Food Structural Assessment by Magnetic Resonance
Within the domain of food structure one seeks to unravel the structural organisation and dynamics of components in food stuffs. This represents a challenge due to the large range of distance and time scales that are involved. A relatively simple example is given in Figure 1A where the different (length) scales of structural organisation in cereals are represented. The starch in cereal kernels such as wheat and rice, for example, is organized in starch granules which contain ... Continue reading
