Summary

Summary

This state-of-the-art text provides new information in the field of food microbiology, offering current, definitive, factual material written by experts on each subject. Emphasizing the molecular and mechanistic aspects of food microbiology, this advanced text fulfills the need of research microbiologists, graduate students and instructors of food microbiology courses for an in-depth treatment of food microbiology. The text is organized into nine major sections that address each of the main areas of the field, including: microbial food spoilage; foodborne pathogenic bacteria; mycotoxigenic moulds; viruses; foodborne and waterborne parasites; preservatives and preservation methods; food fermentations; and advanced techniques in food microbiology.
