The acceptability of certain food products may be limited by the enzymatic under-equipment of certain individuals (lactase) or by the presence of anti-nutritional factors (anti-proteases), or even by the allergenicity of certain constituents (milk proteins, egg proteins, etc.). Enzymatic treatment can improve the biological value of these products.

Lactose hydrolysis offers technological and economic...
