Functional and Nutritional Properties of Agricultural Products
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Agricultural products are the basis of nutrition and support normal metabolism against different pathologies. The nutritional value and functional properties of agricultural products are mainly related to foods rich in active ingredients that contribute to maintaining good health. The nutritional properties and the active principles obtained from agricultural products can play an important role in the body by performing various health and metabolic functions. This Topic encourages the submission of high-quality research articles and reviews covering recent advances in the nutritional and functional characterization of agricultural products and derived compounds used in healthy foods. Potential topics for this Topic include but are not limited to the following: Production of agricultural foods with high nutritional and functional potential; Influence of processing technologies on nutritional and functional properties of agricultural foods; Bioactive compounds with functional roles derived from agricultural products; Extraction, identification, and quantification techniques for bioactive compounds derived from agricultural products; Methods for supplementing foods with biocompounds derived from agricultural products; Relationship between the bioactive compounds of agricultural products and health.
