Food Chemistry
Food chemistry is the study of both the biological and non-biological components of food, focusing on the chemical processes and interactions that occur within them. It encompasses the identification and quantification of key food components such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, water, vitamins, and dietary minerals, and is closely related to organic chemistry.
Food chemistry also involves the study and development of food additives used to preserve or enhance the quality of food. It overlaps with biochemistry, particularly in the analysis of food components.
Food chemistry plays a crucial role in the analysis of dietary content to monitor or improve nutrition, as well as in detecting contaminants to ensure food safety. This field includes research into the synthesis of nutrients and preservatives, along with other additives that preserve food quality or modify its color, flavor, and taste. The knowledge gained from food chemistry also contributes to the development of proper food handling techniques and the implementation of good manufacturing practices to ensure food safety and quality.
Key areas within food chemistry include:
- Nutrifood Chemistry
- Nutrifood Chemistry
- Agronomy
- Agricultural and Food Chemistry
- Flavor Chemistry
- Agricultural Chemical Science
