Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La evaluacion sensorial de los alimentos es una funcion primaria del hombre: desde su infancia y de una forma consciente, acepta o rechaza los alimentos de acuerdo con las sensaciones que experimenta al consumirlos. De esta forma, se establecen unos criterios para la seleccion de los alimentos, criterios que inciden sobre una de las facetas de la calidad global del alimento, la calidad sensorial. La evaluacion de esta calidad se lleva a cabo mediante una disciplina cientifica, el anilisis sensorial, cuyo instrumento de medida es el propio hombre.Las definiciones que se han establecido para el concepto de "anilisis sensorial" son diversas. Aqui se ofrecen algunas de ellas.Teniendo como objetivo que el estudiante analice la calidad de un alimento a traves de los organos de los sentidos y que correlacione el anilisis sensorial con los hibitos alimenticios con el anilisis fisicoquimico y con los problemas de aceptacion y rechazo por el consumidor.El presente texto, realizado por un grupo de expertos profesores de dilatada experiencia en el terreno del anilisis sensorial de los alimentos, responde a todos y cada uno de los requisistos que puede exigirse a una obra de consulta de este tipo: claridad, amenidad, rigor cientifico y actuaidad.

Download or read book Evaluaci n Sensorial de los Alimentos written by Julia Espinosa Manfugás and published by Editorial Universitaria (Cuba). This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Evaluación Sensorial es una disciplina científica mediante la cual se evalúan las propiedades organolépticas a través del uso de uno o más de los sentidos humanos. Mediante esta evaluación pueden clasificarse las materias primas y productos terminados, conocer que opina el consumidor sobre un determinado alimento, su aceptación o rechazo, así como su nivel de agrado, criterios estos que se tienen en cuenta en la formulación y desarrollo de los mismos. Son diversas las aplicaciones de esta ciencia, la cual desempeña un papel clave en el ciclo de vida de un producto, de ahí que no se concibe el análisis de un alimento, si no va aparejado de la evaluación de sus propiedades organolépticas mediante pruebas sensoriales, destacándose la importancia de dicha disciplina no sólo en la actualidad sino también en el futuro.

Download or read book Functional Food written by María Chávarri Hueda and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2017-08-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the concern of society about how food influences the health status of people has increased. Consumers are increasingly aware that food can prevent the development of certain diseases, so in recent years, the food industry is developing new, healthier products taking into account aspects such as trans fats, lower caloric intake, less salt, etc. However, there are bioactive compounds that can improve the beneficial effect of these foods and go beyond the nutritional value. This book provides information on impact of bioactive ingredients (vitamins, antioxidants, compounds of the pulses, etc.) on nutrition through food, how functional foods can prevent disease, and tools to evaluate the effects of bioactive ingredients, functional foods, and diet.

Download or read book Food Authentication written by Contantinos A. Georgiou and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-02-21 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The determination of food authenticity is a vital component of quality control. Its importance has been highlighted in recent years by high-profile cases in the global supply chain such as the European horsemeat scandal and the Chinese melamine scandal which led to six fatalities and the hospitalisation of thousands of infants. As well as being a safety concern, authenticity is also a quality criterion for food and food ingredients. Consumers and retailers demand that the products they purchase and sell are what they purport to be. This book covers the most advanced techniques used for the authentication of a vast number of products around the world. The reader will be informed about the latest pertinent analytical techniques. Chapters focus on the novel techniques & markers that have emerged in recent years. An introductory section presents the concepts of food authentication while the second section examines in detail the analytical techniques for the detection of fraud relating to geographical, botanical, species and processing origin and production methods of food materials and ingredients. Finally, the third section looks at consumer attitudes towards food authenticity, the application of bioinformatics to this field, and the Editor’s conclusions and future outlook. Beyond being a reference to researchers working in food authentication it will serve as an essential source to analytical scientists interested in the field and food scientists to appreciate analytical approaches. This book will be a companion to under- and postgraduate students in their wander in food authentication and aims to be useful to researchers in universities and research institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South American camelids (Llamas, Alpacas, Vicuñas and Guanacos) are receiving increased interest not only in South America but also on a worldwide scale. They possess some unique features such as their fine fibre and healthy meat, and their high adaptivity to many climatic regions across the world. Apart from the important productive aspects, their physical attractiveness and friendly temperament also makes them popular as pet animals. There are still many gaps in the scientific literature with regard to South American camelids. In part, this gap can be diminished by this collection of papers which brings the experience of both European and South American researchers working together. The main themes considered in this book are the following: nutrition and feeding, meat production and the meat market, ecology, fibre production and the fibre market, animal breeding, animal health and pathology and socio-economical aspects. The particular advantages of South American camelids for the sustainable use of fragile ecosystems with native pastures are also outlined. 'South American camelids research' is aimed at scientists and animal breeders as well as students studying veterinary, animal and applied biological sciences. It can be of further reference to farmers and traders of fibre and meat products. Please note that most articles are written in Spanish.

Download or read book Pot Honey written by Patricia Vit and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 655 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stingless bees are one of the most diverse, attractive, fascinating, conspicuous and useful of all the insect groups of the tropical world. This is a formidable and contentious claim but I believe it can be backed up. They are fifty times more species rich than the honey bees, the other tribe of highly eusocial bees. They are ubiquitous in the tropics and thrive in tropical cities. In rural areas, they nest in a diversity of sites and are found on the flowers of a broad diversity of crop plants. Their role in natural systems is barely studied but they almost certainly deserve that hallowed title of keystone species. They are popular with the general public and are greatly appreciated in zoos and gardens. The chapters of this book provide abundant further evidence of the ecological and economic importance of stingless bees.
