Food Structure and Functionality serves as a reference to further understand the latest research related to food structuring and de-structuring with an emphasis on structuring to achieve improved texture, taste perception, health, and shelf-stability. The book addresses topics from food structure, nanotechnology, and functionality, with emphasis on the novel experimental and modelling approaches used to link structure and functionality in food. The book also covers food structure design across the lifespan, as well as food structure design for healthcare and medical applications. Dairy matrices for oral and gut functionality and deconstructing dairy matrices for release of nutrient and flavor components are also discussed. This book will benefit food scientists, technologists, engineers and physical chemists working in the whole food science field; new product developers; researchers, academics and professionals working in the food industry, including nutritionists, dieticians, physicians; biochemists and biophysicists. Covers the recent trends in the field related to non-thermal processes, nanotechnology and modern food structures in the food industryBegins with an introduction to structure/function of food products and their characterization methodsAddresses biopolymer composites, interfacial layers in food emulsions, amyloid-like fibrillary structures, self-assembly in foods, lipid nano-carriers, microfluidics, rheology and function of hydrocolloidsDiscusses applications and the effects of emerging technologies on process, structure, and function relationships INDICE: 1.
