Interpretation of Mass Spectra, say the authors, "aims at correlating ion dissociation mechanisms on a much broader scale, with emphasis on basic attributes such as ionization energies, proton affinities, and bond dissociation energies". They stress that the most important part of learning how to interpret unknown mass spectra is to practise doing it. "Prof. McLafferty's text has become a classic for classroom or self study concerned with interpreting mass spectra in order to discern molecular structures or identities of compounds."

Food contains various compounds and many technologies exist to analyze those molecules of interest. However, the analysis of the spatial distribution of those compounds using conventional technology, such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry is difficult. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a mass spectrometry technique to visualize the spatial distribution of molecules, as biomarkers, metabolites, peptides or proteins by their molecular masses. Despite the fact that MSI has been generally considered a qualitative method, the signal generated by
