This volume considers activities devoted to ensuring that the input of contaminants from the environment is minimised. Chapters deal with methods of modern instrumental analysis, with a wide range of contaminants, with risk assessment, and with sensory assessment and tainting.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"A cool, authoritative recitation of the state of scientific knowledge in this emotive area"
Food Science and Technology Today
"A valuable snapshot of the current state of knowledge... with an easy-to-read style and many references, it is likely to win many friends"
The Analyst
"584 pages in 13 dynamic and extremely different chapters, written by 19 scientists from seven countries.
What will we be eating in 10 years' time? Will it be "safe or suffer"? Read this book and smell the roses, or should I say the tainted-contaminated food!"
