This Edited Volume Trends and Innovations in Food Science is a collection of reviewed and relevant research chapters, offering a comprehensive overview of recent developments in the field of recent developments in agricultural and biological sciences. The book comprises single chapters authored by various researchers and edited by an expert active in the Food Science research area. All chapters are complete in themselves but united under a common research study topic. This publication aims at providing a thorough overview of the latest research efforts by international authors on coffee shops as social-cultural entities, the interaction of high-intensity ultrasound with foods, nutrigenomics, value-added foods, strategies for improving nutrition in developing countries, and open new possible research paths for further novel developments.

A food additive is defined as a substance not normally consumed as a food in itself and not normally used as a characteristic ingredient of food whether or not it has nutritive value. Food additives are natural or manufactured substances, which are added to food to restore colors lost during processing. They provide sweetness, prevent deterioration during storage and guard against food poisoning (preservatives). This book provides a review of traditional and non-traditional food preservation approaches and ingredients used as food additives. It also provides detailed knowledge for the evaluation of the agro-industrial wastes based on their great potential for the production of industrially relevant food additives. Furthermore the assessment of potential reproductive and developmental toxicity perspectives of some newly synthesized food additives on market has been covered. Finally, the identification of the areas relevant for future research has been pointed out indicating that there is more and more information needed to explore the possibility of the implementation of some other materials to be used as food additives.
