A. THE GOOD
B. THE BAD
C. AND THE UGLY
• FOOD SPOILAGE – PROCESS THAT MAKES FOOD INEDIBLE
• FOOD FERMENTATION – PROCESS THAT CHANGES THE FOOD’S SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS AND INCREASES THE SHELF–LIFE OF THE ORIGINAL FOOD
• FOOD BORNE ILLNESS – INFECTIONS OR POISONING DUE TO THESE MICROORGANISMS
• MICROORGANISMS – SMALL ORGANISMS INVISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE.
MICROBIOLOGICAL GROWTH IS DEPENDENT UPON SEVERAL
FACTORS.
1. pH – MEASURE OF ACIDITY
ACIDIC < 7.0 > ALKALINE
GROWTH BETTER NEAR NEUTRALITY
2. MOISTURE CONTENT – Aw MEASURE OF FREE WATER. MORE DRY <1.00(MAX)
GROW BETTER NEAR 1.00
3. TEMPERATURE – MOST ORGANISMS GROW BEST AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES (600 – 800 F)
4. PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF OXYGEN
WITH O2 – AEROBIC.
WITHOUT O2 – ANAEROBIC.
