Kinetic Modeling of Reactions in Foods: Modeling of Food Quality Attributes provides an introduction to kinetic models and modeling techniques and their applications in food science and technology. This book argues that the modeling of food changes is kinetic modeling. Integrating food science knowledge, kinetics, and statistics, it explores the potential to predict and control food quality attributes with computer models. It presents applications of kinetic models using general chemical, physical, and biochemical principles. It also includes an introduction to Bayesian statistics in kinetic...

Consideration of the interactions between decisions made at one point in the supply chain and its effects on the subsequent stages is the core concept of a systems approach. Postharvest Handling is unique in its application of this systems approach to the handling of fruits and vegetables, exploring multiple aspects of this important process through chapters written by experts from a variety of backgrounds. Newly updated and revised, this second edition includes coverage of the logistics of fresh produce from multiple perspectives, postharvest handing under varying weather conditions,...

Understanding the causes and contributing factors leading to outbreaks of food-borne illness associated with contamination of fresh produce is a worldwide challenge for everyone from the growers of fresh-cut produce through the entire production and delivery process. The premise of The Produce Contamination Problem is that when human pathogen contamination of fresh produce occurs, it is extremely difficult to reduce pathogen levels sufficiently to assure microbiological safety with the currently available technologies. A wiser strategy would be to avoid crop production conditions...
