Finding natural substances is worthwhile in food preservation. The principal motivation behind this edited volume, Antimicrobials for Sustainable Food Storage, is to collect and present widespread knowledge in the domain of sustainable food ingredients with antimicrobial properties. The book consists of two sections. The first section of this volume is about food ingredients as antimicrobials, and the second section discusses the recent advances in the applications of food ingredients.Interplay of various environmental factors favors the growth of different microorganisms during the food preservation process. Growth of undesirable microorganisms negatively influences the taste, smell, color, and texture of food. Therefore, sustainable food preservation is a challenging issue. Though several chemicals have emerged, inevitable health effects are commonly encountered by food preserve chemicals.Microbial products (nisin, enterocin, pentosin, sakacin, and pediocin) have immense importance in prolonging the shelf life of food substances by controlling food spoilage and pathogenic microbes. Yeasts and cyanobacteria are also potential candidates in the supply of food ingredients with significant antimicrobial properties. However, limited awareness of antimicrobials as food ingredients and the unavailability of a single source of the latest insights on such food ingredients in one place led to the motivation to produce this work.Key Features:Provides insights on natural antimicrobials in food preservationUnderlines the importance of sustainable food packagingOffers knowledge on emerging trends in antimicrobial-based food storageDiverse applications are covered in different chapters. This book covers various antimicrobials as food preservatives, such as metabolites, natural products, essential oils, nanomaterials, L-arginine, polyphenols, phaeophyceae, and horchata. There are also chapters that focus on the applicability and prospective studies of essential oils, edible biofilms, biodegradable antimicrobials, and nanostructured lipid carriers in the food sector and the method for encapsulation of antimicrobials.

Biotoxins are naturally occurring substances present in living organisms as a way of conferring biological defense or protection on such organisms. But their presence in food has been found to be a threat to unsuspecting food consumers. While they are exploited as biocontrol agents and as a biological defense mechanism against pests and predators in the field, biotoxins are implicated in foodborne illness in humans if consumed. Naturally occurring substances present in food include glycoalkaloids found in potatoes and lectins (phytohemagglutinin) in green beans and red kidney beans. Biotoxins in Food: Threats and Benefits discusses the natural poisons present in food, the threats posed, and the possible detection methods. This book assesses the implications of these biotoxins in food by evaluating the threats posed by the consumption of these naturally occurring poisons and the various emerging detection procedures available in the food industry. Several reports from contributing authors focus on the various threats linked to various food products and offer solutions in terms of removal. Early detection of these biotoxins to prevent food illnesses is well documented.Key Features:Discusses the emerging concepts of types, sources, and distribution of biotoxins in foodAddresses the prevalence and applications of biotoxins in food productsAnalyzes the current detection technology of biotoxins in foods
