| Tóm tắt: | The demand of producing high-quality, safe (pathogen-free) food relies increasingly on natural
sources of antimicrobials to inhibit food-spoilage organisms and food-borne pathogens and
toxins. The discovery and development of new antimicrobials from natural sources for a wide
range of applications requires that knowledge of traditional sources for food antimicrobials is
combined with the latest technologies in identification, characterization and application. This
book explores some novel, natural sources of antimicrobials as well as the latest developments
in using well-known antimicrobials in food.
The book includes antimicrobials from microbial sources (bacteriophages, bacteria, algae
and fungi), animal-derived products (milk proteins, chitosan and reduction of biogenic
amines), plants and plant products (essential oils, phytochemicals and bioactive compounds).
A separate section of the book covers natural antimicrobials for fresh products. New and
emerging technologies (a database for bacteriocin and predictive modelling of antimicrobial
efficacy) concerning antimicrobials have also been incorporated.
The book could be considered essential reading for food technologists, microbiologists,
biotechnologists, pharmacologists, botanists, agriculture specialists and those who believe in
eco-friendly natural products. It should also be useful for postgraduate students and
researchers.
We are grateful to all the contributors for the submission of their valuable manuscripts.
