Trends in Animal-Based Foods

Animal-based foods are an important source of essential nutrients for people worldwide. Advances in processing technology and engineering, fermented food and microbiological aspects, digitization, AI tools, traceability, non-bovine milk and more are crucial to facing the challenge of building a sustainable food system for the future of our planet. Trends in Animal-Based Foods focuses on the exploitation of animal-based products through extensive research, analysis, and technological advancement. With a vision for improving the quality and functionality of meat, poultry, fish and dairy products, this book will cover advanced biotechnological tools and techniques for animal product identification, including emerging dairy processing, waste and by-product utilization, biotechnological potential, yoghurt fortification, detection methods of milk powder adulteration, and sensor technology. Unlike the existing literature on animal products, this book focuses on the latest research areas, technological advancement, and sustainable biotransformation of these foods. In addition, the book provides theoretical and practical information to present the various aspects of animal-based foods and some alternatives. Trends in Animal-based Foods will be a valuable resource for researchers, dairy technologists, food technologists, students, and professionals working on sustainable and effective utilization of animal-based products as well as their wastes and by-products.
