Description
Summary:Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry(MALDI-TOF MS) technology has been widely used in food,medicine,chemical,and other fields.This paper reviews that the detection principles and characteristics of MALDI-TOF MS technology and its application in food microbiological identification,classification,traceability analysis.MALDI-TOF MS technology has advantages of rapid,accurate and efficient in microbiological detection.With the standardization of sample handling,improvemant of databases,and the problems of bioinformatics tool application,being solved,this technology will be important assistive tool in the field of microbiological detection and identification.
