It involves the application of concepts from disciplines such as chemistry, engineering, microbiology, and nutrition in order to improve the safety, nutrition, and availability of food. Some of the major areas of study within this discipline are water, lipids and carbohydrates. Water is present in most food items, and offers a favorable environment for bacterial growth. Therefore, in order to increase the shelf life of a product, the amount of water can be altered using processes such as freezing, dehydration and refrigeration. This book attempts to explore the concepts, technology and applications of food chemistry. A number of latest researches have been included to keep the readers up-to-date with the latest developments in this area of study. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and experts alike and contribute in the growth of the discipline.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Jordan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1639877258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781639877256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Murphy \u0026amp; Moore Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/19\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 243\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.56d","brand":"Lisa Jordan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45476910039295,"sku":"9781639877256","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3fb10e2-03e6-4e84-8c41-b21ce39117c0.jpg?v=1715918512","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/food-chemistry-lisa-jordan-9781639877256","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
