Food fermentation professionals and researchers also have lacked a single book that covers the latest advances in biotechnology, bioprocessing, and microbial genetics, physiology, and taxonomy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eMicrobiology and Technology of Fermented Foods\u003c\/i\u003e, Robert Hutkins has written the first text on food fermentation microbiology in a generation. This authoritative volume also serves as a comprehensive and contemporary reference book. A brief history and evolution of microbiology and fermented foods, an overview of microorganisms involved in food fermentations, and their physiological and metabolic properties provide a foundation for the reader. How microorganisms are used to produce fermented foods and the development of a modern starter culture industry are also described. Successive chapters are devoted to the major fermented foods produced around the world with coverage including microbiological and technological features for manufacture of these foods:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCultured Dairy Products\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCheese\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMeat Fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFermented Vegetables\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBread Fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBeer Fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWine Fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eVinegar Fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFermentation of Foods in the Orient\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eExamples of industrial processes, key historical events, new discoveries in microbiology, anecdotal materials, case studies, and other key information are highlighted throughout the book.
