Special Topics
First published in 1914 by Professor Fritz Ullmann in Berlin, the Enzyklopädie der Technischen Chemie (as the German title read) quickly became the standard reference work in industrial chemistry. Generations of chemists have since relied on ULLMANN'S as their prime reference source. Three further German editions followed in 1928 – 1932, 1951 – 1970, and in 1972 – 1984. From 1985 to 1996, the 5th edition of ULLMANN'S Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry was the first edition to be published in English rather than German language. So far, two more complete English editions have been published in print; the 6th edition of 40 volumes in 2002, and the 7th edition in 2011, again comprising 40 volumes. In addition, a number of smaller topic-oriented editions have been published.
Since 1997, ULLMANN'S Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry has also been available in electronic format, first in a CD-ROM edition and, since 2000, in an enhanced online edition. Both electronic editions feature powerful search and navigation functions as well as regular content updates.

1. Introduction
Foods are mixtures of chemicals that are consumed by humans to satisfy their appetites for nourishment and pleasure. The nature and reactivity of the chemical constituents determine the properties of foods. The sensory properties, i.e., appearance, flavor, and texture, determine the acceptance of food and the pleasure derived from consuming it. Water-soluble components (salts, sugar, acids, and bitter substances) determine the taste, and volatile compounds determine the aroma. The texture is due to insoluble complexes or compounds such as proteins and polysaccharides; in some foods, lipids contribute to texture. Pigments are critical contributors to appearance. Most of the nutrients are provided by proteins, vitamins, and minerals, whereas carbohydrates and fats provide the energy. The ideal food should be both delicious and nutritious. Unfortunately, many nutritious foods are considered unappetizing by many people.
The following procedures or processes have been used to produce appealing, nutritious foods (for details, see → Foods, 2. Food Technology):
mixing products, e.g., fruit salads, vegetable salads, and fruit yogurts
adding seasonings or other materials, e.g., adding soy protein to sausage or smoking meats
fractionating to produce new products, e.g., separating milk to yield cream and skim milk
homogenizing to produce a more uniform product, e.g., peanut butter or milk
fermenting and pickling to produce new and more stable products, e.g., cheese manufacture
enzymatic treatment, e.g., enzymatic modification of starch to produce corn syrups of varying sweetness
thermal processing including cooking and baking, to destroy undesirable microbes, enzymes, and antinutrients such as trypsin inhibitors and enhance sensory appeal.
2. History of Food Production and Preservation
In the beginning, foods were selected from available natural products [1–8]. This led to the development of regional eating habits. The origin of modern economic plants was possibly as follows [1]:
At first, selection of food from the available supply was based primarily on sensory properties. By trial and error, people learned that some products satisfied their appetites while others adversely affected their health. The people who made the right choices lived to pass on the information to the next generation.
In the days when humans were merely hunters or gatherers of foods, the adequacy of diet depended on the types and quantity of available plants and animals. The need to develop methods for preserving food for use throughout the year became obvious. Concern over the quantity and quality of food increased as population increased. These food problems stimulated development of methods for producing and preserving foods (→ Foods, 2. Food Technology). The progression of civilization from the food gathering stage to the early food production era, i.e., from the Old Stone Age to 400 AD, is shown in Table 1.
Table 1. History of growing, processing, and preserving food [1]
In Germany, substantial increases in agricultural production occurred after the introduction of the iron plow in the 6th century, the horseshoe in the 9th century, and the horsecollar soon after. The threefold rotation system (one-third of the land remained fallow, summer crops were raised on another third, and winter crops on the other third) also increased production.
During the Middle Ages the variety of available foods increased as a result of increased traveling and trading. The discovery of America had a pronounced effect on the variety of food with the introduction of potatoes and corn, as well as other native American products, such as tomatoes, peanuts, lima beans, and turkeys.
The 16th century marked the beginning of the so-called Golden Age of Science, [1], [6–10]. During this time, scholars investigated the nature and composition of foods. Some of the components discovered are listed in Table 2. These discoveries gave credibility to the scientific approach to biological problems and stimulated further research and technical developments (Table 3).
In the last two centuries considerable progress has been made in increasing the quantity and improving the quality of food [11, 12].
Table 2. Some components isolated from foods prior to 1800
Table 3. Chronology of some developments in food technology
Food Quantity. Quantitative increases in the food supply have resulted from the following:
The use of better breeding practices and careful genetic selection, which led to the development of high yielding varieties of wheat and rice.
