T.P. Guinee, PhD
Timothy P. Guinee is a Principal Research Officer in Food Chemistry and Technology at Teagasc Food Research Centre, Moorepark, Fermoy, Cork, Ireland and adjunct professor at University College Cork. His interests include the study of the rheology and functional properties of composite high protein food matrices, and the exploitation of these properties in food manufacture and assembly/formulation, with particular emphasis on gels and cheese-based systems.
T.M. Cogan, PhD
Timothy Cogan is an emeritus Senior Principal Research Officer at the Moorepark Research Centre, Teagasc, Fermoy, Ireland and emeritus professor in the Department of Food Microbiology, University College Cork. His main Research interests during his research career were starters and the microbiology of cheese and butter, particularly lactic butter.
This book provides comprehensive coverage of the scientific aspects of cheese, emphasizing fundamental principles. The book's updated 22 chapters cover the chemistry and microbiology of milk for cheesemaking, starter cultures, coagulation of milk by enzymes or by acidification, the microbiology and biochemistry of cheese ripening, the flavor and rheology of cheese, processed cheese, cheese as a food ingredient, public health and nutritional aspects of cheese, and various methods used for the analysis of cheese. The book contains copious references to other texts and review articles.
