Abstract:

Orbitrap mass spectrometry technique with high resolving power and mass accuracy can reliably identify isomers
and structural analogues of the target substances, as well as unknown compounds. Due to these advantages, it has been
widely used in life science, and environmental and food analysis. This review briefly describes the development of Orbitrap
mass spectrometry and its coupled techniques, and systematically summarizes the recent application of Orbitrap mass
spectrometry in the field of food analysis.

Key words: Orbitrap mass spectrometry, high resolution mass spectrometry, food analysis
