Food fraud poses a significant threat to the food industry. In today's complex global supply chains, the issue of brand reputation and protection has been in focus more than ever. Food fraud should be viewed solely as a quality assurance problem for individual companies but as a global influencing factor for the entire food industry, shaping decisions, values, brand reputations and corporate strategies. The need for low detection limits, as well as detection of sophisticated practices of adulteration, drives us to develop compound- and subject-specific methods that can provide strong evidence for or against a claim in complex samples. The fruit juice market is extremely important to the world economy. The processing method used to get the product from its growing location to the supermarket shelf, as well as the unique restrictions in force in the country where it is marketed, influence the type of fruit juice available on the market.
