This study begins with the perspective of food safety management and the traceability system of the whole supplying chains, taking the food safety problem of fruits and vegetables as the starting point of the research, combined with the domestic and foreign advanced food safety tracing theory as well as the application of technology, so as to construct food safety tracing system of fruits and v...

Hurdle technology is a method of ensuring that food products will be safe for consumption and extending their shelf life. It also ensures that pathogens in food products will be eliminated. Hurdle technology is used in food industry for the gentle but effective preservation of foods. The shelf life, sensory and nutritional quality of foods are based on applications of combined preservative fact...

This poster discusses one important metaphysical question concerning food and food technologies – that is, how technologies have gradually alienated food from its natural rooting and what are the consequent philosophical concerns behind that. In order to examine this question, this poster will discuss four key sources that each exemplifies a well-known, currently ongoing technology on different...

Cold plasma (CP) technology has proven very effective as an alternative tool for food decontamination and shelf-life extension. The impact of CP on food quality is very crucial for its acceptance as an alternative food processing technology. Due to the non-thermal nature, CP treatments have shown no or minimal impacts on the physical, chemical, nutritional and sensory attributes of various prod...

The Platform of Food Allergens was formally created in Argentina in April 2009. It is a multidisciplinary discussion forum formed by professionals from different government institutions such as the National Institute of Agricultural Technology (INTA), National Institute of Industrial Technology (INTI), National Institute of Foods (INAL); School of Pharmacy and Biochemistry (Buenos Aires Univers...

Isotopic and nuclear techniques play an important role in food and agriculture, health and industry. In the agricultural sciences and food technology sectors, recent research has elucidated the new potential application of radiation for microbial decontamination, food preservation, improve the nutritional quality of  foods  and effectively utilise its potential as human food or animal feed. The...

The science of food has evolved significantly over the last two decades with numerous specialized journals available to promote scientific communication. While most journals continue to push for cutting-edge technologies in order to boost their impact factor, it is important to point out that the full impact of research conducted in food science and nutrition cannot simply be represented by a c...
