食品添加剂研究现状及发展趋势

近年来食品添加剂的研究主要集中在新型安全的天然食品添加剂研究、食品添加剂制备中的新技术研究和食品添加剂的检测分析技术研究三个方面。本文概述了我国食品添加剂的现状、发展趋势及该领域的研究热点问题。同时对这两年国家自然科学基金委员会（以下简称基金委）在食品科学学科食品添加剂分支学科资助情况进行了分析，在基金申请中新型天然食品添加剂的研究受关注度较高，而利用生物技术制备天然食品添加剂这一研究热点在今年的申请和资助项目中也有体现。基金委在食品添加剂这一分支学科的资助体现了目前食品添加剂发展的趋势。

Current Status and Development Trend of Research of Food Additives

The research on food additives mainly is focusing on three areas, i.e. development of novel natural safe food additives, application of new technologies on the preparation of food additives and detection analysis of food additives. The current status, development trend and several highly concerned topics in food additives were briefly introduced and discussed. And the distribution of the projects about food additives approved by NSFC over the past 2 years was analyzed. Among all these projects about food additives, the research about novel natural food additives has been paid the relatively high attention to, and the research about the application of biotechnology on preparation of food additives has been highlighted this year. In summary, the funding support by NSFC in this discipline is in line with the development trend of food additives.
