Microorganisms are an integral part of the fermentation process in
food products and help to improve sensory and textural properties
of the products. As such, it is vital to explore the current uses
of microorganisms in the dairy industry. Microbial Cultures and
Enzymes in Dairy Technology is a critical scholarly resource that
explores multidisciplinary uses of cultures and enzymes in the
production of dairy products. Featuring coverage on a wide range of
topics such as dairy probiotics, biopreservatives, and
fermentation, this book is geared toward academicians, researchers,
and professionals in the dairy industry seeking current research on
the major role of microorganisms in the production of many dairy
products.
Globalisation of the world economy portends a wide range of
benefits to citizens of all countries. However, this
ground-breaking book finds that the impacts of trade liberalisation
and globalisation appear to have a negative impact on agricultural
sustainability in developing countries.This book explores the
proposition that globalisation and trade liberalisation is an
international win-win game and finds that there is substantial
evidence to suggest that there could be a range of agricultural
problems and negative impacts on rural communities and the
environment in poorer countries. The authors use cutting-edge
research from Brazil, Bolivia, Burkino Faso, Indonesia, The
Philippines and Thailand to suggest that special attention needs to
be paid to local issues in poor countries in the face of
globalisation. Sustainable Agriculture and Environment will prove
invaluable to scholars and policymakers in the areas of
environmental and ecological economics.
Fungi Bio-prospects in Sustainable Agriculture: Fungal metabolites
and Nano-technology is a three-volume series that has been designed
to explore the huge potential of the many diverse applications of
fungi to human life. The series unveils the latest developments and
scientific advances in the study of the biodiversity of fungi,
extremophilic fungi, and fungal secondary metabolites and enzymes,
while also presenting cutting-edge molecular tools used to study
fungi. Readers will learn all about the recent progress and future
potential applications of fungi in agriculture, environmental
remediation, industry, food safety, medicine, and nanotechnology.
Volume 3 provides a comprehensive account of fungal metabolites,
including bioactive and host origin compounds, along with other
biomolecules, and mycotoxins. This book includes the applications,
limitations, and prospects of working with fungal secondary
metabolites. The authors explore fungi in the myco-mediated
synthesis of nanoparticles along with their biotechnological,
industrial, and agricultural uses. This book also discusses
advancements in medical mycology for the diagnosis and treatment of
fungal infections. Furthermore, this book provides up-to-date and
in-depth knowledge about the adoption of advanced CRISPR-Cas9
technology in fungi for gene editing
