The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The underlying principles of acoustic scanning/acoustic microscopy are reviewed, underpinning a discussion of the operation and application of acoustic microscopy and scanning to food materials. The construction of a versatile scanning acoustic platform (VSAP) capable of imaging over a wide range of scales, from centimetres to micrometres, is described in detail. Applications of the technique to the study of meat, food emulsion stability, and in-vivo study of plant cells are described. Future developments in conjunction with optical techniques (acousto-optics) are also reviewed. © 2013 Woodhead Publishing Limited All rights reserved.
