Around the entire world, production of Mozzarella cheese has been gaining market share with expecting to grow more due in part to increasing market for ready to eat food stuffs especially Pizza. Regarding that consumers have been showing more concern with the nutritional aspects of the foods they eat than ever before. This book represents a study about the conventional mozzarella cheese and converting it to functional foods to increase its nutritional value and improving its functional properties when it use as shredded cheese. Olive oil as well-known as a natural source of antioxidants and has many other health benefits was used to substitute the milk fat in the manufacturing of Mozzarella cheese. The chemical composition and the major functional and rheological properties such as meltability, stretchability and free oil formation, were then examined and compared with traditionally manufactured control cheese. Furthermore, Sensory evaluation testing established the consumer acceptability of the new product.

Structure of Dairy Products SOCIETY OF DAIRY TECHNOLOGY SERIES Edited by A. Y. Tamime The Society of Dairy Technology (SDT) has joined with Blackwell Publishing to produce a series of technical dairy-related handbooks providing an invaluable resource for all those involved in the dairy industry; from practitioners to technologists working in both traditional and modern large-scale dairy operations. The previous 30 years have witnessed great interest in the microstructure of dairy products, which has a vital bearing on, e.g. texture, sensory qualities, shelf life and packaging requirements of dairy foods. During the same period, new techniques have been developed to visualise clearly the properties of these products. Hence, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) have been used as complimentary methods in quality appraisal of dairy products, and are used for product development and in trouble shooting wherever faults arise during manufacturing. Structure of Dairy Products, an excellent new addition to the increasingly well-known and respected SDT series, offers the reader: • information of importance in product development and quality control • internationally known contributing authors and book editor • thorough coverage of all major aspects of the subject • core, commercially useful knowledge for the dairy industry Edited by Adnan Tamime, with contributions from international authors, this book is an essential purchase for dairy scientists and technologists, food scientists and technologists, food chemists, physicists, rheologists and microscopists. Libraries in all universities and research establishments teaching and researching in these areas should have copies of this important work on their shelves.

Cheese Production, Consumption and Health Benefits provides current research in several topics related to the production, physicochemical, microbiological and sensorial properties of cheese, as well as food safety aspects related to this product. The book starts presenting research related to alternative coagulants from various origins in cheese manufacture, motivated by the increase in cheese demand and consumption. The importance of non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) in cheese production is highlighted, especially concerning their potential and applications. Studies using specific adjunct cultures were reviewed, and new contributions are presented in order to evaluate their effect on cheese physicochemical and sensory characteristics. Cheese nutritional aspects, which follow the new consumers trends, are explored. The use of fibres in cheese is discussed and the impact of the production of light cheeses using fat replacers on texture and sensorial properties of cheeses is presented. Ripening is one of the most important stages during cheese manufacture. The ripening conditions (temperature, humidity, time, etc.) are responsible for the development of many flavours and the formation of free fatty acids (FFA) in cheese. In this book, two studies related to the lipolysis level, FFA composition and the volatile acids content of some traditional cheeses from the European Union Balkan countries (and from hard yak cheese) are presented. Instrumental and sensorial methods are used to evaluate the rheological and textural characteristics of curds, and to identify the optimal texturising conditions of cheese ripening. Some correlations between textural characteristics of cheese during the acidification process and the physicochemical composition are established. Traditional cheeses from Algeria (Djben, Klila, Michouna, Bouhezza, Takammart and Madghissa), Brazil (Minas Padrão cheese) and from Southeastern Europe (Cascaval cheese) are discussed with respect to their production techniques and their physicochemical, texture and sensorial characteristics. Finally, safety issues are addressed. A review regarding the emergence of a potential foodborne pathogen (Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis) in cheese is presented. The authors believe that this book will be very useful to food scientists, research institutions, the food industry and to practitioners of the dairy sector.

Our intention in publishing this book was to discuss and interpret all of the major issues in the chemical and environmental science disciplines, because this book covers such a broad range of chemical and environmental science research area. Rather, we have selected the themes and challenges, briefly defined them and demonstrated how they connect, clarified the terminology, and indicated where further research may be accessed. We hope that the result is an excellent introduction to 'chemical and environmental science. It is primarily aimed towards researchers in chemical science and related fields, but it should be accessible to new researchers as well. We have explored into more depth on issues that have received little attention elsewhere. There are several useful sources for topics such as chemical science, environmental science, nanotechnology, ionic liquids, solid waste management, photodegradation, Nanomaterial, adsorption of hazardous metals, and conducting polymers. However we attempted to provide up-to-current knowledge, we are well aware that books may soon go out of date if they seek to provide too much detail, so we concentrated on basic concepts that should not go out of fashion too quickly. Our book differs somewhat from other texts in the chemical and environmental sciences in its concentration. We have focused on ideas and theories because we feel that a solid grasp of them will be more useful in the long run than specifics of present systems, services, and approaches. We've also highlighted the dimension since we feel it's critical to understand where the discipline and its components originated from and why some things are the way they are. This approach is based on the research, with several references provided at the end of each chapter for convenience. Our intention is that the content of this book will be sufficient to provide a fundamental knowledge of the entire field, and that readers will refer to the references for more information and examples of the parts of which they are most interested. The conclusion words and captions, as well as the important references, at the conclusion of each chapter are intended to present the main points in a factual way.
