Food and Industrial Microbiology

Comments on food science and technology from a university department of microbiology.

Food science and technology have acquired unforeseen implications in different fields, among which the following stand out: (1) industries related to agriculture, animal husbandry, fisheries, and transport; (2) hygiene, in order to establish scientifically the appropriate types of food processing along with a more rational approach to dietetics; and (3) legislative, in order to enact laws prote...

Molecular evolution in yeast of biotechnological interest.

The importance of yeast in the food and beverage industries was only realized about 1860, when the role of these organisms in food manufacture became evident. Since they grow on a wide range of substrates and can tolerate extreme physicochemical conditions, yeasts, especially the genera Saccharomyces and Kluyveromyces, have been applied to many industrial processes, Industrial strains of these ...
