IFT Press Book Examines Whey Processing
One new IFT Press book is now available from Wiley-Blackwell.

Whey Processing, Functionality and Health Benefits, edited by Charles I. Onwulata and Peter J. Huth (ISBN: 978-0-8138-0903-8. 2008. 416 pp.), reviews the current science related to novel processes, functionality, and health benefit implications. It also examines the biological role of whey protein in muscle metabolism after exercise, muscle and body composition in the elderly, weight management, food intake regulation, and maintenance of bone mass.

Health and wellness, processing, and functionality are areas of continuing research and offer growth opportunity for the food industry. Already, food manufacturers are investigating ways in which they can include whey protein in more food and beverage products. The contributing authors guide product developers in creating new ingredients and innovative products.

Additionally, the book covers whey utilization history and progress in process technology; whey emulsions and stability in acidic environments; current applications in films, coating, and gels; texturized whey in snacks, meat analogs, and candies; and nanoparticles in hydrogels for delivery of bioactive components.

IFT Press books, developed in partnership with Wiley-Blackwell and crafted through rigorous peer review and meticulous research, serve as leading-edge handbooks for industrial application and reference and as essential texts for academic programs.

Topics of future books in the series include sustainability in the food industry, calorimetry and food process design, microbial safety of fresh produce, food ingredients for the global market, hydrocolloids, fats and oils, and dairy ingredients.
