However, this fourth edition marks several transitions.
Perhaps, most important is the recognition of Owen Fennema’s contributions to this text and to the field of food chemistry in general. His timely introduction of the first edition of Food Chemistry over 30 years ago, in 1976, filled a long-standing void of a comprehensive text that could serve as both an instructional tool and a desk reference for professionals. To us, it seems only fitting to now recognize this text as Fennema’s Food Chemistry, as a tribute to his long-lasting contributions to the field through the three pervious editions of this text. Since professor Fennema’s “retirement” in 1996, he has remained professionally active, while engaging in more earthly pursuits of global travel, craftsmanship with wood, and stained glass artisanship.
While he has been active with the planning of this edition as a coeditor, he entrusted us to assume most of the day-to-day editorial responsibilities. We are humbled, and needless to say that given the high standards set by professor Fennema in the previous editions, we are cognizant of the lofty expectations that likely exist for the fourth edition. Professor Fennema is a hard act to follow, and we hope our effort will not disappoint. This edition not only marks a transition in editorial responsibilities, but also in contributing authors, as several former authors have retired or are approaching retirement.
New (co)contributors appear for chapters on “Water and Ice,” “Carbohydrates,” “Lipids,” “Enzymes,” and “Colorants.” Some chapters have also evolved in terms of focus and include “Postmortem Physiology of Edible Muscle Tissues,” “Postharvest Physiology of Edible Plant Tissues,” “Bioactive Substances: Nut- raceuticals and Toxicants” (formerly “Toxic Substances”), and “Physical and Chemical Interactions of Components in Food Systems” (formerly “Summary: Integrative Concepts”), all with new (co)contributors. An added chapter appears on “Impact of Biotechnology on Food Supply and Quality.” We are indebted to the contributing authors of this volume for their patience and professionalism in dealing with new editors and for paying serious attention to the needs for chapter updates. It is hoped that both new and faithful readers of this text will find it useful, and be constructive by directing any comments regarding the content of this book (as well as identifying inevitable printing errors) to our attention.

A consulting editor for the Food Science and Technology series (Marcel Dekker, Inc.), he is a fellow of the Insti- tute of Food Technologists and of the Agriculture and Food Chemistry Division of the American Chemical Society, and a member of the American Institute of Nutrition, among other organizations. Fennema received the BS degree (1950) in agriculture from Kansas State University, Manhattan, the MS degree (1951) in dairy science, and PhD degree (1960) in food science and biochemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Sinivasan Damodaran is a professor of food chemistry and chair of the Department of Food Science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
He is editor of the book Food Proteins and Lipids (Plenum Press) and co-editor of the book Food Proteins and Their Applications (with Alain Paraf) (Marcel Dekker, Inc.) and the author/coauthor of 6 patents and over 125 professional papers in his research areas, which include protein chemistry, enzymology, surface and colloidal science, process technologies, and industrial biodegradable polymers. He is a fellow of the Agriculture and Food Chemistry Division of the American Chemical Society and a member of the Institute of Food Sci- ence and the American Oil Chemists Society. He is on the editorial board of Food Biophysics journal. Srinivasan Damodaran received his BSc degree (1971) in chemistry from University of Madras, Madras, India, the MSc degree (1975) in food technology from Mysore University, Mysore, India, and PhD degree (1981) from Cornell University, Ithaca, New York.
Parkin is currently professor in the Department of Food Science of the University of Wisconsin (Madison, Wisconsin, USA), where he has been on the faculty for over 21 years. He has been the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences Fritz Friday Chair of Vegetable Processing Research since 1998, and was elected Fellow of the Agricultural and Food Chemistry Division of the American Chemical Society in 2003. Parkin’s research and teaching interests revolve around food chemistry and biochemistry, with about 80 refereed journal publications in the areas of marine food biochemistry, postharvest physiology and processing of fruit and vegetable products, fundamental and applied enzymology, and most recently in the area of characterizing health-promoting and bioactive phytochemicals from foods of botanical origin. At UW-Madison, Dr.
Parkin has been an instructor for undergraduate courses in Food Chemistry, Discovery Food Chemistry Laboratory, as well as for graduate courses in Food Enzymes and Lipids. He has supervised the completion of 10 Ph. graduate degree programs, and serves as associate editor for Journal of Food Science, and on the editorial board of Food Research International, Food Biochemistry, and the Journal of Food Processing and Preservation.

Food science deals with the physical, chemical, and biological properties of foods as they relate to stability, cost, quality, processing, safety, nutritive value, wholesomeness, and convenience. Food science is a branch of biological science and an interdisciplinary subject involving primarily microbi- ology, chemistry, biology, and engineering.
Food chemistry, a major aspect of food science, deals with the composition and properties of food and the chemical changes it undergoes during handling, pro- cessing, and storage. Food chemistry is intimately related to chemistry, biochemistry, physiological chemistry, botany, zoology, and molecular biology. The food chemist relies heavily on knowledge of the aforementioned sciences to effectively study and control biological substances as sources of human food. Knowledge of the innate properties of biological substances and mastery of the means of manipulating them are common interests of both food chemists and biological scientists.
The primary interests of biological scientists include reproduction, growth, and changes that biological substances undergo under environmental conditions that are compatible or marginally compatible with life. To the contrary, food chemists are concerned primarily with biological substances that are dead or dying (postharvest physiology of plants and postmortem physiology of muscle) and changes they undergo when exposed to a wide range of environmental conditions.
