Multifunctional and nanoreinforced polymers for food packaging
(ISBN 978-1-84569-738-9)
Multifunctional and nanoreinforced polymers for food packaging
provides a com-
prehensive review of polymers for use in packaging with more than one functional
purpose. Recent developments in multifunctional polymers and nanoreinforced poly-
mers provide the opportunity to produce active packaging, in addition to increasing
the shelf life of products. The book focuses on the materials science and engineering
of multifunctional polymers intended for use in food packaging.
Delivery and controlled release of bioactives in foods and nutraceuticals
(ISBN 978-1-84569-145-5)
Active ingredients in foods must remain fully functional for as long as necessary and
be transported and discharged appropriately to have the desired nutritional effect.
Controlled release and delivery systems are a method to achieve these aims. Edited by a
leading expert in the field, this collection discusses materials and techniques for the con-
trolled release and delivery of nutraceuticals. Opening chapters review factors affecting
nutrient bioavailability and methods to test delivery system efficacy. Part II addresses
materials used and specific techniques, such as nanoemulsions. The final chapters focus
on the delivery of particular nutraceuticals, such as vitamins and probiotics.
Understanding and controlling the microstructure of complex foods
(ISBN 978-1-84569-151-6)
Awareness of the interrelationship between the nanoscopic, microscopic and macro-
scopic features of foods and their bulk physiochemical properties, sensory attributes
and healthfulness is increasing. It is now widely recognised that creation of novel
foods or improvement of existing products largely depends on a better understand-
ing of this complex interrelationship. This important collection presents an under-
standing of significant aspects of food structure and methods for its control. The
main structural elements in foods, their interactions and newer analytical techniques
for structure assessment are reviewed. Following chapters then discuss the use of
structural design principles in product development and structural issues in particular
foods, such as ice cream and chocolate.
