NMR-Based Metabolomics for a More Holistic and Sustainable Research in Food Quality Assessment: A Narrative Review

The ability of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) to extract chemical information from a complex mixture is invaluable and widely described in literature. Many applications this technique the foodomics field have highlighted how NMR could characterize food matrices, it can be used all along its “life chain”: farm fork digestion process. aim review an attempt show, firstly, potential as method based on green chemistry sample preparation, then characterizing nutritional qualities agri-food products (with particular attention their by-products) sustainable point view. For instance, NMR-based metabolomics approach has been enhance properties bio-products waste naturally rich antioxidants prebiotics. reintroduction these supply chain functional foods or ingredients answers satisfies consumer demand for more with high quality respect environment.
