Emerging Technologies for Food Quality and Food Safety Evaluation - Bog

Introducing state-of-the-art technology and emerging systems for the quantitative evaluation and definite measurement of food quality and safety, this book begins with a review of the concept and scope of food quality parameters such as color, texture, chemical compositions, and flavor. Each chapter deals with a specific system for quality parameters describing the principles related to each and its applications to foods. Coverage includes artificial intelligence systems for sensory evaluation, as well as computer vision; NIR, NMR and MRI; sonic and ultrasonic systems; multi-spectral and hyper-spectral imaging systems; electronic nose; biosensors; and the use of nanotechnology.
