Introduction

Food safety and quality research is an important component of modern food science because it addresses the scientific principles used to evaluate, maintain, and improve the safety and quality of food products. The field incorporates analytical approaches, quality assessment, food processing, preservation, microbiological and chemical safety, and technologies supporting reliable food production. Researchers working in this area contribute to the evidence base used by academia, industry, regulators, and other stakeholders.[1]

Research Profile

The supplied research profile reports 20 documents, 196 citations, and an h-index of 9. These metrics are commonly used to describe publication activity and citation-based visibility within indexed scholarly literature. However, bibliometric indicators can be influenced by factors such as publication age, database coverage, research discipline, collaboration patterns, and citation practices. They should therefore be interpreted as indicators rather than as complete measures of research quality.[1]
