Session and Tracks

Track 1: Food Chemistry

Food chemistry is the study of both biological and non-biological elements of food, chemical processes and their interactions. It is also related to organic chemistry as it deals with the identification and quantification of components of food, such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, water, vitamins, and dietary minerals.

It is the study of chemical processes and interactions of all biological and non-biological components of foods. Food chemistry is concerned with analytical, biochemical, chemical, physical, nutritional, and toxicological aspects of foods and food ingredients. It also involves the study and development of food additives that can be used to preserve the food. It overlaps with biochemistry in that it deals with the food components.  Food chemistry can be applied in the analysis of dietary content to monitor or improve nutrition, or the determination of levels of contaminants to ensure food safety.

• Nutrifood Chemistry
• Agronomy
• Agricultural and Food Chemistry
• Flavor Chemistry
• Agricultural Chemical Science

It also involves the research and synthesis of nutrients and preservatives, as well as other additives that can be used to preserve the quality of food or modify its color, flavor, and taste. Food chemistry knowledge aids in the creation of proper food handling techniques as well as good manufacturing practices.

Track 2: Food Drug Analysis

Drug is a medicinal/ chemical compound that is prescribed by the professional health workers to suppress or aid in treatment of a certain disease or health condition. Efficacy of a drug depends upon the body mass index, severity of disease or dietary consumption. Food and Drug interaction occurs when consumption of a certain food constituent changes the behavior of a drug, causing the effects to be increased or reduced, or creating a new effect that none of the drugs could create on its own. These interactions can occur as a result of inadvertent misuse or a lack of understanding of the active ingredients in the relevant substances. Connections between food and medications can unintentionally reduce or augment the medication's effect.

Track 3: Food Additives

Food additives are substances that are added to food to enhance or preserve its safety, freshness, flavor, texture, or appearance. A few additional substances have been used for a short period of time, such as pickling (with vinegar), salting (as with bacon), preserving desserts, or using Sulfur dioxide in the same way as with drinks. Food additives are only justified where there is a technical need for them, they do not deceive consumers, and they serve a well-defined technological purpose, such as preserving the nutritional quality of the food or enhancing the food's stability. Flavoring agents are also used to improve the taste and flavor of foods. Adding flavor to them necessitates certain restrictions, namely, they must be applied in compliance with official guidelines. Many researchers and organizations have now accepted and built on this numbering scheme to uniformly distinguish all additional substances, regardless of whether they are licensed for use.

Track 4: Food Nutrition and Health

Food intake and nutrition control are also important for good health. Protein, carbohydrates, fat, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and water are the six types of nutrients that the body requires from food. Food intake, absorption, assimilation, biosynthesis, catabolism, and excretion are all included.  An organism's diet is the food it absorbs, which is primarily dictated by food supply, processing, and palatability. A balanced diet involves food preparation and storage methods that protect nutrients from oxidation, heat, and leaching while also lowering the risk of food-borne illness. A poor diet can affect one's health by causing deficiency diseases like blindness, anemia, scurvy, preterm birth, stillbirth, and cretinism, as well as health-threatening conditions like obesity and metabolic syndrome, and chronic systemic diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and osteoarthritis.

Food preservatives are widely used to prolong the shelf life of perishable foods and reduce food spoilage, ensuring that the nutritional content of the foods is maintained. Anti-microbial preservatives stop bacteria from growing, whereas antioxidant preservatives slow down lipid and vitamin content in fruit. Anti-enzymatic preservatives regulate enzymatic processes and prevent chemical enzymes from causing damage. Anti-enzymatic preservatives, for example, prohibit the fruits from ripening before harvesting. Chelating agents bind to trace metal ions, making antioxidant preservatives more efficient. Oils and fats, confectioneries, beverages, seafood, meat, poultry meals, snacks, dairy, frozen products, and other foods all use preservatives.

