Functional foods offer specific benefits that enhance life and promote longevity, and the active compounds responsible for these favorable effects can be analyzed through a range of techniques. Handbook of Analysis of Active Compounds in Functional Foods presents a full overview of the analytical tools available for the analysis of active ingredients in these products.

Nearly 100 experts from all over the world explore an array of methodologies for investigating and evaluating various substances, including:






Amino acids, peptides, and proteins, along with glutamine, taurine, glutathione, carnitine, and creatine
Water- and fat-soluble vitamins and probiotics
Terpenes, including hydrocarbon carotenoids and oxycarotenoids (xanthophylls)
Phenolic compounds such as flavonoids, flavan-3-ols, proanthocyanidins, stilbenes, resveratrol, anthocynanins, isoflavones, tannins, ellagic acid, and chlorogenic acids
Fibers and polysaccharides, including chitosan, insoluble dietary fiber, fructans, inulin, pectin, and cyclodextrins
Phytoestrogens and hormones, with chapters on anise oil and melatonin
Tetrapyrroles, minerals, and trace elements
Lipid compounds, with discussions of omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acids, lecithin, sterols, stanols, lipoic acid, and alliin
Sweeteners, salt replacers, and taste-modifying compounds

Each chapter describes the specific compound and its benefits, surveys the range of analytic techniques available, and provides ample references to facilitate further study. The book follows a convenient format with well-organized chapters, allowing readers to quickly hone in on specific topics of interest. This comprehensive reference provides a complete survey of the most cutting-edge analytical techniques available for researchers, industry professionals, and regulators.

Leo M. L. Nollet received MS (1973) and PhD (1978) degrees in biology from the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. Dr. Nollet is the editor and associate editor of numerous books on food science. Fidel Toldrá was awarded the 2002 International Prize for Meat Science and Technology by the International Meat Secretariat (IMS) and the Distinguished Research Award in 2010 by the American Meat Science Association (AMSA).
