Spectroscopic Measurement

Due to novel research on the application of bio-degradable biofilms in the packaging industry of food, starch is one of the most promising and promising sources. Starch-Based Nanomaterials for Food Packaging: Perspectives and Future Prospectus presents the properties and sources of starch- based nanomaterials, its perspectives, safety aspects, applications, and future trends. The chapters cover nanostructured materials, polysaccharide based bionanocomposites, starch based nanofibers, starch nanostructured based for food packaging application. Besides bringing nano gold imprinted starch bio nanocomposites, cereal starch-based nanoparticles, and edible packaging reinforced with starch-based nanomaterials. This is a complete resource to the food industrialists who deal directly with food packaging and fruit and vegetable preservation. - Presents measurement techniques in a concise treatment that other available literature lacks to explain - Provides the audience with engineering analogues written by an engineer to explain basic physics to engineers - Includes many new and useful graphics in the margins and boxes with supplementary material to immensely facilitate learning

Professor Mark Linne earned a Mechanical Engineering PhD at Stanford University in 1985 and as part of his thesis work he developed fiberoptic probes for laser-based absorption and fluorescence measurements of reactive species inside enclosed combustion reactors. He has been developing and using laser diagnostics for combustion, the atmosphere, and for electrochemistry ever since. He worked for 5 years as a laser development scientist at Spectra-Physics, the world's largest manufacturer of scientific lasers.
