This is a unique book on food chemistry emphasizing modern mechanisms underlying the chemical reactions that occur in food during processing and storage and interactions among the components of foods. The autho r has stressed the principles of the reaction mechanisms, carefully de tailing what is known to occur or is expected to occur based on his de tailed understanding of organic chemical reactions. This unifies the t hemes of oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, structure, polymerization, emulsification, etc., that are key ...
