High Pressure Processing of Foods
High Pressure Processing of Foods
Author(s): DA Ledward, DE Johnston, RG Earnshaw and APM HastingAlthough the effects of high pressure on food materials was first researched over 100 years ago, only recently has the technology been commercially exploited. Numerous research studies have shown that high pressure processing offers exciting opportunities for the food and drink industry to improve the quality and profitability of existing products and to develop new concepts.
This book brings together important reviews on the effects of high pressure on microbiological, chemical and structural properties of foods and food ingredients, as well as discussing the engineering aspects of the process. It will be of value to students, researchers and all those in the food and drink industry who wish to update their knowledge in this area
