Abstract

The intrinsically complex nature of fish and seafood, as well as the complicated organisation of the international fish supply and market, make struggle against counterfeiting and falsification of fish and seafood products very difficult. The development of fast and reliable omics strategies based on spectroscopy in conjunction with multivariate data analysis has been attracting great interest from food scientists, so that the studies linked to fish and seafood authenticity have increased considerably in recent years. The present work has been designed to review the most promising studies dealing with the use of qualitative spectroscopy and chemometrics for the resolution of the key authenticity issues of fish and seafood products, with a focus on species substitution, geographical origin falsification, production method or farming system misrepresentation, and fresh for frozen/thawed product substitution. Within this framework, the potential of fluorescence, vibrational, nuclear magnetic resonance, and hyperspectral imaging spectroscopies, combined with both unsupervised and supervised chemometric techniques, has been highlighted, each time pointing out the trends in using one or another analytical approach and the performances achieved.
