Handbook on Natural Pigments in Food and Beverages: Industrial Applications for Improving Color, Second Edition focuses on a color solution for a specific commodity, providing food scientists with a one-stop, comprehensive reference on how to improve the color of a particular food product. The book includes two new chapters that highlight the physical and biological fundamentals of color, as well as the specific use of curcumin and carthamin. Sections focus on specific industrial applications of natural colorants, with chapters covering the use of natural colorants in a variety of products. Other sections highlight technical formulation and potential health benefits of specific colorants.

Various pigments which can be used to effectively color food and beverage commodities are presented with information on safety and testing throughout.

Ralf Schweiggert is the Head of the Institute of Beverage Research and Full Professor (W3) of the Chair of Plant Food Technology and Analysis of Geisenheim University. The main research interests of his workgroup are plant pigments, e.g., the elucidation of their structure, their stabilization for food applications, their antioxidant activity, and their bioavailability in humans. He has conducted several research stays at the Universidad de Costa Rica and the Ohio State University. His research and Ph.D. thesis was awarded the Baumann-Gonser-Research Award, the research award of the German Association for Quality Research, and the Professor Wild Award of the University of Hohenheim.
