内容説明

Defining lipids from several general and detailed perspectives, Chemistry of Oils and Fats: Sources, Composition, Properties and Uses discusses their major food and non-food uses and explains how the consumption of these fats affect health and well-being in both quantitative and qualitative terms. The book describes these materials in molecular terms and explores how nature produces these molecules and how we can act on nature to modify the materials to increase their beneficial properties. It also traces how lipids are processed, from the harvesting of crops to the appearance of the oils and fats in different products in the supermarket. The author discusses the importance of minor products present in the fats that we consume. This book examines the chemical and biological syntheses as well as the physical, chemical, and nutritional properties of lipids. It also describes analytical techniques used and demonstrates the independent and comparative analysis of various types of oils and fats. Chemistry of Oils and Fats: Sources, Composition, Properties and Uses provides a broad source of reference on oils and fats chemistry for graduates entering the food and oleochemical industries, postgraduate researchers, and nutritionists.

内容説明

The three major macronutrients are proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids (oils and fats). This book is devoted to lipids, which are an important part of life for all of us. What are these materials in molecular terms? Where do they come from? What happens to them between the harvesting of crops and the appearance of the oils and fats in different products in the supermarket? How does nature produce these molecules and can we act on nature to modify the materials to increase their beneficial properties? How important are the minor products present in the fats that we consume? Since oils and fats vary, how can we analyse them? What are their physical, chemical and nutritional properties? How do the fats that we consume affect our health and well-being in both quantitative and qualitative terms? What are their major food and non-food uses? This book provides a broad source of reference on oils and fats chemistry for graduates entering the food and oleochemical industries, postgraduate researchers and nutritionists. It offers a point of entry to the detailed literature.
