Q

Proteins

A

made of amino acids

proteins must be broken down (hydrolyzed) to be absorbed

emulsifiers (egg yolk proteins, caseins in milk) /foaming agents (egg whites) due to amphiphillic properties

colour through maillard

thickening agent
binding agent
gelling agent (gelatin)

Q

Function of water

A

flavour, vitamins, minerals may be dissolved in water

lubrication for mastication and swallowing

supports growth of BOTH spoilage and pathogenic microbes and desired food fermentation microbes

facil freeze conc (may reduce food quality and facil water removal in foods)

16
Q

Viruses

A

food is a transportation, do NOT multiply in food

remain in food that is under cooked

norovius (GI, stomach flu), hepatitis a (liver disease)

17
Q

molds

A

grow in a mass of mycelium

replicate by spores (conidia, visible at top of the hyphae)

attach to food by rhizoids

aspergillus fumigatus
penicillium glabrum

many are spoilage organisms

18
Q

bacteria

A

primary organisms implicated in foodborne disease

salmonella spp

clostridium botulinum

staphylococcus aureus

probiotics

fermentations

19
Q

Vegetative bacteria produce spores in unfavoruable conditions

A

spores develop in response to unfavoruable growth conditions

vb die while spores are pseudo dormant

spores germinate into vegetative states when favourable conditions return

20
Q

Implications of spores in food products

A

spores have greater resistance to heating, drying, irradiation processing than bacteira

many are thermoduric and acid resistant

higher heat and processing times required for foods that contain spores

21
Q

high and low acid foods

A

high acid:pH less than or equal to 4.6

low acid: pH greater than 4.6

mst pathogens can grow 4.6-9

22
Q

TDZ

A

4-60 celcius (phfs grow in the TDZ)

23
Q

refrigeration temp

A

inhibits the growth of all but psychrophiles

24
Q

categories of bacteria

A

Obligate aerobes are usually associated with surface growth
e.g. Bacillus sp.

◦ Microaerophilic bacteria prefer limited oxygen conditions
e.g. Campylobacter sp.

◦ Indifferent bacteria grow in or without the presence of oxygen.
e.g. Lactobacillus sp.

◦ Facultative anaerobes grow well in oxygen but can survive
anaerobic conditions
e.g. Escherichia sp.

◦ Obligate anaerobes grow where oxygen is absent
e.g. Clostridium sp.

25
Q

Food infections

A

ingesting living, pathogenic bacteria (salmonella sp, listeria sp, shigella sp, campylobacter jejuni)

26
Q

Food intoxications

A

illness that results from ingesting a microbial preformed toxin

clostridium botulinum, staphylococcus aureus

27
Q

toxin-mediated infection

A

illness that results from the ingestion of living infection causing bacteria that also produce a toxin in the intestine

c. perfringens, e. coli 0157:H7

28
Q

top pathogens in canada

A

norovirus

listeria monocytogenes (listeria bacteria resist heat, salt, nitrite, low T and acidity)

salmonella sp (causes salmonellosis, spread by consuming mainly contaminated animal products)

escherichia coli O157:H7, lives naturally in intestines of animals

campylobacter jejuni: associated with reactive arthritis, IBS

staphylococcus aureus: destroyed by cooking, toxin is not

29
Q

GMP SOP

A

good manufacturing practices for GENERAL basic operational and environmental conditions required to produce safe foods

30
Q

HACCP

A

preventative approach of food industry to enhance food safety (preventative approach)

31
Q

Food recalls are implemented by

A

CFIA

32
Q

Process by which fermented foods are created

A

nutrients in food

metabolized by fermenting microorganisms

fermentation products accumulate (lactic acid, CO2, ethanol)

interaction of fermentation products with food components

change in food character

33
Q

probiotics, prebiotics

A

live bacteria consumed from foods that benefit health (delivered as live organisms or spores)

nondigestible CHO that act as food for probiotics
