Foreword
Currently,thegrowthrateofworldpopulationisaround1.0%,whichcouldaddabout80millionmorepeopleperyear.As
aconsequence,theincreaseindemandforthefoodwillbedirectlyproportional.But,withdecreaseinlandareaavailable
for food crops cultivation, water shortage, and other problems associated with climate change, there will be huge chal-
lenges in meeting this demand for food production. One other task is to achieve sustainable production under the
aforementionedlimitations. Inthiscontext,thebestavailablealternativeistomeetthedemandnotintermsofincreasing
thequantity ofthefoodproduce,butby improvingthenutrient contentoftheavailable foodproduce. Sucha technology
wouldhelptomeettheenergyandnutrientneedsoftheincreasinghumanpopulationwithavailablefoodproduction.This
wouldalsoaidinovercomingthedependenceonresourceintensiveagriculture,whichcoulddamagethehealthofglobal
environment. So, is there such technology available is the question in front of us at this critical juncture.
Dr.KuddusandDr.NoeAguilar,renownedscientistsininternationalarenainfoodtechnologyandeditorsofthisbook
on Value-Addition in Food Products and Processing Through Enzyme Technology, critically analyzed this question and
havepresentedapromisingsolution,whichalsoisbasedonsustainability.Outwardlythesolutiontheysuggest,theuseof
enzyme technology might appear as old. But, the innovative way they chose the different chapters for the book reflects
theirinsightindealingthequestion.Thebookchapterswidelycovertheinnovationsinenzyme-mediatedfoodprocessing
toimprovetheirnutritivevalueandaswelltheapplicationofenzymetechnologyforvalueadditionintheprocessedfoods,
such as nutraceuticals and functional foods to meet the energy needs of the growing population. Chapters on bio-
prospection of novel enzymes and future perspectives give the reader the possibility of exploring more on this in future.
Further, authors from 10 different countries representing North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia
pooled their expertise and have contributed in a collaborative manner, which is additional strength of this book.
Thisbookisaboonforstudentsandyoungresearcherswhoareinterestedinupdatingtheirknowledgeontheemerging
technologiesaswellastousetheavailableliteratureasbasisfortheirresearchprojects.Further,thecontentsofthisbook
make it suitable for adoption in graduate programs on food and nutrition technology in international universities. The
concepts and the technology discussed in the book could be a key factor, leading to mind change in research and
administrative personnel of the food industry to develop functional, nutritive, and value-added food products through
innovations and by employing modern tools to search for novel enzymes and novel products.
Myheartycongratulationstoeditors,Dr.KuddusandDr.Aguilar,andallcontributingauthorsofthebookchapters.I
am confident that this book will have a strong positive impact on all readers.
