The past decade has seen growing interest in the use of robotic technology in the food sector. There is a strong indication that this sector and, in particular, industries dealing with meat, fish and poultry products, would make even more use of robotics if such technology were better suited to the specific needs of the food production environment. Clearly the poten­ tial is high. This book aims to provide the reader with the state of robotic ...

The food industry for many years reacted to consumer demand for more appealing and convenient food products by using additives. More recently the demands of consumers have grown to include still higher performance products but with less additives. The industry has responded accordingly. There are often significant scientific and technical obstacles to be overcome to make a product with less additives. It is these technical challenges that this...

Over the last 40 years, poultry-meat production has undergone considerable expansion in much of the developed world. The industry has changed from an essentially farm-based operation to one where economies of scale in rearing and processing have led to a high degree of operational efficiency. As a sequel to these changes, however, there is now greater emphasis on product quality, rather than mere 'production at least cost'. Also, the more rece...

All being done, we went to Mrs Shipmans, who is a great butter-woman, and I did see there the most of milke and cream, and the cleanest, that I ever saw in my life (29 May 1661). Among others, Sir Wm. Petty did tell me that in good earnest, he hath in his will left such parts of his estate to him that could invent such and such things -as among others, that could discover truly the way of milk coming into the breasts of a woman ...

This book has evolved out of experience gained during 15 years of teaching a course on fruit and vegetable marketing to Cornell University undergrad­ uates. Initially it was difficult to assemble written material that would intro­ duce the students to the industry and provide examples to illustrate market­ ing principles. Apart from a few major studies like the U. S. Department of Agriculture's survey of wholesale markets that came out in 1964...

Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis­ semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that s...

It was a great honor for us to organize ChiCat, a symposium devoted to Chiral Reactions in Heterogeneous Catalysis and to be the hostsofmore than 120 scientists coming from everywhere in the industrialized world, to celebrate together one century of existence ofInstitut Meurice. This school was established in 1892when an industrial chemist, named Albert Meurice, decided to educate practical chemists according to the perceived needs ofthe indus...

fince the early 1990s, there has been a re-birth of studies that test the neural correlates of auditory cognition with a unique emphasis on the use of awake, behaving animals as models. Continuing today, how and where in the brain neural correlates of auditory cognition are formed is an intensive and active area of research.  Importantly, our understanding of the role that the cortex plays in hearing has the potential to impact the next genera...
