New data continually indicate that antioxidants may contribute to reductions in cancer risks and that chronic consumption of low levels of chemical carcinogens in our diet may contribute to an increased risk of developing specific types of cancers. Research also shows that in America today, the leading causes of death are cancer and heart disease. Considering that diet plays a significant role in the development of both of these diseases, issues of food toxicology become particularly topical. Food Toxicology provides a comprehensive look at contemporary food toxicology issues. Its nine chapters, all authored by leading American academic experts, concisely address critical chemical food safety and food toxicology issues that emerged in the latter half of the last decade. Specifically, the book discusses food allergens and their diagnoses, biotechnology, estrogenic factors, and anti-toxicants. It also addresses more traditional topics such as pesticide residues, food additives, plant toxins, microbial toxins, and food analysis. Food Toxicology presents a comprehensive treatment of food toxicology topics of scientific, regulatory, and public interest. In essence, therefore, the book represents an up-to-date analysis of important topics that are found both at the cutting edge of science and on the front pages of newspapers. Features • Presents important topics in food safety and toxicology • Evaluates the relative risk associated with consumption of low levels of pesticides • Addresses cutting-edge developments of critical importance to the food industry and public health • Debates the merits of risk evaluation, a particularly important issue to all involved in food toxicology • Discusses the history of the development and commercialization of genetically modified foods, an issue at the forefront of international trade discussions and one which is clearly of significant interest to consumers • Discusses the potential risks and benefits of dietary estrogens and antiestrogens, concerns which are likely to form the toxicology issue of the early part of this century Contents -Food Allergies and Sensitivities -Dietary Estrogens and Antiestrogens -Nonnutrient Antitoxicants in Food -Safety of Genetically Engineered Foods -Microbial Toxins in Foods: Algal, Fungal, and Bacterial -Natural Toxins and Chemopreventives in Plants -Pesticide Residues in the Food Supply -Food Additives -Analysis of Chemical Toxicants and Contaminants in Food Index

DESCRIPTION The ability to process oils and fats to make them acceptable as part of our food supplies is a key component in our overall knowledge of them. Without this ability, the food that we consume would be totally different, and much of the flexibility available to us as a result of the application of processing techniques would be lost. Obviously we need to know how to process fatty oils, but we also need to know how best to use them once they have been processed. This volume presents, at professional and reference level, the current state of the art of the edible oils industry, focusing on the various processing stages and considering issues of both chemistry and process engineering. It considers the transformation of the oil from a vast panorama of lipids in an oilseed or an oil-bearing fruit to a functional product, highlighting the links between the different stages. Information is provided on the types and characteristics of oils to be processed, their sources, their principal fields of application and changes in the pattern of oil demand. Chapters are included on quality assurance, safety and environmental considerations. The book is written for chemists and technologists working in edible oils and fats processing; food scientists and technologists; analytical chemists and quality assurance personnel; and lipid chemists working in academic research laboratories. TABLE OF CONTENTS Composition and properties of edible oils; Bulk movement of edible oils; The production of oils; Refining practice; Oil modification processes; Quality control; Applications of edible oils; Safety; Utilities and environmental impact; Refinery location and design; References; Index.
