Features: To adapt to the rapid development trend of food additives towards natural sources, this manual specially selects nearly 1,000 natural food additives permitted for use in various countries. It includes 13 categories such as nutritional fortifiers, flavor enhancers, emulsifiers, preservatives and antioxidants. Many of the selected products are new formulations obtained through advanced technologies such as ultrafiltration, supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, chromatographic separation, and biosynthesis. Therefore, this book provides references for the production of these novel natural food additives and also offers guidance on the application of these natural additives in the development of new food products and food processing.
