This book provides a cutting-edge scientific overview of Chinese liquor, also known as Baijiu. Chinese liquor is one of the world's most ancient fermented alcoholic beverages. Fermented foods and beverages are consumed worldwide as an indispensable constituent in our daily life. However, most fermented foods rely on traditional techniques with limited known scientific knowledge. These indigenous processes are typically empirical without scientifically-based control and technological insights. The book analyses Chinese liquor processing on the three most important disciplines of fermented foods: process technology/engineering, flavor chemistry, and microbiology. It also addresses the perspectives and future research needs associated with spontaneous fermented foods. This book offers a deep understanding of the science of Chinese liquor production to students, researchers, and related practitioners both in the academic and the industry. It would also benefit many other fields of fermented foods for their optimization, standardization, and modernization.
Dr. Yan Xu is Professor and Director of the laboratory of brewing microbiology and applied enzymology (LBMAE), school of biotechnology, Jiangnan University, China. Prof. Xu has been working in the field of indigenous fermented foods for over 30 years, mainly focusing on flavor chemistry and brewing microbiology of Chinese liquor. He published more than 300 articles and reviews in recent 10 years, and some of them are in highly-regarded journals including Biotechnology Advances, Trends in Food Science & Technology, Chemical Engineering Journal, EMBO Journal, Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, Applied and Environmental Microbiology, mSystems and Food Chemistry, etc. He has been serving as the vice president of China Alcoholic Drinks Association for 10 years. He is now the editors-in-chief of Systems Microbiology and Biomanufacturing and editorial board members of Food Bioengineering, Acta microbiologica Sinica and Food and Fermentation Industries, etc. He is the only scholar who won the second prize of national technological innovation in the field of Baijiu research. Prof. Xu also holds more than 100 authorized invention patents, and won the Silver Medal of National Invention Award and First
Prize of Technological Invention of the Ministry of Education for his innovative contributions in production and research of Baijiu. In 2019, Prof. Xu was selected as the fellow of the Division of Agricultural and Food Chemistry of the American Chemistry Society (ACS).
