Natural Food Preservatives

Natural Food Preservatives

Safety quality and prolonged shelf life of food products are the three most important aspects of the food industry. To ensure a satisfactory scale both traditional and modern preservatives are widely used. However as eating habits have upgraded with a focus on what is popularly termed a healthy diet there has been a growing demand for food with natural additives over synthetic ingredients. As a result there have been major developments in the field of food preservation which are presented in this book. The book provides detailed information on the range of natural food preservatives with their applications in different product sectors. It delves into microbiological food spoilage and discusses natural food preservatives as well as natural antioxidants and antimicrobials as food ingredients. It reviews prevalent preservation technologies the chemistry behind them and new nonconventional preservatives. It focuses on innovative technologies including biological antimicrobial systems such as LABs or their metabolites bacteriophages and bacteriophage-encoded enzymes. It provides knowledge about preservatives such as bacteriocins and ε-polylysine as well as their usage in achieving the right balance of safety quality and shelf-life for specific products. The book is a collection of the research and experiences of an international team of experts and is a valuable tool for all those who are related to the advancements and production of safe and healthy foods. It is a significant reference book for professionals who teach food microbiology courses conduct research and epidemiologic investigations analyze food samples and craft food safety policies.

Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy

Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy

In the past three decades great efforts have been made to develop new methods for the extraction of natural molecules. Improved extraction technologies have garnered scientific interest as they have helped in understanding how mass and energy transfer exhibited for a solvent and solute during a chemical extraction can be used as physical chemistry parameters leading to the modeling and design of new advantageous equipment. In situ data collected during a chemically assisted experiment is useful in a variety of scientific and technological applications especially in generating extractors that are safer more efficient and offer true opportunities to scale them up in a wide range of materials (among stainless steel). This book compiles empirical and traditional extraction methods applied to cutting-edge critical extraction research in the areas of food science phytochemistry pharmacy fragrance cosmetology and folk medicine. It presents extraction technology as an interdisciplinary area that applies the principles of physics and chemistry as tools to develop engineered models for the construction of more advanced extraction devices. It includes examples and problems related to data treatment in normal laboratory research work that will facilitate undergraduate- and graduate-level students as well as operators working in the area in solving real problems. | Semi-Critical Assisted Extraction Applications and Commercialization in Biotechnology Food and Pharmacy

Nanomaterials in Architecture and Art Conservation

Nanomaterials in Architecture and Art Conservation

The conservation and protection of buildings that constitute our cultural heritage are complex tasks calling for a comprehensive knowledge of the historical background of the buildings as well as the construction technologies and materials used. Nanomaterials in Architecture and Art Conservation gives a comprehensive overview of the state of the art of using nanomaterials in conservation sciences mainly for stone mortar and plaster strengthening but also for the consolidation of wall paintings. The book compiles and details deterioration mechanisms of stone and historical mortars as well as methods of characterising and testing consolidation effects. The non- or semi-destructive characterisation methods that will be presented allow additional measurements to characterise objects before and after any interventions. Besides general aspects of inorganic consolidants are targeted. The focus in particular is the application of nanolime as a new consolidation agent. Basic characteristics and application advices as well as beneficial combinations with other consolidation agents such as silicic acid esters are emphasised. What makes this book so special is the large number of practical applications described from the viewpoint of different restorers offering a direct inside view of the procedure for the conservation of historical monuments. Restorers dealing with stone mortar and plaster conservation; artists; advanced undergraduate- and graduate-level students of conservation science art and nanotechnology; offices for the protection of monuments and heritage agencies; and researchers in materials science conservation nanotechnology and chemistry especially those with an interest in applied sciences will find this book a great reference.

Immunoassays Development Applications and Future Trends

Immunoassays Development Applications and Future Trends

The concept behind this book is to provide a detailed and practical overview of the development and use of immunoassays in many different areas. Immunoassays are analytical tests that utilise antibodies to measure the amount activity or identity of an analyte. This book is designed to provide a critical and helpful insight into the subject and to give the user practical information that may be of assistance in assay format selection antibody generation/selection and choice of appropriate detection strategies. It is comprised of 13 chapters written by highly experienced researchers in the fields of antibody-based research immunoassay development assay validation diagnostics and microfluidics. Beginning with a comprehensive survey of antibodies immunoassay formats and signalling systems the book elucidates key topics related to the development of an ideal antibody-based sensor focuses on the important topic of surface modification explores key parameters in the immobilisation of antibodies onto solid surfaces discusses the move to ‘lab-on-a-chip’-based devices and investigates the key parameters necessary for their development. Three of the chapters are dedicated to the areas of clinical diagnostics infectious disease monitoring and food security where immunoassay-based applications have become highly valuable tools. The future of immunoassays including next-generation immunoassays electrochemical-immunoassays and ‘lab-on-a-chip’-based systems is also discussed. The book also covers the use of optical detection systems (with a focus on surface plasmon resonance) in immunoassays provides a compilation of important routinely used immunoassay protocols and addresses problems that may be encountered during assay development. | Immunoassays Development Applications and Future Trends
