“…Characteristic examples of these applications include the evaluation of the metabolite profile of genetically modified (GM) foods (Le Gall et al., ), monitoring the origin and quality of beer (Mannina et al., ) and other beverages (Lee et al., ; Lee et al., ), monitoring the compositional changes during fermentation of wine as well as characterization of the final product, (Hong, ; Mazzei et al., ; Skogerson et al., ), evaluation and authentication of edible oils (Alonso‐Salces et al., , ), and juices (Vogels et al., ), classification of fruits (Vermathen et al., ) and vegetables (Sobolev et al., ), as well as correlating the spectral pattern with sensory perception (Malmendal et al., ). In addition, the combination of NMR with MVSA allows the identification of metabolic biomarkers to determine metabolic status in humans (Fotiou et al., ) and animals (Sundekilde et al, ) and studying the impact of a nutritional approach by analyzing variations in the composition of bio‐fluids, such as urine and serum.…”
