With the focus on Vitamin A and Carotenoids, this book includes the latest research in these areas and starts with an overview putting the compounds in context with other vitamins, supplementation and discussing the importance of beta-carotene. Details of the chemistry, structure and biochemistry of the compounds begins with nomenclature followed by information on encapsulation, thermal degradation and occurrence. Developments in analytical and bioanalytical techniques concerning these compounds in plant, milk and human tissue systems are covered in detail. Finally, the book covers the extensive functions and effects of Vitamin A on eg developmental growth, immune function, cancer risk, the brain and lungs as well as vision. Delivering high quality information, this book will be of benefit to anyone researching this area of health and nutritional science. It will bridge scientific disciplines so that the information is more meaningful and applicable to health in general. Part of a series of books, it is specifically designed for chemists, analytical scientists, forensic scientists, food scientists, dieticians and health care workers, nutritionists, toxicologists and research academics. Due to its interdisciplinary nature it could also be suitable for lecturers and teachers in food and nutritional sciences and as a college or university library reference guide."--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Online PDF version (viewed Sept. 21, 2012). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Vitamin A|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85143952|xPhysiological effect.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00006423 650 0 Vitamin A in the body.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85143957 650 0 Carotenoids.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85020408 650 7 Vitamin A|xPhysiological effect.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1168152 650 7 Vitamin A.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1168150 650 7 Vitamin A in the body.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1168163 650 7 Carotenoids.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/847767 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Preedy, Victor R.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n95802455 830 0 Food and nutritional components in focus ;|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2012189614|v1. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=533605|zOnline eBook.
