From the publisher

This book presents a comprehensive, integrated view of quality in frozen foods. It addresses quality from a number of perspectives: technological (mechanical and cryogenic methods of freezing); categorical (classification of quality loss); analytical (measurement of quality); theoretical (model building); applied (preventative treatments), and administrative (policy). The book focuses on the principles of freezing and the concepts of quality, and is therefore applicable to research and development of all types of products.
Features include: technological and fundamental features of freezing; types of deterioration that occur in frozen foods; treatment to minimize quality losses during freezing and storage; methods to assess quality losses; strategies that impact a frozen product's quality and ultimate consumer acceptance.

First line

Freezing has long been established as an excellent method of preserving high quality in foods.

From the rear cover

Transcending the boundaries of product identity, this comprehensive reference provides an integrated view of quality issues in frozen foods. It addresses the principles of freezing and the concepts of quality from a variety of different perspectives, including: technological (mechanical and cryogenic methods of freezing), categorical (classification of quality losses), analytical (measurement of quality), theoretical (model building), applied (preventive treatments), and administrative (policy). Not previously found in other publications, this book offers an enhanced concentration on the principles of frozen food quality. The book's organization provides the food industry and academic professionals, as well as students, an expanded resource of information that may be applicable to their specific commodity of interest. Consequently, these individuals will find value in the entire book rather that just one chapter.
