SPICES AS FLAVOURS, FRAGRANCES & FUNCTIONAL FOODS - INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SPICES AND AROMATIC CROPS X - symsac
Introduction
Spices and aromatic herbs have been used since antiquity as preservatives, colorants, and
flavour enhancers. Spices are key dietary ingredients used in cuisines across the world. They
have long been the basis of traditional medicine in many countries, have also been the subject
of study, particularly by the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries, because of their
potential use in improving health and wellness.
Global spice trade has been continuously increasing in the previous three decades, both in
terms of volume and value. Though the definition of spice trade offers scope for diverse
interpretations, the global spice trade is estimated to be more than 50 billion USD at present.
This includes spices and the spice extracts like spice oils and oleoresins, which are finding
ever increasing applications across pharmaceutical and wellness industry. The current global
spice market is characterised by highly concentrated nature of supply and diversified demand.
The International Symposium on Spices as Flavours, Fragrances & Functional Foods
(SYMSAC-X) will bring together the world’s leading spices scientists and other stakeholders
for one of its kind program that will set the stage for true innovations in this sector. The
SYMSAC X was earlier scheduled during 6 to 9 May 2020 at ICAR- Central Marine Fisheries
Research Institute, Kochi, Kerala but was postponed due to Covid 19 pandemic.
