Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of Foods delves into the processes and biotechnologies of the beverage industry. It examines innovative approaches to advancing the sector, highlighting the connection between biotechnologies and processes that enhance beverage quality. A key focus is on identifying and characterizing the effect of the applied biotechnologies on production processes, including their impact on beverage quality in terms of volatile and non-volatile chemical compounds, and how these compounds interact to shape the overall sensory experience. This special issue also explores the broader area of environmental sustainability, emphasizing the enhancement of production efficiency through innovative biotechnologies.
