Statistical Methods for Food Science Introductory procedures for the food practitioner

Statistical Methods for Food Science: Introductory procedures for the food practitioner By John A. Bower(auth.)
2009 | 314 Pages | ISBN: 1405167645 | PDF | 5 MB
The recording and analysis of food data are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Consequently, the food scientist in industry or at study faces the task of using and understanding statistical methods. Statistics is often viewed as a difficult subject and is often avoided because of its complexity and a lack of specific application to the requirements of food science. This situation is changing - there is now much material on multivariate applications for the more advanced reader, but a case exists for a univariate approach aimed at the non-statistician. This book provides a source text on accessible statistical procedures for the food scientist, and is aimed at professionals and students in food laboratories where analytical, instrumental and sensory data are gathered and require some form of summary and analysis before interpretation. It is suitable for the food analyst, the sensory scientist and the product developer, and others who work in food-related disciplines involving consumer survey investigations will also find many sections of use. There is an emphasis on a 'hands on' approach, and worked examples using computer software packages and the minimum of mathematical formulae are included. The book is based on the experience and practice of a scientist engaged for many years in research and teaching of analytical and sensory food science at undergraduate and post-graduate level.Content: Chapter 1 Basics and Terminology (pages 1-13): Chapter 2 The Nature of Data and their Collection (pages 14-42): Chapter 3 Descriptive Statistics (pages 43-87): Chapter 4 Analysis of Differences - Significance Testing (pages 88-110): Chapter 5 Types of Significance Test (pages 111-136): Chapter 6 Association, Correlation and Regression (pages 137-149): Chapter 7 Experimental Design (pages 150-172): Chapter 8 Sensory and Consumer Data (pages 174-210): Chapter 9 Instrumental Data (pages 211-237): Chapter 10 Food Product Formulation (pages 238-261): Chapter 11 Statistical Quality Control (pages 262-283): Chapter 12 Multivariate Applications (pages 284-303):
