10. Regulatory aspects of flavor development - traditional
versus bioengineered (Dr Sabine Teske and Dr James C.
Griffiths, Burdock Group, Vero Beach, Florida and Washington D.C.,
USA)

?In linking the biochemistry to the plant genetics and prospects of
bioengineering the book provides a comprehensive resource in
developing our understanding of flavor chemistry.?
(International Journal of Food Science and Technology,
September 2009)

?I enjoyed reviewing the book and highly recommend it to anyone
with an interest in biotechnology.? (Inform Magazine, June
2009)

"This book provides an overview of the current role of
biotechnology in the production of flavour compounds." (Food
Science and Technology Abstracts, 2009)

"This book is a classic example of ?once I started to read, I
could not put it down.? The references are excellent, as is the
index. Biotechnology in Flavor Production is not only meant for
people in the flavor industry, but also those using flavors, as
well as the biotechnology community." (Food & Beverage
Reporter, May 2009)

?A unique overview of the current state of the art flavor
production through biotechnology ? .Directed at food scientists and
technologists ? as well as academics.? (Food Industry News)
