Midterm 2 short q Flashcards
The typical spoilage for juices/liquids are:
Yeasts
For which food specified the annual number of sample based on the animals slaughtered in the previous year?
Cattle, Swine, Sheep and Goats
What is not true for gas chromatography?
It is suitable for separating maximum 50-70 different components
It cannot be connected with a structure elucidation method
What considerations should be taken into account by the person taking the sample?
What is the size and amount of material to be sampled
What is the level of inhomogeneity of the material to be sampled
What is the target component or components
What is true for gas chromatography?
A gas is used as its mobile phase
Heat sensitive materials can also be analysed by it
What is produced during homofermentation?
Lactic acid
From which one do you not take 500 gram sample?
Fresh fruit
Which substances belongs to category A?
Chloramphenicol, anabolic agents
What is true for the spoilage flora?
Aerotolerant anaerob
Which heat treatment is not used to produce consumer milk?
Thermization
What is not produced during heterofermentation?
Malic acid
For which heat treatment are the phosphatase and peroxidase tests both positive?
Thermization
From which one do you take 500 gram sample?
Meat
On which pH is a certain acid most/less active?
Lowest/highest number
Which if these cannot be contaminated during the first phase of food production?
Milk poducts/sausage
What is the principle of testing for Peroxidase test (Storch test)?
Control of heat treatment, peroxidase decomposes at 80oC (e.g. flash pasteurization)
What is the Z-value?
Change in temperature, which results in a tenfold change in the Decimal reduction time (D)
What is the D?
The time for the (surviving) population to be reduced by 1 magnitude at a specified, constant temperature. Decimal reduction time (e.g. 107 – 106 = 1D)
Which milk product is made using thermofilic and mesophilic bacterias?
Yoghurt (acidified milk products fermented by thermophilic bacteria, origin from the Balkans)
Which test is suitable to examine the quality/originity of the milk?
Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy, Milko-Scan. Eliminate need for traditional slow tests
For which heat treatment is phosphatase test negative and peroxidase test positive?
Pasteurization below 80oC
Which is made with mesophilic bacteria?
Curd, Kefir, Koumiss, Yoghurt
Which is made of mesophilic bacteria and yeasts?
Kefir, Koumiss
What do we detect with alcohol test?
When the milk is sour (increased SH), the colloidal system changes ➡ proteins precipitate by the effect of 68% alcohol
How do we detect milk falsification?
If foreign water is meant ➡ by determination of freezing point
Which test is based on microbiological inhibition?
Delvo test, Four-cup-plate, KIS test, Brilliant Black Reduction test
Which test is based on receptor reactions?
ROSA test, Snap test
What drug is in group A?
- Chloramphenicol (also anabolic substances e.g hormones, stilbene, nitrofuran, tyreostatics, zeranol, beta agonists)
