Magnetic Resonance in Food Science provides an up-to-date, global perspective of the latest developments in the field, including:
- methods of studying metabolic processes both in vivo and in vitro
- functional MRI
- and the sensory perception of food
Content is divided into five sections:
- sensory science
- aroma and flavour
- authenticity and quantification of food
- functionality, structure and ingredients
- applications of solid-state methods
- new NMR methods and instrumentation
