“…Omics-based technologies, such as metabolomics, related to the strength of massive molecular tools can help circumvent the limitations of traditional methodologies, and therefore are being developed for the authentication of a wide range of food commodities, such as organic carrot authentication ( 18 ), food ingredient authenticity ( 19 ), geographical origins of oranges and shrimps, wine and cheese origin discrimination ( 20 – 23 ), and fruit juice authenticity ( 24 , 25 ).
