Food policy trends in Europe : nutrition, technology, analysis, and safety

This book provides a review of developments in food science and technology that have taken place over the years and have provided solutions to basic problems concerning the availability and quality of food. Future trends in food policy are evaluated and the impact of food regulation on trends in nutrition, techniques of safety assessment, development in analytical techniques and the use of new technologies.

In particular, it defines the extent to which the size of the attachment might influence the thickness effect in such joints. Through a whole range of different tests, the study confirms that the present thickness effect correction for certain types of joint is too severe
