The Advanced Dairy Chemistry series was first published in four volumes in the 1980s (under the title Developments in Dairy Chemistry) and revised in three volumes in the 1990s and 2000s. The series is the leading reference on dairy chemistry, providing in-depth coverage of milk proteins, lipids, lactose, water and minor constituents.

Advanced Dairy Chemistry Volume 2: Lipids, Fourth Edition, is unique in the literature on milk lipids, a broad field that encompasses a diverse range of topics, including synthesis of fatty acids and acylglycerols, compounds associated with the milk fat fraction, analytical aspects, behavior of lipids during processing and their effect on product characteristics, product defects arising from lipolysis and oxidation of lipids, as well as nutritional significance of milk lipids. In the years since the publication of the third edition there have been significant developments in milk lipids and these are reflected in changes to this volume. Most topics included in the third edition are retained in the current edition, which has been updated; in some cases, new authors have given their perspective on certain topics. Chapters on nutritional significance of dairy lipids have been considerably revised. This authoritative work summarizes current knowledge on milk lipids and suggests areas for further work. It will be very valuable to dairy scientists, chemists and others working in dairy research or in the dairy industry.

Paul McSweeney is Professor of Food Chemistry and former Head of the School of Food and Nutritional Sciences in University College Cork, Ireland where he is currently the university's Vice-President for Learning and Teaching.  He has an active research profile in dairy chemistry and cheese science and is the co-author or co-editor of 15 books in addition to numerous research papers.  He was awarded the Marschall Danisco International Dairy Science Award of the American Dairy Science Association in 2004 and in 2009 a higher doctorate (DSc) on published work by the National University of Ireland. Patrick F. Fox BSc, PhD, DSc, CChem, FRSC, FICI was Professor and Head of the Department of Food Chemistry at University College, Cork, Ireland, from 1969 to 1997; he retired in December 1997 and is now Emeritus Professor of Food Chemistry. Prof. Fox received PhD degree in Food Chemistry from Cornell University followed by postdoctoral periods in the United States. Prof. Fox's research has focused on the biochemistry of cheese, the heat stability of milk, physicochemical properties of milk proteins, and food enzymology. He has authored or coauthored about 530 research and review papers, and authored or edited 25 text books on Dairy Chemistry. He was one of the founding editors of the International Dairy Journal. In recognition of his work, Prof. Fox has received the Research & Innovation Award of the (Irish) National Board for Science and Technology (1983), the Miles-Marschall Award of the American Dairy Science Association (1987), Medal of Honour, University of Helsinki (1991), the DSc degree of the National University of Ireland (1993), the Senior Medal for Agricultural & Food Chemistry of the Royal Society for Chemistry (2000), the ISI Highly Cited Award in Agricultural Science (2002), the International Dairy Federation Award (2002), Gold Medal of the UK Society of Dairy Technology (2007), and an autobiography published in Annual Review of Food Science & Technology (2011). Prof. Fox has been invited to lecture in various countries around the world.

James O'Mahony is a Lecturer in Food Science in the School of Food and Nutritional Sciences at University College Cork. He is the group leader and principal investigator for the food ingredients research group within the School, which is one of the largest, most active research groups within the School.

Zusammenfassung

The Advanced Dairy Chemistry series was first published in four volumes in the 1980s (under the title Developments in Dairy Chemistry) and revised in three volumes in the 1990s. The series is the leading reference on dairy chemistry, providing in-depth coverage of milk proteins, lipids, lactose, water and minor constituents.

Advanced Dairy Chemistry Volume 2: Lipids, Third Edition, is unique in the literature on milk lipids, a broad field that encompasses a diverse range of topics, including synthesis of fatty acids and acylglycerols, compounds associated with the milk fat fraction, analytical aspects, behavior of lipids during processing and their effect on product characteristics, product defects arising from lipolysis and oxidation of lipids, as well as nutritional significance of milk lipids.

Most topics included in the second edition are retained in the current edition, which has been updated and considerably expanded. New chapters cover the following subjects: Biosynthesis and nutritional significance of conjugated linoleic acid, which has assumed major significance during the past decade; Formation and biological significance of oxysterols; The milk fat globule membrane as a source of nutritionally and technologically significant products; Physical, chemical and enzymatic modification of milk fat; Significance of fat in dairy products: creams, cheese, ice cream, milk powders and infant formulae; Analytical methods: chromatographic, spectroscopic, ultrasound and physical methods.

This authoritative work summarizes current knowledge on milk lipids and suggests areas for further work. It will be very valuable to dairy scientists, chemists and others working in dairy research or in the dairy industry.