Replacing draft animals with mechanical power increased the acreage that could be farmed and released millions of hectares of land that had been devoted to raising feed for horses. However, mechanization of agriculture increased fossil fuel consumption.
Irrigation has converted vast areas from desert or semidesert to profitable food producing areas. Unfortunately, continuous irrigation has caused water logging and increased soil salinity.
The use of chemical fertilizers has created remarkable increases in production (→ Fertilizers). The gains have been partially offset by the cost of the fertilizers in terms of dollars and expenditure of fossil fuel. In some cases the runoff of chemical fertilizers has polluted drinking water and increased the growth of algae in the streams, which has killed fish.
The use of pesticides has also contributed to the world food supply by eliminating pests that reduce yields or pests that consume harvested foods (→ Crop Protection). Because pesticides contribute to pollution and are hazardous to some species of animal life, alternative pest control methods have been and are being sought. Some success has been achieved in breeding disease-resistant varieties of plants and in developing biological methods, e.g., microbial parasites, that destroy the pests.
Reduction in postharvest losses has been achieved by using storage facilities and packages that protect the food from biological, chemical, and physical damage (→ Foods, 4. Packaging). In developing countries, postharvest losses can be as high as 50% for some commodities [13].
Recovery of foods and ingredients from underutilized products. For example, recovery of proteins from whey and blood [14–17], underutilized meats from chicken [18, 19] and fish [20, 21].
Food Quality. Much of the progress in solving food quality problems can be attributed to basic scientific studies that have identified the causes for changes in quality, e.g., LOUISPASTEUR's studies, which led to pasteurization (→ Foods, 2. Food Technology). In the process of studying the mechanism of thermal destruction of microbes, researchers noted that in some cases thermal processing also affected flavor, color, and texture [6], [7], [22–24]. Heating fluid dairy products produced cooked (custardlike) flavor, which was found to be due to the release of sulfhydryl groups from proteins [25]. More drastic heating of milk or other foods containing carbonyl and amino groups caused both flavor and color changes. In 1908, A. R. LING described this reaction, and in 1912 L. C. MAILLARD investigated the mechanism [26]. Direct heating of products with high sugar content produced both caramel color and flavor. Heating affected the texture of meat and eggs by altering the proteins. It was found that the activity of many endogenous food enzymes could be controlled by thermal processing [27], [28]. The importance and nature of enzymatic changes are discussed in Section 3.7 (→ Enzymes, 1. General).
Scientific studies have shown that many changes in food quality are due to either oxidative or hydrolytic reactions, and therefore, controlling them is important [6, 7, 29–31]. Oxidative changes have been minimized by (1) storing food in a controlled atmosphere, (2) using packages that are impervious to oxygen, (3) inactivating oxidative enzymes, (4) avoiding contamination with catalytic metals, or (5) addition of antioxidants (→ Antioxidants ; → Foods, 3. Food Additives). Hydrolytic changes have been inhibited by (1) inactivating hydrolytic enzymes, (2) maintaining the integrity of cell walls or membranes, which protect the substrate, or (3) adding inhibitors [32].
3. Components and Their Reactions
Foods range in complexity from a single compound (e.g., sugar) to multicomponent mixtures (e.g., meat). The properties of foods reflect the properties of the individual components and their interactions. Food interactions include all types of noncovalent (van der Waals, hydrogen, ionic, and hydrophobic) and covalent bonds. These interactions contribute to a variety of structural features such as cell walls, micelles, fat globules, fat globule membranes, three-dimensional gel structures, muscle fibers, and curds.
The reactions of components in foods are affected by pH, temperature, concentration of reactants, available water, catalysts, activators, and inhibitors. They may be catalyzed by light, enzymes, and nonenzymatic materials such as metals. Inhibitors can be substances that chelate metal catalysts or that interact with one of the reactants. Chelating agents can react with calcium or iron and thus reduce their nutritional availability. The nutritional quality of foods can also be reduced by oxidation of essential fatty acids or other nutrients, or by the interaction of proteins with tannins. The optimal sensory and nutritional properties can be obtained by controlling the reactions of the components.
3.1. Water
Occurrence. Water [7732-18-5] is one of the basic and most ubiquitous constituents of living organisms, [6, 7, 33–36]. The water content of raw fruits, vegetables, and meats exceeds 50 wt %, but the concentration in cereals, nuts and many processed foods is lower (→ Foods, 2. Food Technology).
