Abstract: A rigorous renovation and upgrade of the 1962 (7th) edition of this reference work provides numerous specific analytical methods, information, and guidelines to assist cereal chemists in the characterization and quality control of cereal products. These methods include: fat acidity; analysis of various acids (inorganic, fatty, organic); admixtures of flours; total ash in various products; baking quality tests; carbon dioxide determinations; analyses of color, pigments, drugs, egg solids; various enzymes activities; experimental milking methods; the determination of crude fat, fiber, gluten and various inorganic constituents; task panel tests; assessments of various contaminants (microorganisms, mycotoxins, pesticide and herbicide residues); sampling characteristics (sample preparations, sampling techniques, solids, solutions, specific volume, statistical principles); assessments of product quality (physical dough tests; other physical tests; physiological tests; special properties of fats, oils, and shortenings; staleness); and analytical methods for soybean protein, starch, sugars, vitamins, and water hydration quality. Each method delineates its scope, apparatus and reagent needs, procedure, and relevant literature references. Illustrations, equations, and tables are included where necessary. (wz).
