Application of Fluorescence Spectroscopy in Food Quality and Control

Though fluorescence is a long-established analytical method, it has only recently gained prominence as a valuable tool in food technology. As a particularly sensitive analytical technique, fluorescence spectroscopy allows for the precise identification of various components (functional, compositional and nutritional) of food products, including contaminants and additives. The introduction of new commercially available instruments for fluorescence analysis, coupled with improvements in time ...