Water exists naturally as an intracellular or extracellular component in plants and animal products. It is used as a solvent for sugars, salts, and acids in some foods, as a dispersing medium for hydrophilic macromolecular carbohydrates or proteins, and as a dispersed phase in emulsified products such as butter and margarine.
Properties. Compared to other substances with similar molecular masses, water is unique (→ Water). Its ability to engage in three-dimensional hydrogen bonding enables it to bond with organic molecules that contain nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, or chlorine. The dissolution of sugar is because of bonding between water and the polar groups of the sugar. Dissolution of salts involves electrostatic forces between water and the positive ions which are greater than the attraction between ions.
Effect on Food. Water acts as a dispersing medium for amphipathic molecules, such as polar lipids, which have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups. The water associates with the hydrophilic moieties, such as phosphate groups, to solubilize
the molecules. The amphipathic molecules form macromolecular aggregates, which are called micelles. Introducing hydrophobic substances, such as apolar groups of fatty acids, amino acids, and proteins, into water leads to an association of the apolar groups, i.e., hydrophobic interactions.
Water may be present in food as free
water or bound
water. Free water behaves like pure water, whereas the behavior of bound water is limited. Bound water has been defined as water that is not available as a solvent and does not freeze at − 40 °C, although some scientists have suggested other definitions. The term water binding
has been defined as the tendency of water to associate, with various degrees of tenacity, to hydrophilic substances. Water-holding capacity
has been used to describe the ability of a matrix of molecules to entrap a large amount of water in such a manner that exudation is prevented [7]. Although the entrapped water does not flow freely from the product, it behaves very much like pure water during processing. The water-holding capacity of meats and gels have a profound effect on rheological properties. The water-holding capacity of meats is affected by pH and salts, especially phosphates. A classification of water–protein thermodynamic associations is as follows [34]:
Structural water is water that is hydrogen-bonded to specific groups; it participates in stabilization of structure and is unavailable for chemical reaction.
Hydrophobic hydration water is structured cagelike water surrounding apolar residues; like structural water, it is very much involved in stabilizing protein structure.
Monolayer water is the first adsorbed water monolayer; it is hydrogen-bonded and is unavailable as solvent, but may be available for chemical reactions; ranges from 4 to 9 g/100 g protein.
Unfreezable water includes roughly all water (structural monolayer, and perhaps some adsorbed multilayer water) that does not freeze at normal temperature; amounts to 0.3–0.5 g/g of protein and corresponds to water up to aw= 0.9; amount varies with polar amino acid content and includes some water available for chemical reactions.
Capillary water is water that is held physically in clefts or by surface forces in the protein molecule (e.g., water entrapped in gels or cheese curd); its physical properties are similar to those of bulk water.
Hydrodynamic hydration water loosely
surrounds the protein and is transported with the protein during diffusion (centrifugation); it has properties typical of normal water.
Water Activity [6]. A complete discussion of water activity can be found under → Foods, 2. Food Technology.
Perishability. A general correlation exists between the perishability of food and water content, but a better correlation exists between perishability and water activity (→ Foods, 2. Food Technology). Both enzymatic and nonenzymatic reactions tend to increase as water activity increases. However, enzymatic reactions are less sensitive to water activity changes. Nonenzymatic browning reactions reach a maximum rate at aw≈ 0.80. Lipid oxidation is inhibited by increasing water content. Under some conditions water may form a protective film around the fat. The destruction of vitamin C and chlorophyll increases rapidly as the water activity increases. The rate of vitamin B1 destruction reaches a maximum at aw≈ 0.5 [7].
Food Quality. A complete discussion of the effect of freezing the water in food has on food quality can be found under → Foods, 2. Food Technology.
3.2. Proteins (→ Amino Acids; → Proteins); [6, 7, 29, 37–44]
Structure. Proteins are polymers composed of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Proteins constitute ca. 50% of the dry matter of living cells and perform a vital role in the function and structure of the cells. Proteins containing only amino acids are called homoproteins, whereas those containing additional groups (i.e., prosthetic groups) are called heteroproteins. The heteroproteins include lipoproteins, glycoproteins, phosphoproteins, hemoproteins, metalloproteins, and nucleoproteins.
The complexity of proteins depends on the number and types of amino acids and other groups. The primary, secondary, and tertiary structures of proteins are discussed under → Proteins. The structural properties of some major food proteins are shown in Table 4.
