factors affecting growth of microorganisms

(FAT - TOM) Food, acid, time-temp, oxygen, moisture • bacteria wants protein to grow • yeast needs sugar to grow • molds tend to grow on anything

Food Additives Amendment (1958)

- Additive: anything that affects the characteristic of food - GRAS Provision - not subject to premarket review and approval by FDA - Delany Cause: zero tolerance for carcinogens

Refrigeration Requirements

- Controlled low temperature - Deviations (people, lights, hot items) - Proper circulation - Proper humidity - Avoid "sweating"

Stuff

- Food should be "cooled" after harvest or slaughter - Modification or control of atmosphere (CA) - Common changes: water loss, microbial deterioration, chilling injury of fruit, staling of bread, loss of sugar, change in meat color, oxidation of fats, loss of flavor

Freeze Drying

- Freeze the food and apply a vacuum. Ice converted to water vapor...very good quality. Foam drying (foaming increases surface area)

CDC

- Investigates foodborne disease outbreaks (local, state, federal) - Surveillance systems

Refrigeration....

- Limits microbial growth - Retards metabolic, enzymatic activity - Retards ripening, softening - Retards water loss and wilting - Prevents undesirable growth

EPA

- Limits on pesticides - Safe Water (1974) - Food Quality (1996)

NMFS

- Seafood food safety / meet FDA requirements

Quality changes during freezing

- Small amount of unfrozen water - Excess solutes may precipitate - Proteins may denature - pH may decrease - Gases may concentrate - Damage from ice crystals....punctures cell membranes (freezer burn) - Fast freezing is more desirable - -18 degrees celsius is standard - Partial thawing and refreezing can be beneficial

Freezing

- Water freezes at 0 degrees celsius when the water is pure - Last portion of water is very hard to freeze - Unfrozen water is a problem

Still air freezing

-23 to -30 celsius .... slow

Air blast

-30 to -45 with high air velocity. Freezer burn is a problem

Freezing

-32 degrees

Heat Resistance of Microorganisms

-Do not know how many and what types of organisms are in the food initiallyAssume a highly heat-resistant spore-former (C. botulinum) is present in large numbers (i.e. 1012).

Color Additives Amendment (1960)

-Dyes and pigments used in foods, drugs, cosmetics and certain medical devices-Color additives for food use •Certifiable: 9 total with last 2 that have very specific use (FD&C Blue No.1, FD&C Blue No.2, FD&C Green No.3, FD&C Red No.3, FD&C Red No.40, FD&C Yellow No.5, FD&C Yellow No.6, FD&C Orange B, FD&C Citrus Red No.2)•Exempt from certification: Pigments from natural sources or their man-made counterparts

Food Laws

-Food adulteration for economic reasons reported as early as the 4thcentury, BC-Trade guilds (13thcentury) to advance food standards-Ensuring safe and wholesome products makes the market stronger•More recently: inform consumers about the nutritional content

Nutritional Labeling and Education Act (1990)

-Mandated nutritional labeling-Label declarations of collective terms, sulfites, sweeteners, colors, spices, allergenic substances, net contents, metric labeling-Light, fat free, low fat, reduced fat, etc.-Nutrient-health claims

Net quantity of contents

-Metric and U.S. Customary System-Not include the weight of the container, or wrappers and packing materials-Water or other liquid added to food in a container is usually included-Drained weight if packing medium is normally discarded

Food Safety Modernization Act (2011)

-Prevention: Written preventive controls plan, ample record keeping and monitoring-Inspections, compliance and response -Import safety-Enhanced partnership with other agencies

Food Laws started with the 1906 Pure Food and Drug Act

-Signed simultaneously with the Meat Inspection Act-Modern era of food regulation in the U.S.-Dr. Harvey Washington Wiley, Chief Chemist of the Bureau of Chemistry-Upton Sinclair's book "The Jungle"

Heating Food in Containers

•Canned foods •Saturated steam, hot water, steam and air•Heat transfer-From the heating medium to packaging-Through packaging-From the inner surface to cold point

staphylococcus aureus

• source: humans (boogers) • heat-stable enterotoxin • low body temp

Federal Grades and Standards

Examples of Grades

•Butter and cheese: Based on flavor, body, texture•Poultry: Absence of defects for A •Shell Eggs: AA, A or B•Beef

Inoculated Pack Studies

•Calculations approximate a safe treatment that will spare the nutritional and sensory properties•Results are checked by inoculated pack studies-A population of Putrefactive Anaerobe 3679 added into cans of food-Process in the retort for a little longer and shorter than what the calculations called for-Store cans at a temp suitable for the growth of the spores-Check cans for evidence of growth or spoilage-Shortest heat treatment that consistently produces a commercially sterile product is the effective heat treatment that should be used.

Heat Transfer

•Destroy microorganisms•Destruct enzymes•Change sensory characteristics of food•Temperature gradient is the driver•3 modes•Conduction•Convection•Radiation

Mixing

•Even distribution of ingredients for•Efficient heat transfer•Uniformity in composition and properties•Consistency in eating quality•Mixing time, power and product uniformity are the important variables•Rate of mixing, possible effects of mixing on food components and hygienic design are other considerations

Unit Operations in Food Processing

Mass Transfer

•Migration/diffusion of fluid constituent or mixture component•Concentration gradient is the driver.•Within one phase or across phases•Distillation, crystallization, filtration, evaporation, drying, etc. utilize mass transfer.

Fluid Flow

What is Food Processing?

•Segment of manufacturing industry•Transforms materials of animal, plant, aquatic and other origin into intermediate or finished products.

Size Adjustment

•Size reduction: cutting, slicing, dicing, grinding, etc. •Size enlargement: aggregation, gelation, agglomeration.

Separation

•Solid from solid (e.g. shelling of nuts)•Solid from liquid (e.g. filtration, extraction)•Liquid from liquid (e.g. evaporation, distillation)•Often an intermediate step

Degrees of Heat Preservation

•Sterilization-121°C for 15 min for every particleof food•Commercial sterilization•Pasteurization-Temperatures below Tboilingof water•Blanching-Inactivates enzymes, enhances color, expels air, cleans surface

Heat Resistance of Microorganisms

•Thermal death curves *1. Death rate curve* •D-value: Heating time at constant temperature required for the reduction of number of microorganisms by a factor of 10•D-value is microorganism, temperature and medium (pH, composition) specific *2. Death time curves* •z-value: Temperature rise (units of temp) needed for a 10-fold acceleration of thermal death rate. Depends on the organism and the food (medium).•F-value: Thermal death time-The number of minutes required for the destruction of a specified number of microorganisms at a given constant temperature

Selecting Heat Treatments

•Time-temperature combination for the inactivation of the most heat resistant microorganism•Heat penetration characteristics of the product
