It focuses entirely on extraction technologies and biotechnology applications for bioactives, offering no recipes or kitchen techniques. The tone is strictly scientific, aimed at undergraduates and post-graduates in food science rather than general readers or chefs. It does not suit anyone looking for cultural context, regional cuisines, or edible instructions.
