Food and Dairy Microbiology presents a through and accessible account of various microbes associated directly or indirectly with the food and dairy products. Food Microbiology explores the fundamental elements affecting the presence, activity, and control of microorganisms in food. The subject also includes the key concepts required to meet the minimum standards for degrees in food science with a wealth of practical information about the most essential factors and principles that affect microorganisms in food. A dairy is a building used for the harvesting of animal milk mostly from cows or goats but also from buffalo sheep horses or camels for human consumption. A dairy is typically located on a dedicated dairy farm or section of a multi purpose farm that is concerned with the harvesting of milk.
