Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries man has treated food to prolong its edible life, and nowadays both traditional and modern preservatives are used widely to ensure the satisfactory maintenance of quality and safety of foods. There continues to be increased public concern about the use of food additives, including preservatives, resulting from a perception that some of them may have deleterious effects on health. However, as eating habits have changed with an emphasis on what has been popularly termed a `healthy diet', there is at the same time a concern that reduction in preservative usage could lead to loss of safety and protection from food poisoning. While some preservatives are coming under increasing regulatory pressure others, particularly more natural ones, are receiving increased attention and gaining in importance and acceptability. This book supports the continued safe and effective use of preservatives within these current constraints. It therefore gives detailed information on the practical use of the major antimicrobial preservatives. Uniquely, it couples this with current understanding of their modes of action, at the levels of cellular physiology and biochemistry, in such a way as to provide a sound scientific basis for their efficacy. Such an approach also encourages the future logical development and use of preservatives.

Download or read book Antimicrobial Food Additives written by Erich Lück and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chemical preservation of food plays an essential role in both food science and the food processing industry. Despite its importance, however, information has remained dispersed in journals and handbooks. Now, the two authors, both leading research scientists at Hoechst, provide the first comprehensive overview of all aspects of food preservation by chemical techniques. The first sections deal with general aspects of importance to all preservatives, while special chapters concentrate on the properties and uses of industrial preservatives. Of special interest is the comprehensive listing of the English, French, Italian, Spanish and Russian trade names of these chemical additives. Although completely revised and enlarged, this book is based on the 3rd German edition of Chemische Lebensmittelkonservierung by the same authors, and its detailed and practice-oriented explanations make this a valuable source of information for food specialists in industry, government authorities and nutritional science.

Download or read book Essential Guide to Food Additives written by Mike Saltmarsh and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2019-08-01 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food additives have played and still play an essential role in the food industry. Additives span a great range from simple materials like sodium bicarbonate, essential in the kitchen for making cakes, to mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, an essential emulsifier in low fat spreads and in bread. It has been popular to criticise food additives, and in so doing, to lump them all together, but this approach ignores their diversity of history, source and use. This book includes food additives and why they are used, safety of food additives in Europe, additive legislation within the EU and outside Europe and the complete listing of all additives permitted in the EU. The law covering food additives in the EU which was first harmonised in 1989 has been amended frequently since then, but has now been consolidated with the publication of Regulations 1331/2008 and 1129/2011. This 4th edition of the Guide brings it up to date with the changes introduced by this legislation and by the ongoing review of additives by EFSA. Providing an invaluable resource for food and drink manufacturers, this book is the only work covering in detail every additive, its sources and uses. Those working in and around the food industry, students of food science and indeed anyone with an interest in what is added to their food will find this a practical book full of fascinating details.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’agroalimentaire est très riche en produits conditionnés sous forme d’émulsions ou de mousses, comme le lait et ses dérivés, la margarine ou la mayonnaise. Il existe une grande diversité dans les émulsions alimentaires, tant au niveau de leurs propriétés physico-chimiques que de leurs caractéristiques organoleptiques. Ceci est le résultat d’une forte interaction entre les ingrédients et les procédés de mise en œuvre dans ce que l’on pourrait appeler « le génie de la formulation ». Celui-ci intègre les différentes sciences nécessaires à la maîtrise de la qualité des produits, parmi lesquelles la biochimie, le génie des procédés, la physico-chimie et la rhéologie. Cet ouvrage traite des différents aspects des émulsions et des mousses en agroalimentaire, en abordant les généralités concernant la formulation et les caractéristiques des ingrédients utilisés pour obtenir les propriétés d’usage requises. Pour illustrer le propos, les exemples traités sont liés aux filières des boissons, du lait et des œufs.

