Glucosinolates: Properties, Recovery & Applications covers all the important aspects of glucosinolates (properties, processing and recovery issues, particular applications). Starting from the metabolism, health effects and biosynthesis of glucosinolates in the first chapters, the book deals with recovery, analysis and processing issues in order to reveal the potential applications of glucosinolates that are discussed in details in the last chapters. Bringing the latest advances in the field, thoroughly explored by the editor over the last decade, the book also covers practical approaches and applications, giving emphasis in their diversity in plants, the debate of good and bad glucosinolates, biosynthetic pathways and metabolism, beneficial health effects, the influence of the food supply chain on the decomposition and intake of glycosinolates, the sustainable sources of glucosinolates, processing and cooking effects, analysis, recovery technologies and stability of glucosinolates, applications in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and animal feeding sectors. Written by a team of chemists, biochemists, food scientists and technologists, Glucosinolates: Properties, Recovery and Applications is a helpful resource for anyone dealing with food science and technology, new products development both in the food, natural products and health industries.
