Описание: Algae have been used since ancient times as food, fodder, fertilizer and as source of medicine. Nowadays seaweeds represent an unlimited source of the raw materials used in pharmaceutical, food industries, medicine and cosmetics. They are nutritionally valuable as fresh or dried vegetables, or as ingredients in a wide variety of prepared foods. In particular, seaweeds contain significant quantities of protein, lipids, minerals and vitamins. There is limited information about the role of algae and algal metabolites in medicine. Only a few taxa have been studied for their use in medicine. Many traditional cultures report curative powers from selected alga, in particular tropical and subtropical marine forms. This is especially true in the maritime areas of Asia, where the sea plays a significant role in daily activities. Nonetheless, at present, only a few genera and species of algae are involved in aspects of medicine and therapy. Beneficial uses of algae or algal products include those that may mimic specific manifestations of human diseases, production of antibiotic compounds, or improvement of human nutrition in obstetrics, dental research, thallassotherapy, and forensic medicine.

Описание:
Food processing is expected to affect content, activity and bioavailability of nutrients; the health-promoting capacity of food products depends on their processing history. Traditional technologies, such as the use of antimicrobials and thermal processing, are efficient in increasing nutritional value to an extent, though they may not be effective at addressing food safety, particularly when it comes to maintaining the food's molecular structure. Modern food processing plants improve the quality of life for people with allergies, diabetics, and others who cannot consume some common food elements. Food processing can also add extra nutrients, such as vitamins. Processed foods are often less susceptible to early spoilage than fresh foods and are better suited for long-distance transportation from the source to the consumer. However, food processing can also decrease the nutritional value of foods and introduce hazards not encountered with naturally occurring products. Processed foods often include food additives, such as flavourings and texture-enhancing agents, which may have little or no nutritive value, and may in fact be unhealthy.
This book deals with the subject of food processing in a unique way, providing an overview not only of current techniques in food processing and preservation (i.e., dairy, meat, cereal, vegetables, fruits and juice processing, etc.) but also the health and safety aspects: food technologies that improve nutritional quality of foods, functional foods, and nanotechnology in the food and agriculture industry. The text also looks into the future by defining current bottlenecks and future research goals. This work will serve as a ready reference for the subject matter to students and researchers alike.

Описание: Meat and meat products have been consumed by humankind throughout time, and the rise of industrialization and mass production in the past century has made them more affordable and available. At the same time, meat and meat products have been blamed for causing cancer and degenerative diseases. Information regarding this has been often blatantly controversial, leading to misinterpretation, uncertainty, and fake news. Rethinking the role of meat in human nutrition is a present challenge for the food industry. To address this, we must look towards green and clean technologies that adhere to the fundamental principles of environmental care. This book includes comprehensive reviews of hot topics relating to meat products. The reader will find current information and scientific evidence about emerging technologies, modern trends and future perspectives on the subject, with emphasis placed on chemical and health aspects. The COVID-19 pandemic has proved that we cannot continue with business as usual. The inevitable consequences of "the old normal" (zoonotic disease, antimicrobial resistance, climate change and food insecurity) will not revert. As we move into the next decade and beyond, we need a more healthy, sustainable and fair food system. This book aims to contribute to build a better scenario for subsequent consumer generations. Today more than ever, food scientists are leading actors in the international scene.

Chapter 1 Management of Food Safety and Hygiene: An Overview
Food is a basic human need. Its safety and nutritional quality play a fundamental role in the health of people. The Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC), the international body which sets standards for foods, defines food hygiene as "all conditions and measures necessary to ensure the safety and suitability of food at all stages of the food chain." The term food hygiene covers two concepts, i) food safety and ii) food suitability. According to the CAC, food safety is "the assurance that food will not cause harm to the consumer, when it is prepared and eaten according to its intended use", whereas food suitability is the "assurance that food is acceptable for human consumption according to its intended use. Food safety constitutes one of the most fundamental and vital aspects of any food operation. However ensuring food safety in the present era has become a difficult task as plethora of chemical, physical and biological agents may contaminate the food supply and threaten public health as well as food business. Today there is adequate scientific and technical knowledge, technological means and managerial experience to ensure the safety of products. Presently concepts like Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) and risk analysis have been well developed and integrated in the management of food safety and hygiene at national and international level. In this chapter significance of food hygiene, and food safety and various approaches for their management has been reviewed.
Chapter 2 Food Contamination and Food Spoilage
The interaction of versatile nutrients present in food leads to several degradative chemical changes that deteriorate the quality and shelf life of food. The deteriorative changes are enhanced during contamination at various stages of processing, handling and storage. These changes include lipid oxidation, enzymatic or non-enzymatic browning, putrefaction and toxicity due to hazardous substances. Contamination occurs from various physical, chemical and biological sources, and is affected by external factors such as time-temperature combinations, poor hygiene and sanitation. Most of the contaminants are from natural sources but some are deliberately added. Recent food contaminants include veterinary drug residues, pesticides, undesirable fermentation products, nanoparticles, packaging materials and radionuclides. Contamination leads to spoilage of foods and may be due to the activity of microorganisms, action of enzymes, chemical reactions (harmful additives, mycotoxins, bacterial toxins and radiations) and physical changes (caused by freezing, burning, drying, pressure). Of all the causes of spoilage, microbiological cause plays a decisive role. Spoilage is enhanced by various extrinsic and intrinsic factors (pH, redox potential, water activity and the presence of antimicrobial substances in a food material). The characteristics of the environment in which the food is maintained, such as temperature, atmosphere and relative humidity also affect food spoilage. Spoilage changes nitrogenous organic compounds of food into alpha keto acid, ammonia, propionic acid, amides, imides, and urea. Complex carbohydrates are hydrolysed to simple sugars by fermentation. Organic acids are oxidized to carbonates causing the medium to become more alkaline. Consumption of such contaminated and spoiled food can lead to various food borne illnesses and intoxication. Therefore, this necessitates the implementation of food hygiene during processing and storage; and also the incorporation of food authentication techniques such as biosensors, aptasensors, spectroscopy techniques in tandem with chemometrics analytical approaches for quantitative assessment of food spoilage. In this chapter, how are food spoilage being regulated, food contamination, the importance of personal hygiene, good
