Quality Control in Fruit and Vegetable Processing: Methods and
Strategies illustrates the applications of various nonthermal
technologies for improving the quality and safety of fruits and
vegetables, such as microwave, ultrasound, gamma irradiation,
pulsed light, and hurdle technology. The volume also looks at
various strategies (osmotic dehydration, ultrasound- and
ultrasound-assisted osmotic dehydration, nanoemulsions, and
engineered nanomaterials) for the preservation of fresh produce. It
emphasizes various nondestructive techniques that have been widely
used for the quality assessment of fruits and vegetables during
storage, including image analysis, x-ray tomography, magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI), nonmagnetic resonance imaging (NMR), color
vision system, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), and computerized
tomography (CT). Applications of other nondestructive mechanical
(such as electronic tongue and nose technology) and dynamic methods
(acoustic) for food quality and safety evaluation have also been
included. The book concludes with an overview of the potential use
of fruit and vegetable waste as a viable feedstock for bioenergy
and for the treatment of wastewater. Key features: Promotes the
utilization of new and novel nonthermal technologies for the
preservation of fruits and vegetables Provide up-to-date
information on the applications of nonthermal technologies for the
quality and safety of fresh produce during storage Highlights
different preservation strategies for improving the quality of
fresh produce Explores the use of nondestructive quality assessment
methods such as X-ray, MRI, NMR, etc. Discusses the potential
industrial use of fruit and vegetable waste as a viable feedstock
for bioenergy and for the treatment of industrial wastewater This
volume will provide food for thought for those in the food industry
on new methods and technology for effective quality control in
fruit and vegetable processing.
