The goal of Advances in Plant Biotechnology is to integrate the most recent knowledge on tissue culture, secondary metabolites production under controlled conditions, scaling up to produce them at bioreactor level, and their industrial applications. The biosynthetic pathways and the factors that affect them and the accumulation of metabolites, including metabolomics in medicinal plants, are key components as well. Several extraction and encapsulation technological procedures are reviewed. The structure and function of metabolites from selected commercial crops are reported in detail. Finally, items of paramount importance, such as bioavailability and stability of metabolites in pharma and fo...
Bioconversion of agricultural and industrial wastes into useful products plays an important role both in the economy and in the prevention of environmental pollution. This book presents technological approaches to the biotransformation of different wastes into valuable products and demonstrates developments in the field of organic waste disposal. Organized in four parts, Bioconversion of Wastes to Value-added Products addresses the bioconversion of wastes to (a) new food products, (b) energy; (c) biotechnological products, and (d) describes the construction of biosensors for food control. Features: • Covers the use of different food waste to enrich meat, dairy, bakery, and confectionery pr...
Health-Promoting Food Ingredients during Processing presents a comprehensive science-based approach covering the latest naturally occurring bioactive compounds in seeds, dietary fiber, proteins, fermented bio-compounds, agro-industrial waste by-products, and lactic acid bacteria. A volume in the Food Biotechnology and Engineering Series, the book discusses their identification, characterization, biological activities in terms of their bioavailability, bioaccessibility, and their beneficial effects as inflammatory mediators, probiotics, antioxidants, and hypoglycemic agents, as well as in gastrointestinal digestion and colonic fermentation. Written by an international expert team of food scie...
En esta obra se estudian los alimentos y bebidas que sirvieron de base para el desarrollo y florecimiento de las grandes civilizaciones mesoamericanas y que, posteriormente, se han convertido en fuente y legado para nuestra región y el resto del planeta.
As our understanding of the science and functions of color in food has increased, the preferred colorants, forms of use, and legislation regulating their uses have also changed. Natural Colorants for Food and Nutraceutical Uses reflects the current tendency to use natural pigments. It details their science, technology, and applications as well as t
