Red Beet Biotechnology: Food and Pharmaceutical Applications

Editat de Bhagyalakshmi Neelwarne
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 iul 2012
Biotechnology is a rapidly growing research area which is immediately translated into industrial applications. Although over 1000 research papers have emerged on various aspects of red beet and the chemistry of betalaines pigments, surprisingly no comprehensive book is available. The proposed Red Beet book encompasses a scholarly compilation of recent biotechnological research developments made in basic science, biochemistry of the chief components, technological developments in augmenting and recovery of such useful compounds and value-added products with discussions on future perspectives. The book will provide detailed information of the chemistry of the main components of normal and genetically engineered beetroot.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Application of advanced multidisciplinary research techniques has identified red beet as one of the super foods and a research model. This important book on red beet is the first comprehensive worldwide resource that encompasses biotechnological research advances made in the recent past.  Documenting the scientific information on the current status and future outlook, the book is a valuable source of information for researchers, students, and entrepreneurs concerned with health foods, pharmaceuticals, and modern bio-techniques. This monumental compendium was contributed by a team of expert scientists from different parts of the world. The 16 chapters of the book are a saga of current research and future perspectives, with the introductory first chapter providing an overview from historical to current status of red beet with its vast applications, which is followed by chapters on betalains biosynthesis, their stability, and other physiological studies made using this plant as a model system. Other chapters deal with morphological, technological, molecular, biochemical, and chemical engineering aspects, culminating in techno-commercial aspects of research developments made in beets.
