This book incorporates the most recent advances in the three major sectors of
the field within one volume. Genomics, proteomics, and metobolomics represent
scientific research areas that contribute to nutraceutical and functional food
research for studies of effectiveness and safety. The nutraceutical and
functional food field is rapidly growing in diverse sectors, including academic,
commercial and government. It is becoming increasingly evident that genomic
research technologies will be increasingly used in the coming years and there is
a need to provide resources that will facilitate this growth.
