BeMiller (food science, Purdue U.) covers the full range of carbohydrates available as food and related issues, including carbohydrate reactions, monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, polysaccharides (occurrence, structures, chemistry and properties) starches and their products, cellulose and cellulosics, gums (guar, locust bean and tara), gum Arabic and other exudate gums, xanthan, carrageenans, algins and alginates, pectins, carbohydrates and noncarbonhydrate sweeteners, and gellans, curdlan, dextrans and levans. Especially helpful is his chapter on carbohydrate nutrition, dietary fiber, bulking agents and fat mimetics. This edition expands on current studies and theories, and includes new information on such subjects as polyols, prebiotics and the Maillard browning reaction. Although designed as a textbook, this doubles as a very good professional reference.
