Food Chemistry: A Laboratory Manual, 2nd Edition, presents laboratory exercises designed for courses that meet Institute of Food Technologists undergraduate education standards for food science degrees. Drawing on extensive classroom instruction, the manual supplies practical investigations suitable for a one-semester curriculum.
Investigations explore fundamental chemical behavior across food components, including chemical leavening agents, sugar properties, nonenzymatic browning, hydrocolloids, and protein functionality. Additional laboratory work examines lipid oxidation, caffeine in beverages, and food emulsions.
Each chapter provides introductory summaries of primary methodological concepts alongside guidance on interpreting experimental results. Adopting professors can access an online guide providing preparation notes and solutions.
