About this ebook
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a mass spectrometry technique to visualize the spatial distribution of molecules, as biomarkers, metabolites, peptides or proteins by their molecular masses. Despite the fact that MSI has been generally considered a qualitative method, the signal generated by this technique is proportional to the relative abundance of the analyte and so quantification is possible.
Mass Spectrometry Imaging in Food Analysis,
a volume in the Food Analysis and Properties Series, explains how the novel use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) will be an ideal complementary approach. MALDI-MSI is a two-dimensional MALDI-MS technology that can detect compounds in a tissue section without extraction, purification, separation, or labeling. It can be used to visualize the spatial distribution of biomolecules in foods.Features:
- Explains the novel use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging in food analysis
- Describes how MALDI-MSI will be a useful technique for optical quality assurance.
- Shows how MALDI-MSI detects food contaminants and residues
- Covers the historical development of the technology
While there are a multitude of books on mass spectrometry, none focus on food applications and thus this book is ideally suited to food scientists, food industry personnel engaged in product development, research institutions, and universities active in food analysis or chemical analysis.

About the author
Leo M. L. Nollet earned an MS (1973) and PhD (1978) in biology
from the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. He is an editor
and associate editor of numerous books. He edited for M. Dekker,
New York—now CRC Press of Taylor & Francis Publishing
Group—the first, second, and third editions of Food Analysis
by HPLC and Handbook of Food Analysis. The last edition is a
two-volume book. Dr. Nollet also edited the Handbook of Water
Analysis (first, second, and third editions) and Chromatographic
Analysis of the Environment, third and fourth editions (CRC
Press). With F. Toldrá, he coedited two books published in 2006,
2007, and 2017: Advanced Technologies for Meat Processing (CRC
Press) and Advances in Food Diagnostics (Blackwell Publishing—
now Wiley). With M. Poschl, he coedited the book Radionuclide Concentrations in Foods
and the Environment, also published in 2006 (CRC Press). Dr. Nollet has also coedited
with Y. H. Hui and other colleagues on several books: Handbook of Food Product
Manufacturing (Wiley, 2007), Handbook of Food Science, Technology, and Engineering
(CRC Press, 2005), Food Biochemistry and Food Processing (first and second editions;
Blackwell Publishing—now Wiley—2006 and 2012), and the Handbook of Fruits and
Vegetable Flavors (Wiley, 2010). In addition, he edited the Handbook of Meat, Poultry,
and Seafood Quality, first and second editions (Blackwell Publishing—now Wiley—2007
and 2012). From 2008 to 2011, he published five volumes on animal product-related books
with F. Toldrá: Handbook of Muscle Foods Analysis, Handbook of Processed Meats and
Poultry Analysis, Handbook of Seafood and Seafood Products Analysis, Handbook of
Dairy Foods Analysis, and Handbook of Analysis of Edible Animal By-Products. Also,
in 2011, with F. Toldrá, he coedited two volumes for CRC Press: Safety Analysis of Foods
of Animal Origin and Sensory Analysis of Foods of Animal Origin. In 2012, they published
the Handbook of Analysis of Active Compounds in Functional Foods. In a collaboration
with Hamir Rathore, Handbook of Pesticides: Methods of Pesticides Residues
Analysis was marketed in 2009; Pesticides: Evaluation of Environmental Pollution in
2012; Biopesticides Handbook in 2015; and Green Pesticides Handbook: Essential Oils
for Pest Control in 2017. Other finished book projects include Food Allergens: Analysis,
Instrumentation, and Methods (with A. van Hengel; CRC Press, 2011) and Analysis
of Endocrine Compounds in Food (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011). Dr. Nollet’s recent projects
include Proteomics in Foods with F. Toldrá (Springer, 2013) and Transformation
Products of Emerging Contaminants in the Environment: Analysis, Processes,
Occurrence, Effects, and Risks with D. Lambropoulou (Wiley, 2014). In the series Food
Analysis & Properties, he edited (with C. Ruiz-Capillas) Flow Injection Analysis of Food
Additives
(CRC Press, 2015) and Marine Microorganisms: Extraction and Analysis ofBioactive Compounds
(CRC Press, 2016). With A.S. Franca, he coedited SpectroscopicMethods in Food Analysis
(CRC Press, 2017), and with Horacio Heinzen and Amadeo R.Fernandez-Alba he coedited Multiresidue Methods for the Analysis of Pesticide Residues
in Food (CRC Press, 2017). Further volumes in the series Food Analysis & Properties
are Phenolic Compounds in Food: Characterization and Analysis (with Janet Alejandra
Gutierrez-Uribe, 2018), Testing and Analysis of GMO-Containing Foods and Feed (with
Salah E. O. Mahgoub, 2018), Fingerprinting Techniques in Food Authentication and
Traceability (with K. S. Siddiqi, 2018), Hyperspectral Imaging Analysis and Applications
for Food Quality (with N.C. Basantia and Mohammed Kamruzzaman, 2018), Ambient
Mass Spectroscopy Techniques in Food and the Environment (with Basil K. Munjanja,
2019), and Food Aroma Evolution: During Food Processing, Cooking, and Aging (with
M. Bordiga, 2019).
