Food Rheology: Scientific Development and Importance To Food Industry
Food Rheology: Scientific Development and Importance To Food Industry
dependent on the amount of water insoluble solids, the area of the large particles
and in the concentrated region also on the hardness of the particles. One chapter
(Chapter 8) has been included in the book, which deals with the rheology of di-
etary fiber (DF) suspensions and how the microstructural properties influence it.
Most of the rheology books do not deal with practical applications in food
product developments. There is hardly any singular book where attempts are
made to show theoretical concepts of rheology and practical applications in
food systems in detail. An impressive development has been observed in the
area of food rheology measurement in last two decades and some fields are
coming up with huge potential. Areas like tribology, extensional rheology,
LAOS measurement, nanoemulsion, gluten-free dough rheology, food gelation
have created interest among professionals and food/biopolymer industries. This
book provides a comprehensive overview of these most prominent areas of re-
search in food rheology. All these topics are compiled in this book, and we do
believe the book will be helpful to professionals and students who are interested
in the advancement in food rheology.
