent applications of MS-based metabolomics approaches for food quality, safety and traceability assays, covering the most relevant works published from 2010 to 2013. We also provide information about the different steps needed to develop a MS-metabolomics approach (i.e. sample treatment, analytical platform, and data processing). 收起
