Laser‐Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for Rapid Food Safety Monitoring: Advancements, Applications, and Future Directions

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) emerges as a transformative tool for rapid, on‐site pesticide residue detection in food, offering real‐time screening with minimal sample preparation and eliminating solvent use. Although LIBS demonstrates detection limits (0.009–6.9 mg/kg) suitable for regulatory screening and aligns with green chemistry ...
