Polyphenols in Plants: Isolation, Purification and Extract Preparation provides insight into how the polyphenols that occur naturally in plants can be affected during growth and development, and then effectively removed and optimized, before being implemented in food production.
Historically plants have been the major sources for drugs and health promotion. There are a small number of nutrients. However, the growing focus is on the very diverse, complex ring structures, polyphenols that are not nutritious. To study or use them in patient treatment the polyphenols need to be isolated, identified, and purified for use and study. This book will bring together experts that will update their continuing study of ways to isolate and purify polyphenols as well as determine their structures and composition. In addition, some will update their previous summaries with new research by others as well as themselves.
Plant scientists and dietary supplement producers will be particularly interested in assessing polyphenol content and factors impacting their composition, to select sources and regulate environmental conditions affecting yield for more consistent and functional dietary supplements.
Fully revised and updated with 12 new chapters including extraction optimization, additional plant varieties and recent technology advances
Develops understanding of isolation, characterization and identification of critical polyphenols vital to industrial development as therapies
Defines conditions of growth affecting the polyphenol levels
Describes assay and instrumentation techniques critical to identifying and defining polyphenols, vital to researchers and business development
Provides insights into potential dangers and importance to the dietary supplement industry, government regulators and lay public users

Deals with the developmental aspects of the lifecycle in whole fruits
Describes issues, such as the morphology and anatomy of fruits, beginning with the structural organization of the whole plant and explaining the fruit structure and its botanical classification
Addresses biotechnological concepts that control firmness, quality and the nutritional value of fruits

Описание: Our lives and well being intimately depend on the exploitation of the plant genetic resources available to our breeding programs. Therefore, more extensive exploration and effective exploitation of plant genetic resources are essential prerequisites for the release of improved cultivars. Accordingly, the remarkable progress in genomics approaches and more recently in sequencing and bioinformatics offers unprecedented opportunities for mining germplasm collections, mapping and cloning loci of interest, identifying novel alleles and deploying them for breeding purposes. This book collects 48 highly interdisciplinary articles describing how genomics improves our capacity to characterize and harness natural and artificially induced variation in order to boost crop productivity and provide consumers with high-quality food. This book will be an invaluable reference for all those interested in managing, mining and harnessing the genetic richness of plant genetic resources.

Описание: Preharvest Modulation of Postharvest Fruit and Vegetable Quality is the first book to focus on the potential yield quality, quantity and safety benefits of intervention during growth. Of the many factors responsible for overall quality of produce, about 70 percent comes from pre-harvest conditions. Written by an international team of experts, this book presents the key opportunities and challenges of pre-harvest interventions. From selecting the most appropriate growing scenario, to treating plants during the maturation process, to evaluating for quality factors to determine appropriate interventions, this book provides an integrated look at maximizing crop yield through preventative means. . In fact, with the very best of postharvest knowledge and technologies available, the best that can be achieved is a reduction in the rate at which products deteriorate as they progress through their normal developmental pattern of maturation, ripening and senescence. Therefore, it is very important to understand what pre-harvest factors influence the many important harvest quality attributes that affect the rate of postharvest deterioration and, subsequently, the consumers’ decision to purchase the product in the marketplace.

Описание: Incorporating Cultures' Role in the Food and Agricultural Sciences addresses the practical needs of the professors, administrators and students who often face challenges of working together with Indigenous peoples with whom they have no prior experience. Missed communication, failed projects and unrealistic goals are daily realities. Academia and industry often encounter frustration in recruiting and retaining Native American students and other ethnicities. . This text is a guide for anyone working in the food or agriculture disciplines or industries, particularly for those working with people of a culture different from one’s own. Comprehensive, full awareness of one’s own culture is a prerequisite for effective teaching and learning within another culture. This book is replete with stories, examples and peer-refereed journal articles to help build awareness. These stories, examples and articles from multiple voices are placed over a basic underlying framework that is summed up in the title of the book itself.
