Ans: Foon SpoiLace Food cannot last forever food weather fruits, vegetable or cereal grains\ begiflito deteriorate once they are harvested, Similarly meat begins to deteriorateysoan after slaughter of the animal CAUSES OF FooD SPOKAGE There are different factors which can cause food spoilage some aré astollows Moisture: The agricultural products if exposed to higher humidity, oF iN moistire begin to decay due to the growth of moulds and bacteria Microbial Activities: The food is also spoiled by biologic cal attack of pests, hitrobs and other pathogens. Chemical Charges Some food enzymes also cause the fdadspéllage. Sometimes yeast moulds and bacteria also produce enzymes which «@htaminale the food products. The chemical and biochemical changes render the fatsiahd olls rancid and are also responsible for browning of fruits and vegetables, FOOD PRESERVATION: The food needs to bé stared difid supplied to distant areas. For this purpose food has to be preserved to minimize chances of spoilage. There are different methods of preservation of foods. Some ofithe Mnast widely used ones are described below. Removal Of Moisture: {h this Process to preserve food moisture is removed by the drying process milk, coffee, 108, some vegetables, fruits, meat and eggs are dried to preserve. Darted foods are e u stone and transport because they occupy less volume. This use of technique restr growth of microorganisms, ‘Addition Of Salt And Sugar: To increase the shelt life of many sausages sugar and salt are added to them the sugar and salt bied the water to prohibit the growth of microorganisms. In this way fuel Is preserved from spailing The water binding agents are known as humectants. Chapter # 18 Chemical Industries Chapterwise Temperature Control: Temperature control is another way to pressure the food against the microorganisms growth. Refrigeration or gracing of food lowers the environmental temperature for the growth of many harmful organisms. Storage: When faod is required to be stored for long period it is treated with heart treatment employing different methods. Following are the two main methods usedfoF\storage of food. Canning: Canning is another method of food preservation. In this method fo6kb is Sealed into air right containers. The containers may be of metal which may be'plastic-lined aluminum or special strength glass. The raw food is packed intalthe container sealed and the whole package is then treated with heat ina steam pressute sed to cook the food and sterilize both the container and the contents. Irradiation Radiation can be used to preserve food such asiheat potatoes and onion etc. In this process radiation is passed throughithé foods!the radiation is comprised af alpha (2), beta (f) and Cy) ravs. The processus known as irradiation and leaves no residual radioactivity in the food. Chemical addition: Sometimes to process fo6d certain chemical substances are added in small proportion, in the food, These chemicals ate salts of calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium. Sodium sulphite andipatassium mets-bisulphite are used to prevent the growth of micro-organisms, Sodium dihydrogen phosphate is incorporated to improve the texture Magnesitim hydroxide reduces the acidity in foods Addition of common salt preserves meat and fish items Propanotc acid, benzoic acid and their salts prevent the bread and cheese from moulds and yeasts. Drysfruits, jams and jellies are preserved by the addition of sulphur dioxide or salts sulphurous acid