This book was released on 2012-09-12 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemistry of Food Additives and Preservatives Food additives are chemicals or ingredients that are added to food during processing to improve quality, flavour, appearance or nutritional value, or to prevent chemical or microbial spoilage. The most common types of additives are preservatives, colourants, sweeteners, flavourings, emulsifiers, thickeners and stabilisers. Adding new ingredients to a food has an effect upon its chemistry and structure as well as its sensory characteristics. Additives are usually characterised by where they come from (for example, whether they are natural or synthetic), by their purpose (such as improving shelf life) and the risks associated with them (such as their toxicity, and any side effects upon the consumer). Although in recent years the trend in consumer marketing has been to trumpet a lack of additives and preservatives, with ‘artificial ingredients’ commonly seen in a negative light, there nevertheless remains a wide variety of additives and preservatives that are crucial both to producers and consumers, without which the quality of the food would suffer. Chemistry of Food Additives and Preservatives is an up-to-date reference guide to the wide range of different types of additives used in the food industry today. It looks at the processes involved in adding preservatives and additives to foods, and the mechanisms and methods used. The book provides full details about the chemistry of each major class of food additive, showing the reader not just what kind of additives are used and what their functions are, but also how they work, and how they may have multiple functionalities. This book also covers numerous new additives currently being introduced, how the quality of these is ascertained, and how consumer safety is ensured. Chemistry of Food Additives and Preservatives is an ideal reference for food chemists, food safety specialists and agencies, food processors who are working with additives and preservatives, and food regulators and policy makers. Written in an accessible style and covering a broad range of food additives and preservatives, the book offers an in-depth analysis of the chemical interactions of food additives and preservatives with the natural composition of the foods to which they are added. It is a unique and ground-breaking treatment of a topic vital to both the food industry and the researcher.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My professional interest in antimicrobial agents and contamination control goes back 50 years to my tour as a microbiologist in a field hospital in Europe during World War II. With no experience and relying solely on a military handbook, I prepared thermometer trays with jars of blue bichloride of mercury and pink isopropyl alcohol. A preliminary typhoid diagnosis of one of our cooks resulted in the need for lab testing. His stool specimen and its subsequent disposal was my problem. My handbook said bum it. So burn it T did, in a five-gallon can with gasoline. Flames shot up almost six feet, and my next mistake was to extinguish them with carbon tetrachloride. This resulted in the production of lethal phosgene gas. The hospital had a near disaster. I could say that at that moment I vowed to write a how-to book so that such stupidities could be avoided. Nevertheless, when I was offered the opportunity to edit this book I thought back on the need for a real, practical treatment of my subject. This book, then, is a practical handbook for technical service personnel and scientists who are not necessarily specialists in microbiology. It provides information on suitable antimicrobial agents appropriate to their particular problem-solving needs and information on the microbial groups contributing to the specific problem, their ecologies, and strategies for controlling their access to the area or material of interest.

This book was released on 1999-04-29 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Institute of Medicine's (IOM's) Food Forum was established in 1993 to allow science and technology leaders in the food industry, top administrators in the federal government, representatives from consumer interest groups, and academicians to discuss and debate food and food safety issues openly and in a neutral setting. The Forum provides a mechanism for these diverse groups to identify possible approaches for addressing food and food safety problems and issues surrounding the often complex interactions among industry, academia, regulatory agencies, and consumers. On May 6-7, 1997, the Forum convened a workshop titled Enhancing the Regulatory Decision-Making Process for Direct Food Ingredient Technologies. Workshop speakers and participants discussed legal aspects of the direct food additive approval process, changes in science and technology, and opportunities for reform. Two background papers, which can be found in Appendix A and B, were shared with the participants prior to the workshop. The first paper provided a description and history of the legal framework of the food ingredient approval process and the second paper focused on changes in science and technology practices with emphasis placed on lessons learned from case studies. This document presents a summary of the workshop.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La croissance démographique de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, ses conséquences sur la croissance urbaine et les crises socio-politiques récurrentes ont complètement modifié les conditions de production et de consommation alimentaire dans la sous-région. La demande en nourriture dans les principaux centres urbains est devenue exponentielle, avec une forte dépendance du marché international. Cette demande ne concerne plus seulement les produits alimentaires à l'état brut, elle porte aussi sur les denrées transformées telles que les conserves alimentaires, les produits congelés et les huiles végétales. Par rapport à cette demande forte en aliments de base, les populations ouest-africaines cherchent elles-mêmes à s'adapter en mettant davantage l'accent sur des innovations. Celles-ci concernent à la fois les nouvelles cultures pratiquées, dont notamment un développement extraordinaire de l'agriculture périurbaine, la conception de nouveaux aliments et l'évolution des anciens mets traditionnels. Ces innovations concernent aussi la façon de présenter ces nouveaux mets aux consommateurs urbains. Ainsi, le faible pouvoir d'achat des populations urbaines entraîne désormais le développement extraordinaire des aliments de rue, en lieu et place de la restauration moderne où le coût des aliments reste élevé. Ce livre étudie ces diverses innovations à travers les expériences de transformation et de présentation des aliments prêts à être consommés, il évoque aussi les risques liés à ces innovations. L'ouvrage est structuré en quatre chapitres ayant trait à des études de cas centrées sur le Burkina Faso, le Ghana et la Côte d'Ivoire.
