The Handbook of Research on Food Processing and Preservation Technologies is a rich 5-volume collection that illustrates various design, development, and applications of novel and innovative strategies for food processing and preservation. The roles and applications of minimal processing techniques (such as ozone treatment, vacuum drying, osmotic dehydration, dense phase carbon dioxide treatment, pulsed electric field, and high-pressure assisted freezing) are discussed, along with a wide range of other applications. The handbook also explores some exciting computer-aided techniques emerging in the food processing sector, such as robotics, radio frequency identification (RFID), three-dimensional food printing, artificial intelligence, etc. Some emphasis has also been given on nondestructive quality evaluation techniques (such as image processing, terahertz spectroscopy imaging technique, near infrared, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy technique, etc.) for food quality and safety evaluation. The significant roles of food properties in the design of specific foods and edible films have been elucidated as well.

Volume 3: Computer-Aided Food Processing and Quality Evaluation Techniques of the multi-volume set reports on a number of applications of computer-aided techniques for quality evaluation and to secure food quality. The chapter authors present emerging nonthermal approaches for food processing and preservation including a detailed discussion on color measurement techniques, RFID, 3D-food printing, potential of robotics, artificial intelligence, terahertz spectroscopy imaging technique, instrumentation techniques and transducers, food labeling as marketing and quality assurance tool, detection of pesticides, mathematical simulation of moisture sorption in food products, numerical methods and modeling techniques, concept of phase change materials, and dielectric properties of animal source foods.

Other volumes in the set include:

Volume 1: Nonthermal and Innovative Food Processing Methods

Volume 2: Nonthermal Food Preservation and Novel Processing Strategies

Volume 3: Computer-Aided Food Processing and Quality Evaluation Techniques

Volume 4: Design and Development of Specific Foods, Packaging Systems, and Food Safety

Volume 5: Emerging Techniques for Food Processing, Quality, and Safety Assurance

Along with the other volumes, Handbook of Research on Food Processing and Preservation Technologies provides an abundance of valuable information and will be an excellent reference for researchers, scientists, students, growers, traders, processors, industries, and others.

Handbook of Dairy Foods Analysis
<p>Dairy foods account for a large portion of the Western diet, but due to the potential diversity of their sources, this food group often poses a challenge for food scientists and their research efforts. Bringing together the foremost minds in dairy research, <b><i>Handbook of Dairy Foods Analysis, Second Edition, </i></b> compiles the top dairy analysis techniques and methodologies from around the world into one well-organized volume. </p><p>Exceptionally comprehensive in both its detailing of methods and the range of dairy products covered, this handbook includes tools for analyzing chemical and biochemical compounds and also bioactive peptides, prebiotics, and probiotics. It describes noninvasive chemical and physical sensors and starter cultures used in quality control. </p><p>This second edition includes four brand-new chapters covering the analytical techniques and methodologies for determining bioactive peptides, preservatives, activity of endogenous enzymes, and sensory perception of dairy foods, and all other chapters have been adapted to recent research. All <strong>other chapters have been thoroughly updated.</strong></p><p>Key Features: </p><ul> <ul> <p> </p> <li>Explains analytical tools available for the analysis of the chemistry and biochemistry of dairy foods</li> <p> </p> <li>Covers a variety of dairy foods including milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, and ice cream</li> <p> </p> <li>Analysis of nutritional quality includes prebiotics, probiotics, essential amino acids, bioactive peptides, and healthy vegetable-origin compounds</li> <p> </p> <li>Includes a series of chapters on analyzing sensory qualities, including color, texture, and flavor.</li> </ul> </ul><p><strong> <br><p>Covering the gamut of dairy analysis techniques, th</p></strong>e book discusses current methods for the analysis of chemical and nutritional compounds, and the detection of microorganisms, allergens, contaminants, and/or other adulterations, including those of environmental origin or introduced during processing. Other methodologies used to evaluate color, texture, and flavor are also discussed.<strong> <br><p>Written by an international panel of distinguished contributors</p></strong> under the editorial guidance of renowned authorities, Fidel Toldrá and Leo M.L. Nollet, this handbook is one of the few references that is completely devoted to dairy food analysis - an extremely valuable reference for those in the dairy research, processing, and manufacturing industries.</p>
