Produktbeschreibung
Lactose-Derived Prebiotics: A Process Perspective is the first scientific reference to provide a comprehensive technological overview of the processes to derive oligosaccharides from dairy for use in functional foods. With their combined 90+ years in industry and research, the authors present the functional properties of prebiotics derived from lactose and the production technology required to make them. The book focuses on process engineering and includes an overview of green chemistry processes involving enzyme biocatalysis, providing detailed coverage of the use of whey lactose as raw material for producing oligosaccharides. The book's focus on processes and products allows the reader to understand the constraints and impacts of technology on lactose-derived prebiotics.
Autorenporträt

Dr. Illanes' fields of expertise are enzyme biocatalysis, enzyme immobilization and bioreactor design. He is author of over 150 publications in ISI WoS journals, several book chapters and editor of three books in enzyme biocatalysis for Wiley, Springer and Academic Press-Elsevier.

Dr. Cecilia Guerrero is Associate Professor at the School of Biochemical Engineering, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, Chile. She has published over 45 publications in ISI WOS journals, two book

chapters, two patents and over 60 presentations of congress. Dr. Guerrero's fields of expertise are the enzymatic synthesis of carbohydrates and rare-sugar with prebiotics effect by transgalactosylation and isomerization reaction with commercial and recombinant

enzyme.

Dr. Carlos Vera is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Chemistry and Biology, Universidad de Santiago de Chile. He has published over 40 research articles on the enzymatic production of lactose derived prebiotics, glycosides by transglycosylation and, more recently, the enzymatic production of rare sugars with isomerases. He has also published two books, a book chapter and two patents.
