Strategies for Achieving Food Security in Central Asia
Food Security is a primary concern for all countries. However the vulnerabilities which need addressing are dictated by the individual country according to the food control systems in place, the nature of the food industry and the culture of the country. This book summarises the presentations of a NATO Advanced Training Course addressing the issue of food security in Central Asia. The book is divided into two sections. The first provides an overview of the existing aspects of food security in participating Central Asian countries. The emphasis here is on food safety, control and access and includes background information on the relevant food industries. Participating countries include the Ky...

Sweeteners
Sweeteners: Nutritional Aspects, Applications, and Production Technology explores all essential aspects of sugar-based, natural non-sugar-based, and artificial sweeteners. The book begins with an overview presenting general effects, safety, and nutrition. Next, the contributors discuss sweeteners from a wide range of scientific and lifestyle perspectives. Topics include: The chemistry and functional properties of monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, and sugar polyols Analytical methodologies for determining low-calorie nonnutritive sweeteners Honey, syrups, and their physicochemical aspects and applications Sweeteners such as "sykin" and raisin, prune, apple, and grape juice c...
Food Chain Security
The pilot study on Food Chain Security was launched in 2003 by NATO Public Diplomacy Division Science for Peace and Security Section (SPS) under the leadership of Turkey. The purpose of the study was to study the safety and security of food stuffs in the face of their careless/ignorant handling as well as against expected terrorist attacks at the system which may destroy and/or degrade it at the source during distribution, processing and in the consumption phase. The study included the protective and response measures which may have to be taken to reduce the risk and mitigate the consequences of these threats to the food system. The final outputs of this pilot study were agreed to be mainly:...
Environmental Security and Ecoterrorism
In recent years, the concept of environmental security has been adapted to include preparedness for acts of ecoterrorism. This latter term has now become synonymous with environmental terrorism where the perpetrator uses the environment as a weapon to harm an opponent. The intended outcome is usually large-scale deaths, severe damage to the environment, and instilling fear in the general population. This book explores various facets of ecoterrorism including the role of the state in pursuing and maintaining environmental security, a review of the concept of ecoterrorism, food security challenges and weaknesses, technological countermeasures to enable rapid detection or response, and existing pollution sources and hazards that may serve as targets for terrorist acts. In sum, this volume provides a useful overview for both the layperson and experienced researchers.
Cheese Rheology and Texture
Research on the rheological and textural aspects of cheeses has continued to progress, with new measurement methods, and technological and physiochemical insights having been developed since the publication of the first edition over 20 years ago. The second edition of Cheese Rheology and Texture continues to bring together essential information on the rheological and textural properties of cheese and state-of-the-art measurement techniques, including the most up-to-date findings. This comprehensive resource begins with an overview of cheesemaking technology and provides a detailed description of fundamental rheological test methods, including uniaxial testing and fracture mechanics, the theo...
CMBEBIH 2019
This volume gathers the proceedings of the International Conference on Medical and Biological Engineering, which was held from 16 to 18 May 2019 in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Focusing on the goal to ‘Share the Vision’, it highlights the latest findings, innovative solutions and emerging challenges in the field of Biomedical Engineering. The book covers a wide range of topics, including: biomedical signal processing, medical physics, biomedical imaging and radiation protection, biosensors and bioinstrumentation, bio-micro/nano technologies, biomaterials, biomechanics, robotics and minimally invasive surgery, and cardiovascular, respiratory and endocrine systems engineering. Further topics include bioinformatics and computational biology, clinical engineering and health technology assessment, health informatics, e-health and telemedicine, artificial intelligence and machine learning in healthcare, as well as pharmaceutical and genetic engineering. Given its scope, the book provides academic researchers, clinical researchers and professionals alike with a timely reference guide to measures for improving the quality of life and healthcare.
