Food processing is the transformation of agricultural products into food, or of one form of food into other forms. Food processing takes many forms, from grinding grain into raw flour , home cooking , and complex industrial methods used in the making of convenience foods .
Food preservation includes processes that make food more resistant to microorganism growth and slow the oxidation of fats. This slows down the decomposition and rancidification process. Food preservation may also include processes that inhibit visual deterioration, such as the enzymatic browning reaction in apples after they are cut during food ...
The Journal of Food Science and Technology is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering food science and food technology.It was established in 1964 and is published by Springer Science+Business Media on behalf of the Association of Food Scientists and Technologists of India, of which it is the official journal.
Extrusion in food processing consists of forcing soft mixed ingredients through an opening in a perforated plate or die designed to produce the required shape. The extruded food is then cut to a specific size by blades. The machine which forces the mix through the die is an extruder, and the mix is known as the extrudate. The extruder is ...
Food scientists working in Australia A food science laboratory. Food science (or bromatology [1]) is the basic science and applied science of food; its scope starts at overlap with agricultural science and nutritional science and leads through the scientific aspects of food safety and food processing, informing the development of food technology.
The journal only publishes novel, high quality and high impact review papers, original research papers and short communications, in the various disciplines encompassing the science, technology of food and its allied sciences. It has been developed to create a truly international forum for the communication of research in food and allied sciences.
