A precise analysis of biogenic amines is important as an indicator of food freshness or spoilage that can cause serious toxicity. This book provides comprehensive background information on biogenic amines and their occurrence in various foods and drinks such as fermented and non-fermented sausages and fish products, cheeses, vegetables and beverages, e.g. beer, cider and wine. It gives a detailed description of both the established analytical methods and the emerging technologies for the analysis of them. As the first book on the detection of biogenic amines in all types of food, it provides help to get a better understanding of the risks associated with biogenic amines and how to avoid them. It serves as an excellent and up-to-date reference for food scientists, food chemists and food safety professionals.
This book explores key examples concerning the implementation of information technology and mathematical modeling to solve issues concerning environmental sustainability. The examples include using fuzzy weighted multivariate regression to predict the water quality index at Perak River in Malaysia; using wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for a remote river water pollution monitoring system; deriving biomass activated carbon from oil palm shell; and assessing the performance of a PV/T air solar collector. The book offers a valuable resource for all graduate students and researchers who are working in this rapidly growing area.
This book presents essentially a collection of proceedings that deliberate on the key challenges and recent trends on robotics, automation and data analytics which are the pillars of Industry 4.0. Solutions that are employed in the multitude spectra of innovative robotics & automation and data analytics are discussed. The readers are expected to gain an insightful view on the current trends, issues, mitigating factors as well as solutions from the book. This book consists of selected papers presented at the 2nd International Conference on Innovative Technology, Engineering and Sciences 2020 (iCITES) hosted virtually by Universiti Malaysia Pahang on 22nd December 2020. iCITES is a biennial conference, aimed at building a platform that allows relevant stakeholders to share and discuss their latest researches, ideas and survey reports from theoretical to a practical standpoint especially in the Innovative Robotics & Automation and Data Analytics tracks which was published in this book.
This book fills an important gap in the literature, and presents contributions from scientists and researchers working in the field of sustainable development who have engaged in dynamic approaches to implementing sustainability in higher education. It is widely known that universities are key players in terms of the implementation and further development of sustainability, with some having the potential of acting as “living labs” in this rapidly growing field. Yet there are virtually no publications that explore the living labs concept as it relates to sustainability, and in an integrated manner. The aims of this book, which is an outcome of the “4th World Symposium on Sustainable Dev...
