(Current and Future Developments in Food Science)
by Merichel Plaza, María Luisa Marina
This book aims to inform readers about the latest trends in environment-friendly extraction techniques in food analysis. Fourteen edited chapters cover relevant topics. These topics include a primer green food analysis and extraction, environment-friendly solvents, (such as deep eutectic solvents, ionic liquids, and supramolecular solvents), and different extraction techniques.
Key Features
- Includes topics for basic and advanced readers.
- Covers a wide range of green solvents for food analysis.
- Emphasizes modern extraction techniques (including supercritical fluid extraction, the gas expanded liquid extraction, pressurized liquid extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, pulse electric field extraction).
- Provides notes on the selection of solvents.
- Includes references for every chapter The blend of fundamental and applied information makes this an ideal reference for food chemistry students and research scholars.
It also serves as a guide for professional experts working in food analysis and sustainability roles.
