This journal publishes research on the modification, processing, and evaluation of food products and ingredients. Studies investigate the impact of various treatments and additions on the nutritional, physicochemical, antioxidant, and sensory properties of foods such as yogurt, cheese, surimi, and baked goods. Research also explores the use of novel ingredients, by-products, and processing techniques to enhance food quality, stability, and functionality, including active packaging, plant-based proteins, and natural extracts. The scope includes the analysis of bioactive compounds, antioxidant capacity, and the potential health benefits of food components.