The global food preservatives industry is forecast to grow at a 3% CAGR from USD 2.6 billion in 2016 to USD 2.9 billion in 2021. The growing need for convenience foods and frozen foods with longer shelf lives has boosted the popularity of food preservative solutions. Preservative demand is expected to rise in response to the worries about consistency and safety requirements. Due to the increasing food and beverage manufacturing sector, cost advantages, raw material supply, China, Japan, and Australia are among the main regional markets targeted by food preservative manufacturers and distributors. This blog presents the broad physicochemical factors of food items and their global market strategies. Figure 1 depicts a flow diagram illustrating different product types, food spoilage processes, food preservation and manufacturing techniques, and a global industry overview of preserved foods.

Food Research Lab is a leading Food Consultants that supports to manufacture high quality and techno-economic feasible food products.

Figure 1: Summary of the research on the mechanisms and developments of food preservation and production [1]

Classification of foods

Foods can be divided into broad categories based on shelf life, functions, and nutritional content, as well as processing mechanisms (Fig. 2). Foods are divided into divisions depending on their shelf life. Food spoilage is a common occurrence in which food loses its colour, appearance, taste, nutritional value, and edibility over time. Food that has gone bad will cause sickness and, in the worst-case scenario, death. Food products may be graded as perishable, semi-perishable, or non-perishable based on their shelf life.

Figure 2: Classification of food [1]

Mechanism of food spoilage

Food preservation is related to food spoilage. Color, scent, taste, texture, or food may all be used to diagnose the early stages of food spoilage. Food spoilage is caused by human, microbial, or chemical behaviour. Since spoilage triggered by one mechanism may induce another, these mechanisms are not inherently mutually exclusive. The main causes of food spoilage are temperature, pH, air, nutrients, and the presence of various chemicals. Figure 3 depicts various factors that influence food spoilage.

Figure 3: Important physical, microbial, and chemical factors that influence food spoilage [1]

Food preservatives classification

Natural and synthetic preservatives are two types of food preservatives. Depending on the target food-spoiling agent, both natural and chemical/synthetic preservation additives may be labelled as anti-microbials, antioxidants, or chelators. Chemical preservatives are expected to hold a dominant market share due to their low expense, varied functionalities, and abundance; nevertheless, rising customer aversion and negative health consequences are among the major factors driving natural preservatives’ faster development.

Chemical preservatives

Preservatives are agents that hinder, retard, or stop the development of microorganisms, as well as any other degradation caused by their presence. Preservatives of food help to prolong the shelf life of certain foods. Preservatives prevent microorganisms from degrading food, allowing it to retain its colour, texture, and taste. Human and chemical food preservatives can be distinguished. Various chemicals found in animals, plants, and microorganisms may be used to protect food. They’re also antibacterial, vitamins, and flavourings. The roles of various natural reagents as food preservatives are mentioned in Table 1.

Table 1: Lists of natural preservatives [1]

Natural preservative	Example of food items	Functions
Salt Sugar	Salted fish Jam	Salt and sugar draw the water out of microorganisms and retard the growth of microorganisms.
Vinegar	Pickled mango	Vinegar provides an acidic condition which creates an unfavourable condition for microorganisms.
Rosemary extract	Mayonnaise, margarine, oils and fats, etc.	Rosemary extracts work as an antioxidant.

Food additives

The primary goals of using food additives are to boost and preserve nutritional value, improve efficiency, minimize waste, increase consumer acceptability, make food more accessible, and make food processing easier. Food additives are natural or synthetic chemical compounds deliberately added to foods during fermentation, preparation, or storage to achieve desired improvements in their properties. There are two types of food additives: deliberate and unintentional. The government specifically controls intentional additives. Table 2 lists the various forms of food additives as well as their potential uses.

