Download or read book The Manufacture of Vacuum and Modified Atmosphere Packaged Chilled Foods written by G. D. Betts and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide provides advice to assist manufacturers with the safe production of vacuum packaged and modified atmosphere packaged food products. It is an essential reference document for anyone producing these foods - including small scale operators.Vacuum and modified atmosphere packaging are highly effective ways of preventing food spoilage but can create conditions which may lead to growth of anaerobic organisms such as Clostridium botulinum. This code of practice gives clear and practical advice on what conditions must be met in order to give chilled vacuum-packaged foods a shelf-life of more than 10 days. It details why such precautions are necessary and, in simple terms, explains the science behind the conditions under which psychrotrophic Clostridium botulinum will grow and produce toxin, and importantly when it will not, so enabling manufacturers to produce a range and variety of safe chilled products. It also gives background information on current relevant legislation and packaging aspects.The advice given here updates that given in the first edition of the code, published in 1996, and takes into account the review of recommendations undertaken by the Food Standards Agency in 2008.

The final chapter of the book examines systems used in the evaluation of thermal processes and the development of time temperature integrators (TTIs) to ensure the safety of thermally processed food. An up-to-date survey of essential techniques and the science behind them, this volume is a critical reference for food industry professionals.
Download or read book Microbial Safety of Minimally Processed Foods written by Vijay K. Juneja and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-12-03 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While minimally processed foods satisfy the increasing demand for foods with fewer preservatives, higher nutritive value, and fresh sensory attributes, they also carry a greater risk of diseases if they are improperly handled. This book explores novel food-borne disease prevention solutions from the perspectives of food producers, handlers, consumers, inspectors, and researchers. It reports on the latest research on assuring the microbial safety of meats, poultry, fish, vegetables, fruits, and bakery products that receive less than stringent sterilizing preparation. It also explores methods used for pathogen detection and preventing future pathogen occurrences and evaluates HACCP regulations and risk assessments.

Download or read book Technology of Reduced Additive Foods written by Jim Smith and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since some food additives have been shown to be harmful to certain individuals, a common perception now is that all food additives are potentially dangerous. This had led to a large market for products making minimal use of additives. Tight regulatory control and labelling requirements provide further impetus for the development of these products. This book provides an authoritative and comprehensive review of the industrially important advances in the technology that allow food products to be manufactured with fewer of the additives that have been traditionally used. Also, many new natural and harmless ingredients and additives are becoming available. These are also covered to enable new product concepts to be considered. The first edition of this book was widely accepted as a key reference in this subject, and this new edition has been thoroughly revised throughout to reflect current trends and practice. The chapters on packaging, marine-derived ingredients, animal-derived ingredients and reduced-additive breadmaking have all been extensively revised and additional authors and co-authors have been recruited for the second edition. Topics such as active packaging, good manufacturing practice, HACCP and natural ingredients have been reviewed with regards to their effect on the technology of reduced-additive foods.

Download or read book Reducing Salt in Foods written by David Kilcast and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2007-02-14 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concerns have grown that consumption levels of salt are well above those needed for nutritional purposes and that this can lead to adverse effects on health, in particular cardiovascular disease. Consumers are increasingly looking to reduce their salt intake, making salt reduction a priority for food manufacturers. This is not straightforward, though, as salt plays an important role in food preservation, taste and processability. Written by a team of international experts, Reducing salt in foods provides a unique review of current knowledge in this field. This book is divided into three parts and discusses the major issues concerned with salt reduction and how it may be achieved. Part one reviews the key health issues driving efforts to reduce salt, government action regarding salt reduction and the implications of salt labelling. Consumer perception of salt and views on salt reduction and are also discussed. The second part focuses on the technological, microbiological and sensory functions of salt and strategies that can be taken to reduce salt. The final part of the book outlines strategies which have been taken to reduce salt in particular food groups: meat and poultry, seafood, bread, snack foods, dairy products and canned foods. Reducing salt in foods is an essential reference for health professionals, governments and food manufacturers. Discusses methods to reduce salt while maintaining food sensory quality, shelf-life and processability Provides a unique review of current knowledge in this field An essential reference for health professionals, governments and food manufacturers
