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

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 50-66, January 2026.
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 ...

Determination of Aflatoxin M1, Organochlorine Pesticides, and Heavy Metals in Raw Milk of Iran

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 11, November 2025.
The consumption of milk by different age groups makes its contamination as a crucial issue for public health. Therefore, the consumption of milk is considered in terms of AFM1, OCs, and heavy metals. Although monitoring of the milk safety is necessary. ABSTRACT The current study aimed to investigate aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs),
