Freezing Effects on Food Quality
This work presents a comprehensive overview of existing knowledge regarding the influence of freezing, frozen storage and thawing of specific food-stuffs. It delineates how freezing processes alter the colour, appearance, palatability, nutritional value, intrinsic chemical reactions, microbiological safety and consumer acceptance of foods. The fundamental concepts upon which food-freezing technologies are based, are reviewed.
Handbook of Fruits and Fruit Processing
The processing of fruits continues to undergo rapid change. In the Handbook of Fruits and Fruit Processing, Dr. Y.H. Hui and his editorial team have assembled over forty respected academicians and industry professionals to create an indispensable resource on the scientific principles and technological methods for processing fruits of all types. The book describes the processing of fruits from four perspectives: a scientific basis, manufacturing and engineering principles, production techniques, and processing of individual fruits. A scientific knowledge of the horticulture, biology, chemistry, and nutrition of fruits forms the foundation. A presentation of technological and engineering princ...
Novel Food Processing Technologies
Reflecting current trends in alternative food processing and preservation, this reference explores the most recent applications in pulsed electric field (PEF) and high-pressure technologies, food microbiology, and modern thermal and nonthermal operations to prevent the occurrence of food-borne pathogens, extend the shelf-life of foods, and improve
Handbook of Fruits and Fruit Processing
HANDBOOK OF FRUITS AND FRUIT PROCESSING SECOND EDITION Fruits are botanically diverse, perishable, seasonal, and predominantly regional in production. They come in many varieties, shapes, sizes, colors, flavors, and textures and are an important part of a healthy diet and the global economy. Besides vitamins, minerals, fibers, and other nutrients, fruits contain phenolic compounds that have pharmacological potential. Consumed as a part of a regular diet, these naturally occurring plant constituents are believed to provide a wide range of physiological benefits through their antioxidant, anti-allergic, anti-carcinogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Handbook of Fruits and Fruit Processin...
Emerging Methods for Oil Extraction from Food Processing Waste
Emerging Methods for Oil Extraction from Food Processing Waste is a comprehensive and cutting-edge exploration of sustainable oil extraction practices, catering to professionals and researchers in food science. The book, spanning 13 insightful chapters, intricately reviews the extraction of oil from food processing by-products, including pomace and surplus raw materials. It specifically focuses on emerging non-thermal technologies, offering valuable insights into improving oil extraction rates. The discussions encompass factors influencing extraction rates and suggest processing conditions based on various extraction methods and raw materials. In addition to providing a nuanced understanding...
Aflatoxin and Food Safety
Aflatoxins are responsible for damaging up to 25% of the world's food crops, resulting in large economic losses in developed countries and human and animal disease in under-developed ones. In addition to aflatoxins, the presence of other mycotoxins, particularly fumonisins, brings additional concerns about the safety of food and field supplies. The
Food Preservation Techniques
Extending the shelf-life of foods whilst maintaining safety and quality is a critical issue for the food industry. As a result there have been major developments in food preservation techniques, which are summarised in this authoritative collection. The first part of the book examines the key issue of maintaining safety as preservation methods become more varied and complex. The rest of the book looks both at individual technologies and how they are combined to achieve the right balance of safety, quality and shelf-life for particular products. - Provides an authoritative review of the development of new and old food preservation technologies and the ways they can be combined to preserve particular foods - Examines the emergence of a new generation of natural preservatives in response to consumer concerns about synthetic additives - Includes chapters on natural antimicrobials, bacteriocins and antimicrobial enzymes, as well as developments in membrane filtration, ultrasound and high hydrostatic pressure
Advances in Food Applications for High Pressure Processing Technology
This Brief provides an overview of commercially successful current applications of high pressure processing (HPP) non-thermal technology. In recent years, HPP has gained acceptance in the industry for its use in the development of nutritious clean label food products which meet modern demands from health-conscious consumers. HPP products are now commercially available in many countries, and more than 400 HPP industrial equipment installations are currently in operation. Advances in Food Applications for High Pressure Processing Technology offers an in-depth discussion of recent applications of HPP for different food commodities, including fruit juices, vegetable and fruit products, meat products, ready-to-eat meals, avocado products, dairy products, dips and condiments, wet salads and sandwich fillings, fermented products and baby and infant foods.
