- J. Chick, Z. Ustunol
- Chemistry
- 20 July 2006
Tensile strength (TS), percent elongation (%E), oxygen permeability (OP), and water vapor permeability (WVP) of lactic acid and rennet precipitated casein-based edible films were studied to determine…
Invited review: Advances in starter cultures and cultured foods.
