Research and Markets: Advances in Flavor and Aroma Technologies - 2014 Edition

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/9d4x5g/advances_in) has announced the addition of the "Advances in Flavor and Aroma Technologies - Revised Edition" report to their offering.

To help flavorists and product developers learn about new technologies that will help them combat flavor-related product challenges, Food Technology Intelligence Inc. has revised and updated the report Advances in Flavor and Aroma Technologies. The report analyzes about five dozen flavor and aroma developments that have taken place at company, academic and government research labs around the world. This comprehensive report will let you see first-hand technologies that you can harness to optimize your flavor-related product development efforts.

Some of the processes, techniques and products examined in the report are under development and have commercial potential. Others have completed development, and their developers are looking to license the technology or collaborate in other ways to commercialize it. Yet others already are commercially available.

The successful development and marketing of more nutritious and healthy foods, and the optimal processing of products to make them microbiologically as safe as possible, are without argument two major challenges currently facing the food industry. However, while these are major concerns, a product's flavor also plays a significant role in its acceptance by consumers. Every day, flavorists, product developers and others are challenged to incorporate the most attractive flavors and aromas into products. Their goal: to attract the attention of consumers so that they purchase their products again and again.

Flavor is dynamic and elusive. The appealing aroma and flavor of freshly baked products can be lost in a day. It is important to harness flavors and aromas and incorporate them into products to make them appear fresh, wholesome and attractive to consumers for as long as possible. Just like some other compounds, flavors will react and escape from products. Once a product is on the store shelf, oxidation, hydrolysis and other processes may cause it to lose its desired attributes and develop off-flavors. Off-flavors are flavors too, and are another challenge facing product developers.

In Advances in Flavor and Aroma Technologies you'll learn about several technologies, including:

  • Fruit-flavored yogurts that are enriched with health-beneficial fish collagen.
  • Enzymes that function in microaqueous media that could lead to the development of new flavors.
  • An artificial nose that uses a neural network to analyze aromas. Industrial support is being sought to further its development.
