Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This special issue focuses on high-quality research of food processing technology and nutrition, with special attention to structure-digestibility relationship of food components. The research concerning innovative food processing and technology and their health-promoting benefits toward global sustainability are especially interested, such as using food approved components for developments and characterizations of nanomaterials related to foods and food products.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but not limited to) the following:
- Starch structure-digestibility relationship
- Functional properties of novel food ingredients and components
- Nanomaterials related to foods and food products and the applications
- Green synthesis of starch nanoparticles and the applications
- Novel food processing techniques and applications
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Hung-Ju Liao
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
