Automation in food analysis

wound in a double helix. Fluid transfer power is supplied by compressed air, whilst the valving system is exposed solely to "clean" fluids air and methylene chloride. Use of an appropriate phase separator permits other water/solvent combinations to be used. Massie 15] has developed a multi-channel, continuous flow instrument for use in water testing laboratories. This instrument is capable of r...

PCR in Food Analysis

The aim of this chapter is to briefly present polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based technologies for use in the detection and quantification of different microorganisms in foods, with an emphasis on sample preparation and evaluation of results. Furthermore, we indicate the PCR-based methods that are most commonly used for the typing of bacteria, and in the final section we provide examples of P...

Analysis of Food Products

Food analysis is the discipline dealing with the development, application and study of analytical procedures for characterizing the properties of foods and their constituents. These analytical procedures are used to provide information about a wide variety of different characteristics of foods, including their composition, structure, physicochemical properties and sensory attributes. This infor...

An Analysis on The Lotka-Volterra Food Chain Model: Stability

The food chain refers to a natural system by which energy is transmitted from one organism to another. In fact, a food chain consists of producers, consumers and decomposition. Presence of complex food web increase the stability of the ecosystem. Classical food chain theory arises from Lotka-Volterra model. In the present paper, the dynamics behavior of three level food chain is studied. A syst...
