Abstract

Determination of the geographical origin of food and beverages has been a growing issue over the past decade for all countries around the world, mostly because of the concern of consumers about the authenticity of the food that they eat. An increasing number of research articles in the past five years have investigated the elemental composition and the isotope ratios as indicators to determine the origin of food and beverages. The proposed investigation will be the first attempt of application of validated method including multi-element and multi-isotope chemical characterization and the statistical tools in order to use for determination of the geographical origin of food and beverages in the R. Macedonia. Comparative analysis (R. Macedonia vs. R. China) will help in improving the large-scale application of the implemented proposed method.
