6. Food spoilage owing to microbial activities
Caused by yeasts,fungi or bacteria
either toxic in nature or produce toxic chemical
eg.bread mould
Food spoilage owing to chemical changes
Oxidation of glycerides-> peroxide
Oxidation of phenols-> browning of apple
9. 1.Killing of micro-organisms
-micro-organisms found everywhere
-rapid growth in damp & warm environment
-Produce toxic substances ,harmful to man
2.Inhibition of microbial growth
-reproduce by simple cell division
-necessary to keep food in conditions that are not favourable for microbial growth
10. 3.Retardation of chemical or biochemical changes
-food undergo chemical or biochemical in storage even the absence of micro-organisms
-Removal of air or water from food, and the inhibition of enzyme activities are common methods used to read the chemical or biochemical changes in food.
