Food Sanitation And Safety Flashcards
Field of study which deals with conditions and practices in food production, handling, oprep, and processing with an objective to PREVENT CONTAMINATION
Assurance that food will not bring harm
Food safety
A result of food contamination which caused ingestion OF VIABLE AND INFECTIVE MICROORGANISMS
Infection
A result of food contamination which causes ingestion if pre formed toxins without ingestion of viable microorganisms
Intoxication
A category of contamination wherein it can either be macro or microbiological
Biological contamination
A type of biological contamination caused by helmiths and other parasites, poisonous plants and animals
Macrobiological contamination
A type of biological contamination caused by bacteria, yeast, molds and their toxins
Microbiological contamination
A category of contamination caused by fertilisers, chemicals, insecticides, toxic metal poisoning such as Copper, cobalt, lead, mercury
Chemical contamination
A category of contamination wherein fragments of insects, parts of animal like hair, metal shavings from cans
Physical contamination
A category of contamination from radioactive materials like IODINE 131, CESIUM 137, BARIUM 170, AND STRONIUM 90
Radiological contamintation
Common sources of food contaminants
FOOD HANDLER INSECTS / RODENTS AIR, DUST, SOIL WATER, SEWAGE UTENSILS . EQUIPMENT
PATHOGENIC MICROORGANISMS
Coliforms Fecal streptococcus/ enterococcus Salmonella Staphylococcus aureus Clostridium Botulinum Clostridium perfringens Bacillus aureus Vibrio parahemolyticus
Food born microbiological hazards
Shigella sp Vibrio cholera’ Streptococcus Brucella abortus Myobacterium tuberculosis Yersinia
A type of chemical poisoning caused by ingestion of SELENIUM found in MILK, EGGS, MEAT, GRAINS, AND VEGS
Selenium (se) poisoning
A type of chem poisoning from ingestion of food prepared and processed using GALVANIZED WARE
Zinc (zn) poisoning
Type of chem poisoning caused by ingestion of food that has come in contact with COPPER SURFACES such as ACID FOOD, OR CARBONATED LIQUID
Cooper (cu) poisoning
Type of chem poisoning due to silver polish whith CYANIDE contaminating utensils
Cyanide poisoning
Type of chem poisoning caused by leached out Sb / Antimony form ENAMEL WARE used in cooking acid foods
Sb / antimony poisoning
Type of chem poisoning from leached out Hg from food utensils
Seafood contaminated with industrial wastes can also contain high level of Hg
Hg / mercury poisoning
Type of chem poisoning from contaminations of food with PESTICIDES
Arsenic / as poisoning
