Bioactive Compounds: Mechanisms, Challenges and Strategies for Bioaccessibility and Bioavailability brings together leading experts from the fields of nutrition, food science, and pharmacology to elucidate the intricate dynamics of bioactive compounds and their impact on human health. This comprehensive volume delineates the crucial differences between bioaccessibility and bioavailability, providing insight into their implications for health outcomes. Readers will explore the behavior of key classes of bioactive compounds, including polyphenols, carotenoids, and peptides, as well as their sources and interactions within the food matrix. The book further examines the essential role of gut microbiota in the absorption processes, highlighting how these interactions can influence bioactive compound efficacy in the human body. Bioactive Compounds: Mechanisms, Challenges and Strategies for Bioaccessibility and Bioavailability not only discusses the mechanisms of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of bioactive compounds but also introduces cutting-edge tools and strategies designed to enhance their bioaccessibility and bioavailability. Chapters dedicated to innovative approaches, such as microfluidics and nanotechnology, provide practical insights into the development of effective delivery systems. With a focus on real-world applications and clinical implications, this book serves as a vital resource for academics, clinicians, food chemists, and nutritionists aiming to bridge the gap between research and application in the fields of nutraceuticals and functional foods while optimizing health outcomes.Delineates the differences between bioaccessibility and bioavailability, along with their implications for health outcomesHighlights the impact of the interaction of the main classes of bioactive compounds such as polyphenols, carotenoids, and peptides while addressing their sources, and behavior within the food matrixDiscusses the role of the gut microbiota in the absorption processes of bioactive compoundsIntroduces tools and strategies to improve bioaccessibility and bioavailability, including microfluidics, and nanotechnologyProvides insights into bioactive compounds' bioaccessibility, bioavailability, health effects, absorption, and metabolism function

Practical Applications of Physical Chemistry in Food Science and Technology provides comprehensive information, original research, and reports on scientific advances in practical applications of physical chemistry in food science and technology, making a special emphasis on incorporating sustainable development goals. This book demonstrates the potential and actual developments in the design and development of physical chemistry strategies and tools for the food science and technology. Chapters cover many topics in this field, including nutritional and pharmaceutical properties and analysis, electroanalytical and electrochemical techniques, valorization of food residues, bioactives and bioactivities, separative extraction, microencapsulation, nanoemulsions, and much more. Several chapters address how the food industry generates a large amount of agroindustrial waste that seriously affects the environment and present mitigation strategies and technology to use these agroindustrial waste products to produce bioactive compounds that can add value to food products. Certain fruit and vegetable species are discussed as a potential new source for its use their raw materials of use in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.
