Food science information

With more than 680000 records, FSTA (Food Science and Technology Abstracts) is the largest food science database in existence. Coverage encompasses all aspects of food science, food technology and food-related human nutrition.

About 80per cent of the records added to FSTA each year include original abstracts written by the IFIS editorial team. They identify all information of food relevance in the original publication making FSTA records more valuable to food scientists than other information sources. Last year 26326 records were added to FSTA ­ the highest ever number.

The FSTA database is now available direct from IFISPublishing. The web-based search platform FSTADirect involves no set-up costs and flexible payment options open up access for all types of organisation, whatever their size and budget. The search interface is easy to use, featuring a Google-like Quick Search when time is short, or more a precise Advanced Search.

IFIS provides information products and services to the international food science, food technology and human nutrition community.

IFIS is based in Shinfield, Reading, UK. www.foodsciencecentral.com
