Fortification of mushroom with calcium by vacuum impregnation
Foods with added physiologically-active food components (PAC) are receiving special attention by their potential in disease prevention and health promotion. Additional intake of any nutrient might be achieved by the application of vacuum impregnation technique to fruits and vegetables. Viability of...
