situations, value addition, packaging, nutraceuticals/ functional foods, safety regulations
and laws, career in food science, etc. The book extensively discusses the conventional and
sophisticated preservation methods using thermal and other energy such as irradiation,
high-pressure, pulsed electric, magnetic field, etc. Handling and preservation of fruits and
vegetables, cereals, fish, meat, poultry and milk are discussed in detail.
This area is an amalgamation of biological science, chemical sciences, physical sciences,
engineering, mathematics, etc. and this knowledge is inevitable where food properties are
