Berry Bioactive Compound By-Products explores the phytochemistry, functional properties, health-promoting effects, and food and non-food applications of bioactive compounds in berry processing by-products. The book covers a range of berry processing by-products, including mulberry, raspberry, blueberry, and many more. The book examines the chemical composition, bioactive compounds, green methods for extraction, metabolism and bioactivity of bioactive components, biorefinery, bioenergy, and zero waste processing, and economic values for each berry's by-products. Edited by world experts, this book is a valuable resource for food scientists, researchers, and students in the fields of functional foods and food science, technology, and bioprocess engineering. Presents systemized and detailed information about each berry by-product Covers the methods for bioactive components extraction, and their functionality, technological aspects, and stability under processing and storage conditions Includes information on processing by-products for mulberry, raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, wolfberry, chokeberry, bilberry, cranberry, grape, cherry, fig, barberry, and black, white, and red currant

Interaction of Food Macromolecules: The Matrix of Future Foods provides a detailed understanding on why biological macromolecules, i.e., proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates with ligands interactions are essential to understanding biology at the molecular level. The book aims to create a multidisciplinary forum of discussion on the interaction between macromolecules and ligands, providing an understanding on how biological macromolecules with ligands interactions are central to facilitating the discovery, design, and development of future, functional foods. In addition, it outlines information available on the macromolecules-ligands interaction that happens inside the food matrixes and inside our bodies.Knowing about the mechanisms responsible for the macromolecules-ligands recognition and binding facilitates the discovery, design, and development of future and functional foods.

Discusses how the interaction between macromolecules and ligands facilitates the discovery, design, and development of future, functional foodsShows how macromolecules can affect foods’ stability, functionality, physicochemical behaviors, and bioavailabilityOutlines how binding models such as lock-and-key, induced fit, and conformational selection of macromolecule-ligands affect the overall properties of food and foodstuffs
