Advances in Food Processing (Food Preservation, Food Safety, Quality and Manufacturing Processes)

Nanotechnology in Food Industry; Advances in Food processing, Packaging and Food Safety

Nanotechnology is emerging as a rapidly growing field with its wide application in science and technology for manufacturing of new materials at nanoscale level (Albrecht et al., 2006). This technology gained a tremendous impetus due to its capability of reformulating metals into new nanosized particles, with dimension less than 100 nm in size. Due to nanoparticle size, their physio-chemical pro...

The humerus is often used to assess skeletal health in laying hens. It usually contains an airsac in the central cavity, but studies have demonstrated that the humeri of some hens do contain medullary bone. This study used radiographs to compare the incidence of increased radiodensity in the central cavity of humeri between lines of highproducing non-commercial laying hens. Hens of six lines (n...

Food Quality and Safety

Irradiation’ and its Potential to Food Preservation

In spite of the technologies developed during the last decade, the level of food loss is still high and is reported in many countries. According to the United Nations, more than 30 per cent of the mortality rate world-wide is caused by alimentary diseases. The desire of most countries to make food safer for consumption requires better food preservation and production techniques. In this regard,...
