The book describes the new advances in the science and technology of hydrocolloids which are used in food and related systems.

The book describes the new advances in the science and technology of hydrocolloids which are used in food and related systems. The focus is on the technofunctionality and the biofunctionality of hydrocolloids, giving an appropriate emphasis to the manipulative skills of the food scientist and recognising the special part hydrocolloids can play in supporting human health. Gums and Stabilisers for the Food Industry 17 captures the latest research findings of leading scientists which were presented at the Gums and Stabilisers for the Food Industry Conference. Covering a wide range of topics, including; functional properties of proteins, alternative protein surces, low moisture foods, value added co-products from biorefining and bioactive polysaccharides. This book is a useful information source to researchers and other professionals in industry and academia, particularly those involved with food science.

Describing the latest research advances in the science and technology of hydrocolloids which are used in food and related systems, this book captures presentations of leading scientists for researchers and other professionals in industry and academia and as a reference for students of food science.

The tenth volume of "Gums and Stabilisers for the Food Industry" provides an up-to-date account of the latest research developments in the characterisation, properties and applications of polysaccharides and proteins used in food.

The science and technology of hydrocolloids used in food and related systems has seen many new developments and advances over recent years. Gums and Stabilisers for the Food Industry 13 presents the latest research from leading experts in the field including: * Biochemical characterisation, the use of antibodies, immunostaining and enzyme hydrolysis * Chemical and physicochemical characterisation, including rheological investigation and AFM studies * Engineering food microstructure including exploiting association and phase separation in mixed polymer systems and interaction with particles * The role of biopolymers in the formation of emulsions and foams * Influence of hydrocolloids on organoleptic properties * The application of hydrocolloids in foods and beverages * Health aspects This book will be a useful information source for researchers and other professionals in industry and academia, particularly those involved directly with food science.

The latest volume in the successful Special Publication Series captures the most recent research findings in the field of food hydrocolloids. The impressive list of contributions from international experts includes topics such as: * Hydrocolloids as dietary fibre * The role of hydrocolloids in controlling the microstructure of foods * The characterisation of hydrocolloids * Rheological properties * The influence of hydrocolloids on emulsion stability * Low moisture systems * Applications of hydrocolloids in food products Gums and Stabilisers for the Food Industry 12, with its wide breadth of coverage, will be of great value to all who research, produce, process or use hydrocolloids, both in industry and academia.

Describing the latest research advances in the science and technology of hydrocolloids that are used in food and related systems, this book captures the presentations of leading scientists from the Gums and Stabilisers for the Food Industry Conference: Hydrocolloid Functionality for Affordable and Sustainable Global Food Solutions held in June 2015. Topics covered include sustainable and secure foods, healthy food products, innovative manufacture and formulation design as well as active packaging and edible films. Providing a fresh glance on food quality, it is a useful information source for researchers and other professionals in industry and academia and a reference for students of food science.
