Produktbeschreibung

Extracellular Polysaccharides: A Novel Frontier in Alternative Food Strategies represents a pioneering venture into the understudied territory of extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) and the potential advancements, such as a reduced reliance on chemical additives, that they can make in the realm of alternative food solutions. This work transcends the conventional discourse on food production challenges by unveiling the multifaceted applications of EPS sourced from diverse organisms like bacteria, fungi, algae, and plants. Experts in the field navigate readers through sustainable extraction techniques, nutritional insights, and cutting-edge technologies, offering a comprehensive roadmap for revolutionizing the global food industry.

This book embarks beyond the theoretical, delving into practical applications of EPS in various food products, from enhancing textures to serving as natural preservatives. Addressing current concerns in the food industry, this book serves as a catalyst for change, providing a holistic perspective on EPS that is both scientifically rigorous and accessible to a wide audience. Researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers will find invaluable insights, discovering novel strategies for addressing food security, improving nutritional profiles, and navigating the complex landscape of regulatory considerations. Extracellular Polysaccharides is a guide to a sustainable and resilient food future, empowering its readers to be at the forefront of innovation and positive change.
