Synopsis

This volume covers the basics of protein chemistry and protein characterization as well as examining the properties of different foods. This work applies modern protein chemistry to provide an understanding of protein behaviour during food processing. This coverage of the major aspects of protein chemistry in the food industry requires no prior expertise in protein chemistry.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Food Proteins Properties and Characterization Edited by Shuryo Nakai H. Wayne Modler Food Proteins covers the basic theory and fundamental concepts necessary for an understanding of modern food protein chemistry. The authors discuss the chemical and physical properties of food proteins, the variety of sources from which the nutrition of food proteins is derived, analytical methods for quantitating and characterizing food proteins, and methods for separating and purifying food proteins. They also explain the modification of food proteins using chemical and biological techniques, the functional properties required for preparing high quality food products, and the behavior of proteins during processing. This book is intended as a reference for food scientists and technicians, as well as a text for graduate students in food science and food–related areas.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Protein chemistry has entered a revolutionary era due to the introduction of genetic engineering for modifying protein structure, as well as the application of advanced computer technology to the study of proteins. By supplementing the traditional ways of studying protein behavior with these newer methods, food processors will be able to resolve difficult problems without using the costly trial–and–error–method so common in the past. This book gives the reader a good foundation in the basics of modern protein chemistry and to show how applications of these concepts to food proteins helps explain their roles in food processing.
