Beskrivning

Chia Seeds: Applications in the Agri-food Industry is a comprehensive guide to the properties of chia biomass (seeds, leaves, and ingredients/products thereof) and their utilization in the agri-food industry and beyond. The book is based on the analysis of chia value chain and summarizes the scientific, technical, and health aspects of chia (Salvia hispanica L.). Divided into 3 sections, it fills a critical gap in the literature by providing a comprehensive overview of chia biomass available to address key global bioeconomy and United Nation Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) challenges.

User will find advanced information for the utilization of chia-based biomass based on their specific properties, application of eco-efficient technologies for their processing and conversion into a variety of products for different groups of consumers, including those with special needs (e.g. celiac patients, vegans and vegetarians). In addition, the book offers practical guidance on the development of new value chains and their integration within the existing agri-food systems.

Presents chia seed-based products in line with regulatory requirements
Provides detailed information on chia biomass properties, its primary and secondary metabolites, and techno-functional properties
Discusses the economic and environmental sustainability of chia and chia-based value chains
