New preservation technologies – new book from CCFRA

A concise overview of new technologies and their role in food preservation has been published by CCFRA. New technologies in food preservation will help technical personnel who wish to become acquainted with the scope and potential of non-traditional approaches to food preservation.

After an introductory chapter on food preservation in relation to both safety and spoilage, it looks at novel developments with the established preservation technologies of heating, freezing and drying. It then works through high pressure processing, irradiation, power ultrasound and pulsed electric fields, in each case describing the principles and illustrating these with examples from products in the marketplace or the world of research and development. It is the latest in CCFRA’s Key Topics in Food Science and Technology series.
