Extraction, Characterization, and Functional Assessment of Bioactive Compounds
Description
This volume details methods and procedures on extraction, characterization, and functional assessment of bioactive compounds. Chapters guide readers through bioactive compounds, development, testing and characterization of phenolic compounds, and other compounds. Written in the format of the Methods and Protocols in Food Science series, the chapters include an introduction to the respective topic, list necessary materials and reagents, detail well-established and validated methods for readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and contain notes on how to avoid or solve typical problems.
Authoritative and cutting-edge, Extraction, Characterization, and Functional Assessment of Bioactive Compounds aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
