Summary:

Gelatine has been the focus of many scientific studies recently published, as it is widely used not only in foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals but also in paints, fertilisers, and photographs. In this book, a discussion of the chemistry and cross-linking of gelatine is explored, in addition to the methods used for determination of gelatine quality.
