A volume in the series on Foundations and Frontiers of Enzymology,
Enzymes Beyond Traditional Applications in Dairy Science and Technology presents the applications of enzymes in dairy science and technology. Broken into four sections, this book provides a brief account of traditional applications of indigenous milk enzymes, the actions of exogenous enzymes on milk proteins for generating bioactive peptides and lactose for value addition, and methods and approaches for ensuring milk quality or cleaning milk plants.
This book is an excellent resource for postgraduate students, academics, food scientists, and dairy professionals engaged in milk processing.
