Book Safety and Microbiological Quality

Download or read book Safety and Microbiological Quality written by Fabienne Remize and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The safety and microbiological quality of fermented foods covers complementary aspects of such products. Food fermentation is primary intended to improve food preservation, thereby modifying food properties. However, the management of chemical and microbiological hazards is a leading aspect for innovative processing in this domain. Similarly, microbiological quality in fermented foods is of peculiar importance: all microorganisms with a positive effect, including probiotic bacteria, fermentative bacteria, Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces yeasts, can be relevant. The fitness of pro-technological microorganisms impacts nutritional quality, but also sensory properties and processing reliability. This book provides a broad view of factors which determine the safety and microbiological quality of fermented foods. A focus is made on the interconnection between starter properties and the expectations related to a probiotic effect. All chapters underline the involvement of fermented foods towards better resource management and increasing food and nutritional security, especially in developing countries.

Book Microbiology Handbook

Download or read book Microbiology Handbook written by Rhea Fernandes and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2009-02-20 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milk and dairy products form a central part of the human diet, as they are rich in nutrients. On the other hand, because of their high nutrient value, they favour rapid microbial growth. In some cases, this microbial growth is beneficial, while in others it is undesirable. Dairy products may be contaminated with pathogens or microbial toxins; therefore, the microbiology of these products is of key interest to those in the dairy industry. 'Microbiology Handbook - Dairy Products' provides readers with an easy-to-use reference to microorganisms found in milk and dairy products. The handbook covers: initial microflora; sources of contamination; effects of processing on the survival and growth of microorganisms; spoilage; and hazards identified with the consumption of these products. First published in 1995, the book is now in its 3rd edition, underlining its usefulness as a reference guide. As with the previous editions, this fully updated book presents the information under the following key product categories: Liquid Milk Products; Concentrated and Dried Milk; Cream; Butter and Spreads; Cheese; Fermented Milks; Ice-cream Products.

Book Microbiology and Biochemistry of Cheese and Fermented Milk

Download or read book Microbiology and Biochemistry of Cheese and Fermented Milk written by B.A. Law and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of Advances in the Microbiology and Biochemistry of Cheese and Fermented Milk was aimed at the gap in the literature between the many excellent technical texts on the one hand, and the widely scattered scientific literature on the other. We tried to present the state of the art in pre competitive research in a predigested, yet scientifically coherent form, and relate it to the marketable properties of fermented dairy products. In this way, researchers could use the book to mentally step back from their specializations and see how far they had progressed as a community; at the same time we hoped that R&D-based companies could use it to assess the utility (or lack of it) of the research output in setting out their research acquisition strategy for product improvement and innovation. In a sense, the first edition could claim to have initiated Technology Foresight in its limited field before Government caught the idea, and it certainly gave the science base an opportunity to display its talents and resources as a potential source of wealth creation, well before this became an 'official' function of publicly funded science and technology. Thus, the first edition was intended as a progressive move within the growing science and technology literature, and judged by its market success, it seems to have served precisely that purpose.

Book Dairy Microbiology Handbook

Download or read book Dairy Microbiology Handbook written by Richard K. Robinson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-03-11 with total page 781 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, milk and milk products are indispensable components of the food chain. Not only do individual consumers use liquid milk for beverages and cooking, but food manufacturers use vast quantities of milk powder, concentrated milks, butter, and cream as raw materials for further processing. Effective quality assurance in the dairy industry is needed now more than ever. This completely revised and expanded Third Edition of Dairy Microbiology Handbook, comprising both Volume I: Microbiology of Milk and Volume II: Microbiology of Milk Products, updates the discipline’s authoritative text with the latest safety research, guidelines, and information. Pathogens have become a major issue in dairy manufacturing. Escheria coli is a concern, and milk-borne strains of Mycobacterium avium sub-sp. paratuberculosis have been identified as a possible cause of Crohn’s disease. Even little-known parasites like Cryptosporidium have caused disease outbreaks. Consequently, a hazard analysis of selected control/critical points (HACCP) in any manufacturing process has become essential to prevent the contamination of food. This volume also: -Discusses new diagnostic techniques that allow a pathogen to be detected in a retail sample in a matter of hours rather than days -Provides thorough coverage of dairy microbiology principles as well as practical applications -Includes the latest developments in dairy starter cultures and genetic engineering techniques -Offers completely updated standards for Good Manufacturing Practice Quality control and product development managers, microbiologists, dairy scientists, engineers, and graduate students will find the Third Edition of Dairy Microbiology Handbook to be a vital resource.

Book Food Safety Management

Download or read book Food Safety Management written by Y. Motarjemi and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many countries of the world, the dairy industry is one of the most important food sectors and it has, by and large, been very successful in providing safe products. Nevertheless, the dairy sector, like other food sectors, also has its challenges, as from farm to the point of consumption, dairy products can become contaminated with a broad range of microbial and chemical hazards. The sources of contamination are multiple and the pathways are complex. Contamination of milk can occur directly by dairy animals shedding pathogens into the milk, or indirectly by contamination of the milk during the milking process, collection and transportation. Infected animals or asymptomatic carriers can shed the organisms in the feces and contaminate the milk through the environment. Other sources of environmental contamination are water, pests, soil, feces, pets and contaminated feed. Infected farmers, not respecting hand hygiene, are also a potential source of contamination of milk. During milking, collection and transportation, milk can be subjected to further contamination by the equipment and/or be subjected to time–temperature abuse, creating optimum conditions for microbial growth. Hence, ensuring safety of milk and dairy products starts on the farm with animal health, quality of feed, a hygienic environment and, in general, good animal husbandry. Nevertheless, pasteurization of milk is necessary to kill any surviving organisms and reduce the risk of illness to an acceptable level. Provided that hygienic measures are taken to prevent any post-process contamination, milk and dairy products can be produced and consumed safely. The present chapter reviews risks and control measures all along the production chain.

Book Microbial Food Safety Along the Dairy Chain

Download or read book Microbial Food Safety Along the Dairy Chain written by Edward M. Fox and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dairy chain is an integral part of global food supply, with dairy food products a staple component of recommended healthy diets. The dairy food chain from production through to the consumer is complex, with various opportunities for microbial contamination of ingredients or food product, and as such interventions are key to preventing or controlling such contamination. Dairy foods often include a microbial control step in their production such as pasteurization, but in some cases may not, as with raw milk cheeses. Microbial contamination may lead to a deterioration in food quality due to spoilage organisms, or may become a health risk to consumers should the contaminant be a pathogenic microorganism. As such food safety and food production are intrinsically linked. This Research Topic eBook includes submissions on issues relating to the microbiological integrity of the dairy food chain, such as the ecology of pathogenic and spoilage organisms through the dairy farm to fork paradigm, their significance to dairy foods and health, and genomic analysis of these microorganisms.
