Short Description

This book covers the information required for improving the quality of food protein products. It explores the relationships between the structures, functions, and the chemical and physical properties of different food proteins, emphasizing their most useful applications as well as protein behavior during processing. The author draws on nine commodities and the food processing application of proteins in each commodity area to present real-world examples of how food protein chemistry works.

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 proteins
