Next-Generation Food Preservation: Microbial, Nano, and AI Technologies is an essential resource for food scientists, microbiologists, and technologists seeking innovative solutions to extend the shelf life of food sustainably. As global food security becomes increasingly critical, traditional preservation methods often fall short in efficiency, safety, and environmental impact.

This book explores how cutting-edge approaches-leveraging beneficial microbes, green nanomaterials, and intelligent AI-driven analytics-are revolutionizing food chemistry and preservation practices. It provides a comprehensive understanding of the convergence of microbiology, nanotechnology, and artificial intelligence, offering practical insights into their application for safer, longer-lasting food products. The book is organized into five parts, covering foundational concepts, advanced modeling and optimization techniques, encapsulation and smart packaging innovations, industry case studies, and ethical and regulatory considerations. Topics include microbial synergisms, nanomaterial applications, AI-enabled fermentation control, predictive risk assessment, and sector-specific successes in nano-coatings and intelligent packaging. It also discusses societal, ethical, and legal implications, highlighting future directions for sustainable food preservation.

Next-Generation Food Preservation serves as a vital guide for researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers committed to adopting innovative, eco-friendly strategies that ensure food safety, reduce waste, and support global food security through technological advancement.

Dr. S Rehan Ahmad is a multidisciplinary scientist whose research bridges microbiology, medicinal chemistry, neurobiology, and precision medicine. Earning his Ph.D. in Microbiology, his pioneering work explores the pharmacogenomics and microbiome-based modulation of neurodegenerative diseases, with a focus on plant-derived therapeutics and molecular docking-driven drug discovery. His research integrates molecular microbiology, analytical chemistry (HPLC–MS), bioinformatics, and nanobiotechnology to advance novel therapeutic strategies. He holds over 30 patents and has published more than 60 peer-reviewed articles in high-impact journals, including Nature, Elsevier, Wiley, Springer, Frontiers and MDPI. He has edited two books published by Elsevier: The Gut Microbiome in Precision Medicine: From Research to Clinical Practice which focuses on the gut microbiome’s role in health, and Precision Medicine in Neurodegenerative Diseases: From Research to Clinical Practice, covering personalized medicine for neurodegenerative disorders. His editorial experience is extensive, serving as Academic Editor for PLOS ONE, Editorial Board Member for over 15 international journals, and Guest Editor for JoVE. Recognized for his academic leadership, he serves as Coordinator of the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) Study Centre (28166), Centre Superintendent (28166), and Convenor of multiple institutional committees including the Research & Development Cell (RDC), Intellectual Property Rights Cell (IPR), and Institution’s Innovation Council (Ministry of Education, Government of India). His teaching experience spans over 12 years in microbiology, neurobiology, medicinal biochemistry, food chemistry, and bioinformatics, mentoring more than 40 postgraduates and three doctoral researchers. Dr. Entesar Hanan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Food Technology at Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi. Her research interests span waste valorization, functional and nutraceutical food development, food nanotechnology, encapsulation technologies, food microbiology, and advanced preservation techniques, with a strong emphasis on contributing to Sustainable Development Goals and reducing lifestyle disease risk. A recipient of the prestigious DST-INSPIRE Fellowship (2017–2022) and a qualified ISO 22000:2015 Lead Auditor, Dr. Hanan brings valuable industry experience from the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI) and Danone.
