This book examines recent developments in the area of fruit technology including: postharvest physiology and storage; novel processing technologies applied to fruits; and in-depth coverage on processing, packaging, and nutritional quality of tropical and sub-tropical fruits. This contemporary handbook uniquely presents current knowledge and practices in the value chain of tropical and subtropical fruits world-wide, covering production and post-harvest practices, innovative processing technologies, packaging, and quality management.  \u003cp\u003eChapters are devoted to each major and minor tropical fruit (mango, pineapple, banana, papaya, date, guava, passion fruit, lychee, coconut, logan, carombola) and each citrus and non-citrus sub-tropical fruit (orange, grapefruit, lemon\/lime, mandarin\/tangerine, melons, avocado, kiwifruit, pomegranate, olive, fig, cherimoya, jackfruit, mangosteen). Topical coverage for each fruit is extensive, including: current storage and shipping practices; shelf life extension and quality; microbial issues and food safety aspects of fresh-cut products; processing operations such as grading, cleaning, size-reduction, blanching, filling, canning, freezing, and drying; and effects of processing on nutrients and bioavailability. With chapters compiled from experts worldwide, this book is an essential reference for all professionals in the fruit industry.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContributors ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Overview, Innovative Technologies and Quality Management \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Introduction and Overview 3\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAdel Kader and Muhammad Siddiq\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Postharvest Physiology and Storage 17\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMarta Montero-Calder\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eón and María de Milagro Cerdas-Araya\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Enzymes in Quality and Processing of Tropical and Subtropical Fruits 35\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAllan Liavoga and Norm Joseph Matella\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Phytochemicals and Bioactive Compounds in Tropical and Subtropical Fruits 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSsonko Umar Lule and Wenshui Xia\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Novel Processing Technologies for Fruits 71\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJasim Ahmed and Ferhan Ozadali\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Quality Management, ISO 22000:2005 and HACCP in Fruit Processing and Packaging 97\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eIoannis S.
