Opis

Food Microbiology and Biotechnology: Safe and Sustainable Food Production explores the most important advances in food microbiology and biotechnology, with special emphasis on the challenges that the industry faces in the era of sustainable development and food security problems.

Recenzje

“An exceptional piece of work. The editors have selectively chosen the chapters covering different aspects of food microbiology and biotechnology, giving a special emphasis on the challenges that the industry faces in the era of sustainable development and food security problems. A useful guide for researchers and a quick reference for food technologists on the latest topics in food microbiology and biotechnology, including food bioprocesses, fermentation, food microbiology, functional foods, nutraceuticals, and extraction of natural products, nano- and micro-technology, innovative processes/bioprocesses for utilization of by-products, alternative processes requiring less energy or water etc.”
