This new olive oil handbook provides a wealth of detail about the analysis and properties of olives and their oil. Interest in olive oil has increased markedly in recent years due to its healthy image. Because it differs from most vegetable oils in the way it is recovered and handled, oil processors and food producers require background information. This book covers technological aspects and biochemistry, a description of detailed techniques and an analysis of olive oil from the standpoint of general methodology. This book promotes the widespread utility for such analyses and contributes to an appreciation of the unique properties of olive oil including nutritional properties.
