Description
This course on Food Technology is designed to equip students/ Food businessmen with the knowledge and skills needed to ensure food safety, quality, and innovation in the food industry. Central to this field are various microbiological, chemical, and adulteration tests that play a crucial role in maintaining food standards.Microbiological tests focus on identifying and quantifying microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeasts, and molds, in food products. These tests are vital for detecting pathogens like Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria, which can cause foodborne illnesses. Techniques such as culture methods, PCR, and rapid microbial detection systems are widely used in this aspect.Chemical testing ensures the nutritional quality and safety of food. It involves analyzing components like proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals, as well as detecting harmful substances such as pesticides, heavy metals, and toxins. Advanced techniques like chromatography and spectrophotometry are employed for precise analysis.Adulteration tests aim to identify impurities or harmful substances added to food to increase quantity or alter its appearance. Common tests include those for detecting synthetic colors, added starch, and contaminants like urea or lead.This comprehensive focus on microbiology, chemistry, and adulteration ensures the development of safe and high-quality food products, preparing students for diverse roles in the food sector.
