Synopsis

An Aspen Food Engineering Series Book. This new edition provides a comprehensive reference on food microstructure, emphasizing its interdisciplinary nature, rooted in the scientific principles of food materials science and physical chemistry. The book details the techniques available to study food microstructure, examines the microstructure of basic food components and its relation to quality, and explores how microstructure is affected by specific unit operations in food process engineering. Descriptions of a number of food-related applications provide a better understanding of the complexities of the microstructural approach to food processing. Color plates.

Synopsis

Aguilera (chemical and food engineering, Universidad Cat=lica de Chile, Santiago) and Stanley (retired, U. of Guelph, Canada) describe an approach to food science that is gaining acceptance as scientists increasing attribute properties and phenomena occurring in foods to roots at the microstructural level. They contend that combining microscopy wit
