Abstract:

The use of illegal additives in foods and healthy foods has a long history. Taking the purpose of and information
about illegal additives as a starting point, combined with characteristics of food products, integrative screening methods
with targeted or untargeted solutions have been developed, which are expected to provide an important path to discover such
illegal behavior. The novel and effective screening procedure and supporting regulations presented in this work will provide
an effective way to identify substances illegally added to food products.
