Food Proteins

Food Proteins offers information required for improving the quality of food protein products.
* The text will help in gaining new ideas for conducting useful research on food proteins and enzymes.
* Focuses on both the physical and chemical properties of food proteins and the application of food proteins in food processing
* Includes the fundamental concept required for understanding the modern food protein chemistry
* Explores the relationships between the structures, functions, and properties of different food proteinsDieses Buch konzentriert sich sowohl auf die chemischen und physikalischen Eigenschaften von Nahrungsmittelproteinen als auch auf deren Anwendung in der Lebensmitteltechnologie. Behandelt werden Aspekte der Verarbeitung von Milch, Fleisch, Geflügel, Eiern, Sojabohnen und Getreide sowie der Brotherstellung. Hier finden Sie viele neue Ideen für sinnvolle Forschungsarbeiten auf dem Gebiet der Proteine und Enzyme! (10/99) Milk Processing (H. Modler).

H. WAYNE MODLER, PhD, formerly of Agriculture Canada, is now a consultant and dairy specialist based in Kemptville, Ontario, Canada. State-of-the-art knowledge on a wide variety of protein processing applications.

Food Proteins presents a thorough review of each important animal and plant protein used in food processing, including physicochemical properties important to the food industry. The authors explore recent trends in food manufacturing that will revolutionize food production in the years to come.

Emphasizing protein behavior during processing, the book examines the relationships between structure, function, and properties of different food proteins. The focus is on food processing applications of proteins from eight different commodity areas: milk, meat, poultry, eggs, breads, cereal, soybeans, and confectionery. This book provides:
* Fundamental concepts required for understanding modern food protein chemistry
* Basic concepts underlying the structure/function relationship of food proteins
* Predictions of functionalities required for achieving the best quality in proteinaceous foods
With the genetic evolution of food proteins playing an increasingly important role in food product development, Food Proteins: Processing Applications is an indispensable resource for food chemists, scientists, and technologists as well as protein chemists, nutrition researchers, and government researchers and inspectors.
