Advances in Processing Technologies for Bio-based Nanosystems in Food

English

Nanotechnology can be used to address challenges faced by the food and bioprocessing industries for developing and implementing improved or novel systems that can produce safer, nutritious, healthier, sustainable, and environmental-friendly food products. This book overviews the most recent advances made on the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology that significantly influenced the food industry. Advances in Processing Technologies for Bio-Based Nanosystems in Food provides a multidisciplinary review of the complex mechanisms involved in the research, development, production and legislation of food containing nanostructures systems.

Features:

  • Presents the most recent advances made in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology as applied to the food industry
  • Discusses innovative approaches and processing technologies
  • Shows how nanotechnology can be used to produce safer, nutritious, healthier, sustainable and environmental-friendly food products
  • Covers the complex mechanisms involved in the research, development, production and legislation of food containing nanostructures

Selected examples of nanotechnology applications in food industry are shown, focusing on advanced aspects of food packaging, processing and preservation; followed by one contribution that presents the potential commercialization and the main challenges for scale-up. Comprised of 15 chapters, this book provides much-needed and up-to-date information on the use of emergent technologies in bio-based nanosystems for foods, and serves as an ideal reference for scientists, regulators, industrialists, and consumers that conduct

research and development in the food processing industry.

About

Óscar Leandro da Silva Ramos earned a BSc in Microbiology from the Portuguese Catholic University Porto Portugal and a PhD in Technological and Engineering Sciences with a specialization in Biochemical Engineering from the New University of Lisbon Lisboa Portugal. He is now a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Biological Engineering (CEB) of Minho University Braga Portugal and at the Department of Chemical Engineering University of Porto Porto Portugal. He has authored or coauthored more than 20 papers in peer-reviewed journals in the field of food science and technology and 6 chapters in edited books. He also has participated in more than 30 international conferences and workshops worldwide and done more than 40 oral and poster presentations.Ricardo Nuno Correia Pereira graduated in 2003 with a degree in Food Engineering from the Portuguese Catholic University in Porto Portugal and earned his PhD in Chemical and Biological Engineering in 2011 at the University of Minho in Braga Portugal. During his career as a young researcher he has participated in several research projects both nationally and internationally in the food industry. He has worked as a consultant (professionally and educationally) for a number of private and public sector clients related to food technology. Before earning his PhD he earned an MSc in BiotechnologyBioprocess Engineering in 2007 from the University of Minho in Braga Portugal.Miguel Ângelo Parente Ribeiro Cerqueira graduated with a degree in Chemical and Biological Engineering from the University of Minho (UM) where he earned two scholar merit awards (2002 and 2003) and a scholarship merit award (2005) during graduation. He earned his PhD in December 2010 and received an award for the best PhD thesis in 2011 from the School of Engineering of UM. Since April 2011 he has been a postdoctoral researcher at UM. To date he has published more than 45 papers in peer reviewed journals 1 patent 5 papers in nonpeer-reviewed journals 12 book chapters 12 extended abstracts in international conferences 52 abstracts in international conferences and 18 abstracts in national conferences.José A. Teixeira PhD is a professor and currently the head of the Biological Engineering Department (DEB) of the Engineering School of Minho University. The biological engineering department is responsible for scientific research and teaching in the areas of biological and chemical engineering. The DEB carries out research in food safety and processing environmental biotechnology and sustainable development industrial biotechnology and chemistry and health biotechnology. Professor Teixeira focused his research activities on two main topicsfermentation technology (multiphase bioreactors in particular) and food technology. A more recent area of interest is food nanotechnology as well as the production of bioactive compounds for food and medical application.António A. Vicente PhD graduated with a degree in Food Engineering in 1994 from the Portuguese Catholic University in Porto Portugal and completed his PhD in Chemical and Biological Engineering in 1998 from the University of Minho in Braga Portugal. He received his Habilitation in 2010 from the University of Minho. From early in his career he has kept a close contact with the food industry and he is involved in several research projects both national and international together with industrial partners either as a participant or as a project leader. His main research interests are food processing by ohmic heating/moderate electric fields (namely the study of the effects of electric currents on biomolecules and cells) and fermentation technology (including design and operation of bioreactors).
