Opis

'Structure of Dairy Products' covers all major aspects of the structure of dairy products, including details of the use of techniques such as scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.

Recenzje

?This book provides an important and valuable contribution to understanding the structure of dairy products. Every chapter provides a comprehensive up–to–date reference list, effectively the date of production. Unquestionably a major plus point of this book is the perfect quality of the micrographs representing different microscopic techniques used when investigating the microstructure of milk and dairy products.? ( Journal of Dairy Technology, February 2008)

"Structure of Dairy Products provides a timely and comprehensive review of understanding the micro structure of milks and milk products. In the last 30 years great interest is seen, in the structure of dairy products and at the same time different techniques have been developed to visualise the properties of these products. The book is multi–author text containing chapters that summarise recent findings for each dairy product"

Structure of Dairy Products
SOCIETY OF DAIRY TECHNOLOGY SERIES
Edited by A. Y. Tamime

The Society of Dairy Technology (SDT) has joined with Blackwell Publishing to produce a series of technical dairy–related handbooks providing an invaluable resource for all those involved in the dairy industry; from practitioners to technologists working in both traditional and modern large–scale dairy operations.

The previous 30 years have witnessed great interest in the microstructure of dairy products, which has a vital bearing on, e.g. texture, sensory qualities, shelf life and packaging requirements of dairy foods. During the same period, new techniques have been developed to visualise clearly the properties of these products. Hence, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) have been used as complimentary methods in quality appraisal of dairy products, and are used for product development and in trouble shooting wherever faults arise during manufacturing.

Structure of Dairy Products, an excellent new addition to the increasingly well–known and respected SDT series, offers the reader:
information of importance in product development and quality control
internationally known contributing authors and book editor
thorough coverage of all major aspects of the subject
core, commercially useful knowledge for the dairy industry

Edited by Adnan Tamime, with contributions from international authors, this book is an essential purchase for dairy scientists and technologists, food scientists and technologists, food chemists, physicists, rheologists and microscopists. Libraries in all universities and research establishments teaching and researching in these areas should have copies of this important work on their shelves.
