- Information about the special issue
Dear colleagues,
In recent years, there has been notable growth in the pursuit of functional foods, driven by awareness of the importance of diet in health and the utilization of unconventional raw materials that contribute to sustainability. As part of this trend, functional ingredients in meat products have emerged as a topic of high scientific and social interest. The initial goal is to create meat products that resemble conventional ones regarding sensory experience yet incorporate new ingredients or processes to enhance their health benefits and sustainability.
This special issue of the TECNOCIENCIA Chihuahua Journal aims to explore the most recent research and discoveries in the field of functional meat products. This special issue will cover subjects such as incorporating bioactive ingredients and their effects on consumer health, optimizing production processes, evaluating novel formulations, and implementing conventional and non-conventional technologies to improve meat products' nutritional and functional aspects while ensuring sustainability.
