Search advice


The following notes provide guidance on searching the Food Science Central website.

Simple search

An easy-to-use site-search facility is available at top left on all screens. Type in your search term(s) and select the section of the website you wish to search

  • Whole site

  • Articles (including product information but excluding Internet Links)

  • Internet Links only

  • FSTA Direct (searches the Food Science and Technology Abstracts® database and displays the titles of 10 FSTA Direct records)


Click on Go or press enter to perform the search.

If you enter more than word, the search is treated as a phrase search. For example, the search genetic modification looks for the occurrence of this phrase in the website.

Boolean searches are performed using lower case for the operators and, or, and not. For example the searches


  • bread and probiotic will find only those records where the two words are both present,

  • bread not probiotic will find only those records where bread is found and probiotic is not,

  • bread or probiotic will find those records where one or both terms are present.

Use quotation marks to search for phrases that include boolean operators. For example the search "oils and fats" will find all occurrences of the phrase.

Advanced search

Advanced search uses a similar syntax for searches but also allows keyword searching and more precise selection of sections of the website to search in.

Keywords can be selected from the list by clicking on them one at a time. If more than one keyword is required the appropriate boolean operator can also be selected from the drop down menu at the foot of the list.
