Topical Collection Information
Dear Colleagues,
Milk and dairy products have long been part of the human diet. Even though the conversion of milk into dairy products involves ancient knowledge and tradition, the dairy industry is extremely dynamic and is constantly innovating. This Collection entitled “Milk and Dairy Products: Chemistry, Structure, Processing and Properties” aims to comprehensively explore the latest advances in the area of dairy science and technology. Potential topics to be published in this Special Issue include but are not limited to the following: milk- and dairy-product-processing technologies and their effect on product properties; bioactive properties of dairy products; development of dairy products for personalized nutrition; novel approaches to improve the quality and/or extend the shelf-life of dairy products; novel technologies focused on the use of co-products; sustainable approaches to the dairy industry; emerging technologies and their effects on dairy products’ characteristics; dairy ingredients’ application and functionality. We welcome both original research and review papers.
Prof. Dr. Débora Parra Baptista
