30/06/2014: QAS Special Issue od conference papers

The Quality Assurance and Safety of Crops & Foods Journal (QAS Volume 6, Issue 3 - September 2014) is now available and features a special issue on 'Food Chemistry and Safety'. 

Edited by Hamit Köksel and Vural Gökmen, both from Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey, the research papers presented were selected from invited presentations in association with the EuroFoodChem XVII Conference, which took place May 7-10, 2013 in Istanbul. 

The 10 papers included in this special issue were selected from the papers recommended through an external peer-review process and encompass the latest research trends and findings on the emerging topics of food chemistry and safety.

The papers in this special issue describe the recent advancements on analytical methodologies for the determination of nanomaterials in complex samples; safety assessment of engineered metallic nanoparticles in foods; performance of multiplex dipstick immunoassay for screening mycotoxins in cereals; analytical challenges in food chemistry proficiency tests; application of e-nose technique for food quality control using novel oligopeptides based materials and evaluation of safety risks in thermal processing of foods considering processing contaminants such as acrylamide. 

In addition, some papers describe the production and characterisation of resistant starch and its utilisation as food ingredient, thermolysis products of potato starch as potential prebiotics and anovel cereal fiber drink as a tool for prevention of civilisation disease. 

This special issue highlighting outstanding recent advances in the field of food chemistry. will at the same time look forward to the next EuroFoodChem XVIII conference to be held in Madrid, Spain, 13-16 October 2015.