Table 2: List of food additives [1]

Type of additive	Purpose	Example
Emulsifiers, stabilizers and thickeners	Impart a consistent texture to products; prevent separation of food	Algin, carrageenan
Anticaking agents	Enable products such as table salt to flow freely	Calcium silicate
Nutrients	Enrichment (replacement of nutrients lost during processing) and fortification (adding to the nutritional value of foods)	Folic acid, beta carotene, vitamin D,iron, iodine, etc.
Preservatives	Retard spoiling, prevent fats and oils from becoming rancid, prevent fresh food from turning brown	Nitrates, parabens, BHA, BHT, etc.
Leavening agents	Cause bread and baked goods to rise during baking	Sodium bicarbonate
Flavouring agents	Enhance the flavour of foods	Monosodium glutamate (MSG)
Sweeteners	Add sweetness with or without extra calories	Sucrose
Fat replacers	Impart texture, and creamy ‘mouth feel’ to food	Cellulose gel

Anti-microbial food preservatives

Anti-microbials primarily hinder or impede the development of microorganisms, thus preventing food spoilage. Compounds including calcium propionate and sorbic acid found in baked goods, salad dressings, cheeses, margarine, and pickled vegetables are examples of anti-microbial agents. Anti-microbials such as Naringenin producing Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain (a GRAS organism) [Naringenin, phenylacetaldehyde, phloretic acid and homogentisic acid] are also used as preservatives in the food industry to prolong shelf life, enhance product protection, sustain product consistency, lower production costs, and improve export goods internationally in diverse supply chains. Anti-microbials account for a considerable portion of the market due to their widespread use in various uses, including dairy and frozen foods, snacks, and convenience foods. One of the main factors of this segment’s development is consumer demand for packaged foods.

Preservatives for perishable products

Sodium nitrite is a primary preservative found in cured meats, sausage, and ground beef. When sodium nitrite is applied to meat or fish, it kills toxins and interacts with the proteins. Pathogens can be reduced by using solutions used by meat producers to increase shelf life and flavour. Meat preservatives are widely used because meat is a widely eaten food globally, with heavy use in major regions such as North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Latin America. In these areas, the economy is improving, allowing consumers to buy meat regularly.

North America is the leading market

The North American market for natural antioxidants is predicted to be the most robust between 2016 and 2022. The Asia Pacific market is expected to rise at the fastest pace. The growing demand for convenience foods is projected to affect the North American food preservatives industry significantly. Consumers are looking for convenience foods that are minimally processed and have a long shelf life. This has increased the need for suitable food safety initiatives in the field, prompting producers to look at newer innovations and additives that may be effective substitutes for synthetic preservatives.

Recent Developments

 

• Galimax Flavor V-50, a new product from Galactic, was added to the market. It’s a preservative that can be seen in various salads, from pasta salads and potato salads.
• In Belgium, Kemin has launched a new quality management lab, distribution, and logistics office. This aided the firm in providing quality service to its consumers by increasing the pricing of its goods.
• Chemical Associates Inc.’s properties were bought by Univar (US). The strategic purchase was intended to help the company expand its market reach by targeting new market categories in the food, personal care, and other sectors. This would aid in the expansion of the company’s current product line in the United States.
• The new technologies used to extend the shelf life of foods include irradiation, high-pressure food storage, and pulsed electric field effect. As dietary additives and preservatives, various chemical reagents have been added. However, there is increasing controversy over chemical additives and preservatives in food due to potential health risks.

Canada, Singapore and other European countries spend relatively less portion of their income on food while other equatorial countries like India, Pakistan and Africa spend relatively more portion of their income on food. The retail grocery industry in the US alone makes around $6.50 trillion in revenue in 2021 according to the U.S. Department of the census.

GLOBAL NUTRITION REPORT

Malnutrition is a universal issue holding back development with unacceptable human consequences and causing illness in the world population. Yet the opportunity to end malnutrition has never been greater. The UN Decade of Action on Nutrition 2016–2025 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide global and national impetus to address malnutrition and expedite progress. The burden of malnutrition across the world remains high, and progress remains slow. Malnutrition is one of the reasons for more ill health in the population than other causes. Children under five years of age face multiple burdens: 150.8 million are stunted, 50.5 million are wasted and 38.3 million are overweight. Meanwhile 20 million babies are born of low birth weight in every year. Overweight and obesity among adults are at record levels with 38.9%, stretching from Africa to North America, and increasing among adolescents. Women have a higher burden than men when it comes to certain forms of malnutrition: one third of all women of reproductive age have anemia and women have a higher prevalence of obesity than men. Millions of women are still underweight. Many countries are set to achieve the targets set by the global community to track progress on nutritional status to 2025.
