DOWNLOAD EBOOKFruits are an important part of a balanced diet because of their high content in vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and bioactive compounds. Since the shelf life of fruits is limited due to microbiological, biochemical, and enzymatic reactions, processing and preservation are necessary to ensure food safety and year round availability. The present thesis aimed to investigate the effects of commonly used processing methods for fruit juice and puree production such as thermal pasteurization, alternative pasteurization (HPP, PEF), ultrasonication, and spray drying on the stability of carotenoids in goldenberry (Physalis peruviana L.) and orange (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck). This thesis reveals the potential of ultrasonication as a homogenization technology that could be applied in the fruit juice industry in combination with pasteurization for the improved production of fruit juices and purees rich in potentially bioavailable carotenoids. Moreover, in comparison to commonly used carrier agents for spray drying, cellobiose showed a high potential for the application as innovative carrier material to obtain fruit juice powders with good physicochemical properties while preserving valuable constituents such as carotenoids.

ISBN-13: 1493923560
DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis comprehensive treatise provides a systemic and insightful overview of current advances in the biosynthetic genomics/genetics and preventive dietetics of carotenoids, flavonoids and betalains, from a general perspective, and in specific fruits and vegetables as well. Genomics/genetics focuses on what and how enzymatic and regulatory genes are involved in pigment biosynthesis. Dietetics emphasizes how these pigments contribute nutritional/medical benefits to health, prevent diseases, and act as potential nutraceuticals in the diet. The goal is to provide research scientists, nutrition specialists, healthy food advocates, students, and rainbow food (fruit and vegetable) lovers with an integrated resource on the biosynthetic and dietetic mechanisms of these pigments.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCarotenoids as Colorants and Vitamin A Precursors: Technological and Nutritional Applications presents the application of carotenoids to food and to the feed of animals, poultry, fish, and birds. This book discusses the use of carotenoids in medicine, in the coloring of cosmetic and pharmaceutical products, and their unique role as photoconductors. Organized into 10 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the growing preference for natural-type colors in countries around the world. This text then examines the potential level of use of various carotenoids in a variety of foods. Other chapters consider the types of carotenoids that are added to the diet of aquatic animals, which should be selected according to the species because of varying biosynthetic capabilities and expected final pigment content. This book discusses as well the mechanisms that control the assimilation and absorption of some carotenoids. The final chapter deals with determination of vitamin A value. This book is a valuable resource for industrial chemists and aquaculturists.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this second edition of Natural Food Colorants two new chapters have been added and we have taken the opportunity to revise all the other chapters. Each of the original authors have brought up to date their individual contributions, involving in several cases an expansion to the text by the addition of new material. The new chapters are on the role of biotechnology in food colorant production and on safety in natural colorants, two areas which have undergone considerable change and development in the past five years. We have also persuaded the publishers to indulge in a display of colours by including illustrations of the majority of pigments of importance to the food industry. Finally we have rearranged the order of the chapters to reflect a more logical sequence. We hope this new edition will be greeted as enthusiastically as the first. It remains for us, as editors, to thank our contributors for undertaking the revisions with such thoroughness and to thank Blackie A&P for their support and considerable patience. G. A. F. R. J. D.
