Author(s): Isabella R. Moretti

Probiotics and prebiotics play a crucial role in maintaining gut health and supporting immune function. Probiotics are beneficial microorganisms, while prebiotics are non-digestible food components that promote the growth of these microorganisms. Together, they contribute to a balanced gut microbiota and improved overall health. This article discusses the importance of probiotics and prebiotics in modern nutrition and food science. This article discusses the role of food biotechnology in modern food science and its contribution to sustainable food production. Improper post-harvest practices can lead to significant food losses, reduced nutritional value, and economic challenges. The application of appropriate post-harvest technologies enhances food safety, extends shelf life, and ensures year-round availability of food products. This article discusses the role of post-harvest technology in improving food quality and reducing post-harvest losses.
