In recent years, the formation and impacts of biofilms on dairy
manufacturing have been studied extensively, from the effects of
microbial enzymes produced during transportation of raw milk to the
mechanisms of biofilm formation by thermophilic spore-forming
bacteria. The dairy industry now has a better understanding of
biofilms and of approaches that may be adopted to reduce the
impacts that biofilms have on manufacturing efficiencies and the
quality of dairy products. Biofilms in the Dairy Industry provides
a comprehensive overview of biofilm-related issues facing the dairy
sector. The book is a cornerstone for a better understanding of the
current science and of ways to reduce the occurrence of biofilms
associated with dairy manufacturing. The introductory section
covers the definition and basic concepts of biofilm formation and
development, and provides an overview of problems caused by the
occurrence of biofilms along the dairy manufacturing chain. The
second section of the book focuses on specific biofilm-related
issues, including the quality of raw milk influenced by biofilms,
biofilm formation by thermoduric streptococci and thermophilic
spore-forming bacteria in dairy manufacturing plants, the presence
of pathogens in biofilms, and biofilms associated with dairy waste
effluent. The final section of the book looks at the application of
modelling approaches to control biofilms. Potential solutions for
reducing contamination throughout the dairy manufacturing chain are
also presented. Essential to professionals in the global dairy
sector, Biofilms in the Dairy Industry will be of great interest to
anyone in the food and beverage, academic and government sectors.
This text is specifically targeted at dairy professionals who aim
to improve the quality and consistency of dairy products and
improve the efficiency of dairy product manufacture through
optimizing the use of dairy manufacturing plant and reducing
operating costs.
