Research on lactic acid bacteria has advanced greatly in recent years and is assuming importance in many diverse areas including biotechnology, nutrition, health, and food safety. This book represents a broad review of current lactic acid bacteria research with contributions from a number of well-known scientists. The work encompasses a wide range of interests including both traditional and developing fields. An essential reference text for established researchers and a valuable introduction for the newcomer to the field. Authors include: Oscar P. Kuipers, Harry S. Rollema, Marke M. Beerthuyzen, Jan Roelof van der Meer, Willem M. de Vos, Roland J. Siezen, Livia Alm, E. Ryd-Kjellen, G. Setterberg, L.
