Sommario/riassunto

This volume is the continuation of a successful bookseries devoted to an increasingly vital subject: the utilization of carbohydrates as chemical raw materials. Sixteen contributions present an overview of current research thereby covering several new topics which were not dealt with in the preceeding volumes:- production and use of inulin- lactose: its manufacture and physico-chemical properties- lactic acid production and utilization- bulking agents: polydextrose- alkyl polyglucoside, a carbohydrate-based surfactantAs more than sixty percent of the authors com
