Biofilms in the Food Environment (Institute of Food Technologists Series)
By Hans P. Blaschek, Hua H. Wang, Meredith E. Agle
Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell
Number Of Pages: 208
Publication Date: 2007-01-22
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0813820588
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780813820583
Binding: Hardcover
Biofilms in the Food Environment examines biofilms produced by
food-borne microorganisms, the risks associated with biofilms in the
food chain, the beneficial applications of biofilms in the food
environment, and approaches for biofilm removal to improve sanitation
and safety in the food environment.
Specifically, this book provides:
an introduction into the emerging and exciting field of biofilm research in the food environment
a summary of advanced knowledge in medical microbiology and engineering and its applicability to food biofilm research, and
potential
directions for biofilm intervention and industrial beneficial
applications that may have direct impact on food safety and public
health.
Biofilms in the Food Environment is intended to serve as a
comprehensive reference source for the food science community,
including industry scientists, university researchers, and regulatory
agencies. Not only are general concepts regarding biofilms in the food
environment covered, but also included are in-depth reviews on biofilm
structures, the correlation between strain virulence and
biofilm-forming abilities, cutting-edge technologies to investigate
microbial compositions in ecosystems and cell-to-cell interactions, and
updated findings on molecular attributes and mechanisms involved in
biofilm development that might lead to targeted approaches for biofilm
prevention and removal. The topics covered and approaches discussed are
truly interdisciplinary in nature.
