FOOD CHEMISTRY A manual designed for Food Chemistry Laboratory courses that meet Institute of Food Technologists undergraduate education standards for degrees in Food Science In the newly revised second edition of Food Chemistry: A Laboratory Manual, two professors with a combined 50 years of experience teaching food chemistry and dairy chemistry laboratory courses deliver an in-depth exploration of the fundamental chemical principles that govern the relationships between the composition of foods and food ingredients and their functional, nutritional, and sensory properties. Readers will discover practical laboratory exercises, methods, and techniques that are commonly employed in food chemistry research and food product development. Every chapter offers introductory summaries of key methodological concepts and interpretations of the results obtained from food experiments. The book provides a supplementary online Instructor’s Guide useful for adopting professors that includes a Solutions Manual and Preparation Manual for laboratory sessions. The latest edition presents additional experiments, updated background material and references, expanded end-of-chapter problem sets, expanded use of chemical structures, and: A thorough emphasis on practical food chemistry problems encountered in food processing, storage, transportation, and preparation Comprehensive explorations of complex interactions between food components beyond simply measuring concentrations Additional experiments, references, and chemical structures Numerous laboratory exercises sufficient for a one-semester course Perfect for students of food science and technology, Food Chemistry: A Laboratory Manual will also earn a place in the libraries of food chemists, food product developers, analytical chemists, lab technicians, food safety and processing professionals, and food engineers.

Principles of Food Science incorporates science concepts into a lab-oriented foods class. This text shows how the laws of science are at work in foods prepared at home and by the food industry. Clear examples make difficult concepts easy to understand. Each chapter includes engaging features focusing on such areas as current research, technology, and nutrition news. Through lab experiments in the text and Lab Manual, students will practice scientific and sensory evaluation of foods. They will discover how nutrients and other food components illustrate basic chemistry concepts. They will examine the positive and negative impacts microorganisms have on the food supply. Students will also explore the variety of careers available to workers with a food science background.

A popular book in its first edition, The Food Chemistry Laboratory: A Manual for Experimental Foods, Dietetics, and Food Scientists, Second Edition continues to provide students with practical knowledge of the fundamentals of designing, executing, and reporting the results of a research project. Presenting experiments that can be completed, in many

In Food Science: The Biochemistry of Food and Nutrition students learn to use the scientific method as they study the biological and chemical basis of food and nutrition. The text combines scientific principles with real-life applications of food preparation and nutrition. It is taught by the Family and Consumer Sciences teacher, a Science teacher, or by the two together. Students will learn to apply scientific principles of food and nutrition as they explore foods and nutrition using basic scientific equipment. Measurement, use of equipment, problem solving, reasoning skills and writing are emphasized. This flexible text format is adaptable to a one or two semester course.

A superb educational resource for students of food science and technology Food Chemistry: A Laboratory Manual is a valuable source of ideas and guidance for students enrolled in food chemistry laboratory courses required as part of an Institute of Food Technologists-approved program in food science and technology. Based on Professor Dennis D. Miller's popular food chemistry course at Cornell University, it is appropriate for courses offered at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. From buffer systems to enzymatic browning, chemical leavening to meat tenderizers, it covers all topics generally addressed in contemporary food chemistry courses. Chapters feature: * A concise review of important chemical principles * Chemical structures and equations * An experiment illustrating several key aspects of the topic under discussion * A list of apparatus, instruments, reagents, and other materials required to perform the experiment * Illustrated, step-by-step instructions on how to perform the experiment * Data analysis tips and spreadsheet information (where appropriate) * Extensive problem sets to help reinforce key concepts and processes covered * Useful formulas, equations, and calculations * Extensive references to supplementary readings Companion Web site: Access this site by visiting www.wiley.com/ The Food Chemistry: A Laboratory Manual companion Web site features: * Valuable supplemental material * References from the Manual * Links to other food chemistry sites * Study questions and answers * Lab report templates

This second edition laboratory manual was written to accompany Food Analysis, Fourth Edition, ISBN 978-1-4419-1477-4, by the same author. The 21 laboratory exercises in the manual cover 20 of the 32 chapters in the textbook. Many of the laboratory exercises have multiple sections to cover several methods of analysis for a particular food component of characteristic. Most of the laboratory exercises include the following: introduction, reading assignment, objective, principle of method, chemicals, reagents, precautions and waste disposal, supplies, equipment, procedure, data and calculations, questions, and references. This laboratory manual is ideal for the laboratory portion of undergraduate courses in food analysis.
