A particular mention is needed for describing one analytical technique capable of detecting the exact site-specific isotope ratio. This technique, called SNIF-NMR (site specific natural isotope fractionating technique), constitutes the most specific and sophisticated method used for food authenticity determination. 

Food authentication is the process by which a food is verified as complying with its label description. Authenticity problems are directly associated with the labelling of a product and compositional regulations, which may differ from country to country and that have a fundamental place in determining which scientific tests are appropriate for a particular issue. 

In the last years, the aim of our research was to investigate the potential of the gas and liquid sensor arrays for food authentication and quality control investigation on the freshness evolution of Italian Crescenza cheeses, characterisation and classification of honey of different botanical and geographical origin, and characterisation and classification of Italian Barbera wines.

Food authentication is one of the major areas involved in food quality and safety. Several regulations have been implemented to assure correct information and to avoid species substitutions (26). Food species identification has traditionally relied on morphological/anatomical analysis. However, this is a difficult task in the case of closely related species and especially for those products that have been subjected to processing practices. Therefore, there is a strong need for fast and reliable molecular identification methods that provide authorities and food industries the tools needed to comply with labeling and traceability requirements, thus ensuring product quality and protection of the consumer.
