Produktbeschreibung

The chemistry and physico-chemical properties of milk proteins is perhaps the largest and most rapidly evolving major area in dairy chemistry. Advanced Dairy Chemistry-1A; Proteins: Basic Aspects covers the fundamental chemistry of dairy proteins, the most commercially valuable constituents of milk. This fourth edition includes all chapters in the third edition on basic aspects of dairy proteins which have been revised and expanded. The chapters on the chemistry of the caseins (Chapter 4), genetic polymorphism (Chapter 15) and nutritional aspects of milk proteins (Chapter 16) have been revised by new authors and new chapters have been included on the evolution of the mammary gland (Chapter 1) and on minor proteins and growth factors in milk (Chapter 11).

This authoritative work describes current knowledge on the basic chemistry and physico-chemical aspects of milk proteins and will be very valuable to dairy scientists, chemists, and others working in dairy research or in the dairy industry.

Autorenporträt

Paul L.H. McSweeney MA, PhD, DSc is Professor of Food Chemistry in the School of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University College, Cork, Ireland.  The overall theme of his research is dairy biochemistry with particular reference to cheese.  He is co-author or co-editor of 10 books on dairy chemistry and cheese science, in addition to numerous research papers and reviews.  He was awarded the Marschall Danisco International Dairy Science Award of the American Dairy Science Association in 2004 and in 2009 a higher doctorate (DSc) on published work by the National University of Ireland. Patrick F. Fox BSc, PhD, DSc, CChem, FRSC, FICI was Professor and Head of the Department of Food Chemistry at University College, Cork, Ireland, from 1969 to 1997; he retired in December 1997 and is now Emeritus Professor of Food Chemistry. Prof. Fox received PhD degree in Food Chemistry from Cornell University followed by postdoctoral periods in the United States. Prof. Fox's research has focused on the biochemistry of cheese, the heat stability of milk, physicochemical properties of milk proteins, and food enzymology. He has authored or coauthored about 520 research and review papers, and authored or edited 25 text books on Dairy Chemistry. He was one of the founding editors of the International Dairy Journal. In recognition of his work, Prof. Fox has received the Research & Innovation Award of the (Irish) National Board for Science and Technology (1983), the Miles-Marschall Award of the American Dairy Science Association (1987), Medal of Honour, University of Helsinki (1991), the DSc degree of the National University of Ireland (1993), the Senior Medal for Agricultural & Food Chemistry of the Royal Society for Chemistry (2000), the ISI Highly Cited Award in Agricultural Science (2002), the International Dairy Federation Award (2002), Gold Medal of the UK Society of Dairy Technology (2007), and an autobiography published in AnnualReview of Food Science & Technology (2011). Prof. Fox has been invited to lecture in various countries around the world.
