Modern Food Microbiology March 13, 2007 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book I used when I did my masters of Food Science. This book has nominated as a reference book for the course work of Food Microbiology.
To have the reference copy I ordered this book for my personnel library.
Good overview and coverage July 9, 1999 8 out of 11 found this review helpful
This book has a relatively good coverage of most microbiological issues, but I would have liked to seen more coverage on yeasts and also food and industrial applications. Thorough coverage on food borne illnesses.
