The information was prepared by a team of food scientists from around the world and is based on the current international literature as well as the authors' expertise. The text is organized for easy reference, supplemented with numerous data tables, and illustrated by more than 40 schematics.
Everybody expects food to be palatable, nutritious, and wholesome. These attributes are affected by the composition of the food, as well as by the properties and interactions of the constituents. They can be controlled by the recipe of the formulation, the conditions of storage and processing, and the enzymatic or chemical modifications of the components, mainly lipids, proteins, saccharides, and vitamins. The effectiveness of control depends on the understanding of the chemical and functional properties of the food components. Thus, food chemistry is a must for food technologists and for other technical personnel involved in food handling.
Each chapter ends with a section of references.
