Beginning with an introduction to relevant genetic techniques, chapters cover all major groups of LAB, including the Bifidobacteria; plasmid biology, gene transfer, phage, and sugar metabolism; gene expression of various LAB; applications for genetically engineered LAB, including the emerging field of medical applications; and the legal and consumer issues that arise from such applications. This resource will set the benchmark for the state of knowledge of LAB genetics and should be of value to food scientists and other researchers working with LAB in its present and future capacities....

Building care encompasses everything from maintenance of a building to energy conservation and range of approaches, including the effects on design.
A range of approaches to looking after buildings and their users is covered in this book. The rationale and conditions that support them (e.g. PPM - preventative planned maintenance; JIT - just in time) are explained, together with the commercial and environmental imperatives driving new approaches to building care.

The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are a group of related micro-organisms that are enormously important in the food and beverage industries, preventing food spoilage and extending shelf life. This is the first reference that provides a much-needed and comprehensive account of the current knowledge of LAB, detailing the taxonomy, biochemistry, physiology, and molecular biology of these scientifically and commercially important micro-organisms. With chapter coverage of every recognized genus and species, this book will enable researchers to fully exploit the industrial, nutritional, and medical...

Winter Walk: A Collection of Poems, is the debut book of poetry from Canadian poet Brian Wood. Served up in the style of classical poems, this collection of verse channels all the old poets like Frost, Whitman, and Hopkins, and does so with a reverence and respect for the tradition of poetry that we see today being widely appreciated as contemporary voices of poets all over. Brian mixes and mingles with the best of them, and his collection of verse certainly aspires to remind us about where poetry came from and remind us about where it can go, which is to say an expedition that helps us all...

Once the world's most famous chef, Gavin Cruikshank's been in a self-imposed exile for years.

It's a stain on a once-noble profession, and Chef Gavin is ready to go to war to stop it. Two things stand in his way: his arch rival Roman Algiers, and his adult daughter Angie, who probably just wants her dad back and acting normal.
