In the complex process of product innovation development a particular role is assigned to consumers, especially in current market conditions characterised by production growth, expanding commercial offer and civilisational and cultural changes. Product innovations in the food market are connected mainly with product development, thus with expanding and deepening commercial consumer-oriented offer to meet his/her expectations and needs related to food and nutrition. The problem of innovativeness is well established in many scientific researches that deal with the economic importance of innovations based on knowledge, signification of innovations in regional development, Polish consumer behaviour towards branch innovations and identification of commercialisation conditioning and product innovation diffusion. This is reflected also in commodity sciences, including food commodity science. The monograph entitled “Future Trends and Challenges in the Food Sector” is a part of “Commodity Science in Research and Practice” series. It is aimed at the presentation of modern perception of commodity sciences, thus evidencing that the Authors seek for innovative research solutions and applications. Monograph contains 16 chapters written by the Authors being scientists from the European commodity science centres. The monograph is published to present both the challenges that face food commodity science and observed innovative trends in this science and therefore it can be a valuable source of knowledge for practitioners and theorists of economic life as well as economics students.

Since their early years, genetically modified organisms have had a significant impact on both economic and social side. Despite of their substantial contribution for increasing the power of food and agricultural markets, GMOs had caused many cross-cultural differences, regarding their acceptance. Starting with the highlighting of the biotech risks, there are worldwide mixed opinions regarding their benefits. In this context, the main objective of this paper is to identify the main position of a developing country, regarding its GMO production, merchandising and consumption and the way in which GMO’s benefits and risks are perceived and acknowledged. Based on its GMO experience, the research was focused on Romania, a European developing country, with more than 14 years of GMO production. The secondary objectives of the research are to clarify the legislation in Romania regarding GMO based products. The legislation in this country defines GMOs as “any organism except human, whose genetic material has been altered other than by crossing and / or natural recombination or any biological entity capable of replication or of transferring genetic material." (Law 214/2002 on the regime of production, testing, use and trade of genetically modified organisms by modern biotechnology and products derived from them). On the other hand, due to ethical issues and related risks, most consumers do not accept the application of modern biotechnology to food production, although in general, the same technologies are accepted in the medical field and the environment. However, interestingly , some applications of genetic 7 engineering are more easily accepted than others in positions of perceived benefits to consumers. The present research is structured into three main parts as follows: identifying the key points regarding Romania’s production and merchandising experience in GMO based products in a global context; a case study presenting the analysis of Roundup Ready soy species distribution in Bucharest supermarkets and the results of an exploratory study on a sample of availability concerning GMO’s. The research methodology consists of the above mentioned Case Study developed in the ELISA Microbiology Laboratory of al Institute of Food Bioresources – Bucharest, the questionaire based research and the statistical data retreived

  • Chocolate-Band Snail Massylaea Vermiculata Syn
    Fact sheet Chocolate-band snail Massylaea vermiculata Syn. Eobania vermiculata Syn. Helix vermiculata Massylaea vermiculata also known as Eobania vermiculata, common name the "chocolate-band snail" is a species of large, air-breathing, land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Helicidae, the true snails or typical snails. This species of large land snail is common in the Mediterranean area and it ranges from eastern Spain to the Crimea. Department of Agriculture, Water and Environment reports that it is occasionally detected at quarantine intervention points (Wharf inspection areas) on the Chocolate band snail (Massylaea vermiculata outside of containers around Australia. Picture: Andreas Gruber. Description The colour of the shell is very variable, whitish to greenish yellow, often with multiple color bands or spots; the lower side is frequently with two brown bands and whitish between lowest band and umbilicus. The shell has 4-4.5 whorls. The width of the shell is 22–32 mm and the height is 14–24 mm. The body of the snail is gray on the dorsal side and yellowish on the ventral side. Ecological Threat With Massylaea vermiculata having a long lifespan from 2 to 5 years an established population can continually grow. The long lifespan could make this species grow from a minor concern to a major concern for native gastropod species, garden plants and agricultural crops alike. Vineyards are very threatened with Massylaea vermiculata being observed on grape plants in their native range. Management This species is considered to represent a potentially serious threat as a pest, an invasive species which could negatively affect agriculture, natural ecosystems, human health or commerce.

Nutritional value of a new type of substitute caviar Summary The caviar group of products includes a subgroup of caviar substitutes. The raw material used to manufacture a substitute called white caviar are eggs of garden snails of the Cornu aspersum species. The nutritional value of every foodstuff depends on its nutrient content and caloric value. The goal of this study was to determine the nutritional value and protein quality commercially available substitute caviar manufactured from the eggs of the Cornu genus snails. The basic composition and amino acid profile were determined according to a procedure based on international standards (ISO). The carbohydrate content and caloric value were calculated according to the literature. We established that the caviar substitute had a high water content (81.41%) and low contents of protein (4.23%), fat (0.09%), carbohydrates (6.62%), and ash (7.65%), so that its caloric value was also low (44.16 kcal/100 g). The total amount of essential amino acids was 51.13 grams per 100 grams of protein, and that of non-essential amino acids was 48.37 grams per 100 grams of protein.

Snails may be also transported from one country to another country in and on internationally traded commodities. Snails consume vegetation, but more importantly carry and spread diseases. Snails indigenous to Italy have arrived to the US on unit loads of tiles. In this study, two species of Mediterranean snails, (Cernuella cisalpina with weight of 0.096 g and Eobania vermiculata with the weight of 2.06g) were field collected in Maryland, transported to and quarantined at Virginia Tech. Unit loads of tile were inoculated with these snails and then subsequently treated with the saturated steam at the initial levels of 100, 250 and 500 mmHg. The results revealed that vacuum and steam technology can be used to kill both snails, Eobania vermiculata and Cernuella cisalpine at the temperature of 56°C with the holding time of 30 minutes in less than 61 minutes with average treating time of 51.1 minutes at the initial vacuum levels of 100 mmHg and 250 mmHg.
