This volume presents the most up-to-date and detailed information available on protein-based biopolymer films and coatings. It provides a comprehensive overview of the design, technology, properties, functionality, and applications of biopolymer films and coatings (edible and inedible) from plant and animal proteins. Both widely commercialized and envisioned applications of protein films are discussed, including hard and soft gelatin capsules, microcapsules, collagen casings, and meat and produce coatings. Expert contributors provide thorough reviews of related interdisciplinary research and extensive lists of references.About the Editor:Aristippos Gennadios, Ph.D. is Senior Manager, Materials Science and Clinical Supplies, Product Development: US and Canada, Banner Pharmacaps Inc. (a Sobel NV Company) in High Point, North Carolina. He received his B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the National Technical University in Athens, Greece, his M.S. in Agricultural Engineering from Clemson University, and his Ph.D. in Agricultural and Biological Systems Engineering from the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. Dr. Gennadios is also Adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Systems Engineering at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. He has authored or co-authored over 40 refereed publications and has been granted 2 U.S. patents. Booknews Contributions from international researchers and practitioners discuss the design, technology, properties, and functionality of biopolymer films and coatings made from plant and animal proteins. Some of the applications discussed include proteins as microencapsulating agents in pharmaceutical applications; hard and soft gelatin capsules; edible films and coatings carrying antimicrobial agents; and military food packaging. Coverage extends to kosher and halal issues and the uses of soy protein in biodegradable plastics. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
