Application of solid 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in food science

Solid ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) , a non-destructive and efficient testing technology, which has a wide range of potential uses in the food industry.At the basis of recent 5 years' important literatures, the paper summarized the basic principle of solid ¹³C NMR as well as its important application in the food science.The application of solid ¹³C NMR in food science at home and abroad was mainly discussed here:such as the analysis of the molecular structure of food ingredients, the evaluation of food quality and functional properties test.The development prospect and the main problem of the solid ¹³C NMR technology on the food science were finally discussed in order to provide references for the application of this technology in our country.
